Are you considering remodeling your home? Maybe you’ve been on the edge for some time, and for good reason. Deciding to remodel your home is a big commitment, and not a decision to come to lightly. If you’re thinking of remodeling, here are some reasons to remodel and some facts to quell any worries you might have.
Good Credit=Good Time to Remodel
Though the housing market has bottomed out and is starting to turn around, banks are still dealing with a lot of bad loans on which they have lost a lot of money. If you’re looking for a loan to remodel and you’ve got good credit, a bank will probably be happy to provide you a loan on good terms to make back some of the money they lost on bad loans.
Fast Project Completion Times
Contractors everywhere are looking for work, so they’re taking smaller jobs and getting started on them sooner. This works in your favor, as you don’t have to wait for a response from a contractor to get your project started.
Poor Quality Contractors Are Gone
After the market crashed, poor quality contractors who survived on the strength of the housing market couldn’t cut it anymore. This means that the contractors who are still around are still here for a reason. Professionalism and quality work go a long way.
Less Impact on Your Property Tax
While home values are beginning to rise again, they are still not back to normal levels. If you put an investment into your house now, it’s unlikely to see a significant increase in value until the market really picks up again, meaning you can enjoy lower property taxes for the time being. When the market does get back to normal levels and you’re looking to sell, you’ll be glad you did renovations now and had time to enjoy them.
Save Big With Energy Efficiency
Heating and cooling costs have risen significantly in recent years. If you choose an energy efficient design, you can now recoup the cost in much less time than in previous years.
