Shopping for a Home? Don’t Forget the Home Remodeling Services Budget
If you’re in the market for a new home, but you’re feeling frustrated because the houses you’ve been looking at aren’t exactly what you want, here’s something we’d like you to consider.
If you find a house that fits your budget but doesn’t have the type of kitchen, the size bathroom, or the finished basement you want, you can buy that house and use our home remodeling services to make it the house of your dreams.
It’s recommended by real estate professionals that your home renovation budget be capped at 1/3 of your home’s value. That’s so you don’t invest more than it’s expected to be worth after renovations are complete.
Think about that. If you’re buying a new home for $300,000 it’s considered a wise decision to spend $100,000 on renovations. Not only will you get the house you want (after renovations), you’ll increase the value of your home so you can recoup money when you sell.
