Remodel Now and Enjoy Your Updated Home – Don’t Wait Until It’s Time to Sell

With the current short supply of homes available for purchase, buyers may be rushing things so as not to lose out on a home they think they want.  A recent survey of new home buyers showed that many suffer buyers’ remorse, but one category was surprising.  While many purchasers indicate they wish they had chosen a larger home or had found out more about the one they just bought, nearly30% of homeowners regret not remodeling their existing homes.  While acting in haste brings its regrets, it seems that delay has its fair share as well.

While it’s almost a given that you’ll have to do some fix-up when it comes time to put your home on the market, perhaps its time to take a good, hard look at your home and see if there are things you would change right now.  In fact, many homeowners are doing just that, as remodeling rather than relocating seems to be the trend.  Many homeowners are choosing to update their existing homes and protect the investment they already have rather than moving.  And in times of economic uncertainty, that just makes sense.

If you were to put your home on the market today, what changes would have to be made to make your home attractive to buyers?  Another bathroom?  More energy-efficient windows and doors?  Maintenance-free siding?  If you know that a potential buyer will want those features, why not add them for yourself?  Doing so now means you’ll get both the benefit of adding value to your home plus the chance to enjoy the upgrades.

Consider making home improvements in these categories:

  • Items which are in need of repair – things that are broken or worn out (a leaky roof )
  • Areas which are no longer in style or look dated (that orange shag carpeting)
  • Functional changes which make life in your home easier (adding on a bathroom or replacing your wood siding with  maintenance-free siding)
  • Improvements which reduce your energy usage (energy-efficient windows and exterior doors)

Sooner or later your home is going to need some work – why not do it now and get a chance to enjoy the results?  Don’t let the next owner get all benefits!
