Everyone asks "when should I remodel my home". It is not about when it is more about "why". The why is the most valuable question because it is a matter of money and time and the disorder that a remodel brings to your life.
Easy rule to follow:
If it is for you and you will enjoy the beauty of the remodel. Then budget big, do not settle for the cheap stuff.... This is a great opportunity to be "bougee" be "high class".
If you are selling soon then "update" is a better word than a remodel. Update is replacing carpet, replacing the doors, replacing the cabinets. You will need to combine updating with what is currently in fad. What colors are popular, what stains, what materials.
Keeping a solid handle on the budget is key in either case.
When you are budgeting you are looking at the these to factors;
For Me
For Them
For me needs to cater to you and your dreams or desires.
