Take Advantage of the Recession With Home Remodeling For a ROI
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Billings_Farnsworth]Billings Farnsworth
The United States has never seen such a down market in real estate since World War II. No one can say exactly when the current recession will end. Meanwhile, home sellers are waiting for some kind of sign for the present economy to move upward again. They are reluctant to enter the market place and suffer a sure loss.
While waiting for things to change, homeowners should take advantage of this down time to increase the curb appeal, with a home remodeling which historically guarantees a return on investment (ROI). Here are a few tips on how to get your home ready for sale:
EXTERIOR
o Nice landscaping always gives the seller a return on investment. Start designing and planting now so by the spring, the plants will have matured and established themselves.
o Paint the exterior and trim for a fresh new look. New paint is a definite return on investment.
INTERIOR
o Fresh paint throughout the house gives it a new look, a definite continuation of return on investment.
o Kitchen remodeling and bathroom remodeling are the two major rooms that will provide a definite return on investment.
o Clear out clutter in all rooms. Less is more these days and less clutter gives the home a roomier, more expansive look.
o Fix all plumbing and electrical outlets and wiring throughout the house. If you need to update, this is the time to do it.
These are only a few suggestions to bear in mind when thinking about a remodel, addition or repairs, large or small.
