Is a renovation the right choice for you?
If you find yourself needing more space or craving a change, it’s natural to consider a major renovation as an alternative to selling your property and searching for a new home. After all, renovating allows you to transform your current space without the hassle of moving.
However, before you jump into a costly renovation project, it’s crucial to carefully weigh the pros and cons. You don’t want to invest in extensive renovations only to still find your home falling short of meeting your needs.
Understanding renovation costs
For instance, let’s say you’re in need of a home office, but all the bedrooms in your current property are occupied. The idea of renovating a portion of your basement into that dream workspace might seem enticing at first, but in reality, it’s not as simple as it appears. Consider the additional costs for electrical work, flooring, lighting, and other necessary adjustments. Renovations often end up being more expensive than initially anticipated. Moreover, you’ll need to ponder whether you’d truly enjoy working in a basement setting.
In this scenario, it might be more practical to explore the market for a new home that offers an extra bedroom that can be converted into a home office, or even better, a dedicated office space with abundant natural light and windows!
When a renovation makes sense
Of course, there are situations where a renovation can be the perfect solution. For example, if you’re dissatisfied with your kitchen, upgrading it not only allows you to create the kitchen of your dreams but also adds value to your property.
Ultimately, the question to ask yourself is: “Which option is more likely to lead me to the home I truly desire — a renovation or a new home?”
If your answer leans towards finding a new home, rest assured that there’s likely a property on the market right now that will meet your needs. So, let’s have a conversation.
