Your life is going to change over the years, and so should your home. There are a number of home improvement projects that can add value to your property. While these may be quite expensive to undertake, you need to think of it as an investment into your asset. Some projects provide solid returns on resale value, other projects provide great value to you on a personal level. Both of these are important aspects to remember when looking at taking on a large project.
Resale Value
Some projects give you better return on investment on your resale value than other projects. The most bang for your buck, when it comes to home improvements, are maintenance focused projects. Things like new siding, new shingles, and new windows all are great investments. Kitchen and bathroom remodels can be expensive, and their costs are not recouped quite as well. They are not a waste of money, however if you are looking at doing either windows or a bathroom, the windows will help your bottom line out better. Always make sure that the basics are taken care of before moving on to more superficial upgrades.
Personal Value
Not everything is about the bottom line. While being able to sell your home for more money is great, there are some renovations that improve your life while you are still in your home. In San Antonio, a room addition can make a great deal of sense. If you find yourself in a great neighborhood, in a house you love, and the school is close you probably don’t want to move. If there is no longer enough space for your growing family, it may be worthwhile to invest in expanding your home. Moving isn’t something that is easy to do, so finding a way to avoid it pays off for you and your family.
