Are you ready to start investing money in your home again with remodeling projects? Wonder what remodeling trends are being seen around the country right now by other homeowners just like you that are ready to move past the need to stick to a strict, recession budget?
Per the research done by the website For Residential Pros (forresidentialpros.com), people are no longer going for the luxury remodeling projects like they were before. Instead, they predict that homeowners will be going for the more practical remodeling projects that add value to their home, instead of just making it look cool.
Remodeling Focus #1: Energy-Efficiency
This remodel project in particular will be the focus of those that want to do something to remodel their home, but still have not recovered from the recession yet. While energy-efficient changes are becoming important to most of the population, this group in particular finds this change to be the one that will also save them more money in the long run.
Also with all of the tax breaks and special financing programs available for those that upgrade to energy-efficient products, it just makes sense all the way around from the standpoint of finances.
Remodeling Focus #2: Increasing a Home’s Curb Appeal
This type of remodeling project will be the focus of those that are planning to put their home up for sale sometime in the near future. These remodeling projects will be quick and easy fixes that don’t change anything major, but will make the outside of the home look better.
Projects like replacing front doors, windows, shutters, and garage doors.
Remodeling Focus #3: Repairs
Repairs are something that is just common place when you own a home. But those that are planning this type of remodeling project aren’t just making little repairs here and there. These are the big types of repairs that include replacing roofs that were damaged by storms over the years and could never be properly taken care of because there was no extra money available thanks to the economy. It also includes replacing damaged siding and updating to materials and colors that are popular today.
