Having your kitchen remodeled is the #1 remodeling project priority
for most homeowners today, You might want to have it updated for better use and convenience or just
for the joy and the beauty that you have helped create with one of our Designers. Some homeowners are looking to improve their home to prepare to sell. What every the reason is all home
owner's are concerned with the same question?
Will my
home increase in value to recover the costs whether I am selling today or in years from now? Today's Real Estate markets analysis today states that the average homeowner will get 80%
plus return on the direct costs. Even though you might not recover the entire direct costs there are many indirect
costs and reasons to update your home to make it more desirable to the potential buyer. The Real Estate
markets states that there are more potential home buyers looking at older homes will be more interested in looking
at homes that have been updated (kitchens as #1) making the home more desirable and will have higher showing activity from
potential buyers. This normally results in a buyer willing to pay the seller asking price, shorter time
listed on the market, allowing the seller to move on to their next indenture.
When a potential buyer views a home that needs improvements will typically
want allowances and a discount in the asking price to enable them to make the updates theirselves. If you are not willing
to lower the price of your home or make the updates they are requesting this could cause the delay in selling your home,
longer time on the market, lower selling price and the loss of potential buyers.
