Are you thinking about making home renovations? You might wonder: How much of my investment could I get back when I sell the house? Here are some guidelines from Remodeling magazine’s 2021 analysis of remodeling projects around the country, to help give you an idea. Keep in mind that the dollar amounts in the table represent national averages, but what you’ll get back depends on several factors. For example, in the hottest housing markets, springing for a kitchen or bath remodel can return far more – in some cases more than 100% of the cost, according to a Remodeling analysis. At the other end of the spectrum, swimming pools rarely return their cost because many buyers don’t want to pay more for a house just to own a pool they may not even want. When you choose kitchen cabinets, countertops and flooring, aim for classic or neutral colors and styles. For example, if you want purple walls in your kitchen to match the purple grout on your fireplace, that could be fine if you’re planning to stay in the house the rest of your life. But don’t expect others to equally love your unique choices. Last but not least, how will you pay for these renovations? Ideally, you have already set aside funds for these renovations. If not, should you take equity out of your home via a refinance? This could be a good option for you if you planned to refinance anyway and the equity is pulled out with a reduced interest rate that does not push your monthly payment above what you were previously paying. What about your cash reserves? In general, using money from your emergency fund may not be the right move. Footnotes * DeKorne, C. (2021, May 12). Key Trends in the 2021 Cost vs. Value Report.
