Renovations increase your property’s value as long as they are the right kind.
Not all renovations are equal in the eyes of prospective buyers. That’s because some types of renovations have more of a subjective quality to them. For instance, not everyone wants a swimming pool if they have no interest in swimming. Nor do they want a home theatre if they don’t watch a lot of tv or movies. Renos like these take up valuable space and will cost a future owner extra to remove if they don’t want it.
Functionality is key. Renovations that improve or add functionality will give you a better return on your investment. For example, everyone values a kitchen that utilises great workflow design, state-of-the-art appliances and has ample storage space. Likewise, a remodelled bathroom with updated plumbing and fixtures is something people appreciate and want.
If you’re looking to renovate with an eye toward boosting your property value, choose functional renovations. Go ahead and get that dream kitchen and that spa-like bathroom you’ve always wanted. Add more bedrooms. Add a garage. Replace old windows with new energy efficient windows and they’ll be a feature when it comes time to sell.
There are all sorts of ways to improve your property values with large and small renovations. Consult with your local, professional home renovation expert to find out what can work for your home.
