Home Improvement Projects with High ROI

 

property inspection

Whether you want to renovate to improve the home’s function, efficiency, or value there’s no shortage of improvement ideas in magazines and on the internet. Prioritizing projects with substantial return on investments is an excellent idea. Equally important is having a property inspection performed during and after the remodeling of your house.

A property inspection during and after the improvement project may even be required by city or county ordinances. That is exceptionally accurate if there were any structural changes, such as room additions, made to the home. Kitchen or bath remodels, especially those that involve re-routing electrical wiring or plumbing lines, must also be inspected by a professional home inspector.

To help you choose home improvement projects with substantial return on investments, Remodeling Magazine recently released its annual Cost vs. Value Report, which compares the costs of 22 remodeling projects with the value those projects retain at resale. For 2020, the top five home improvement projects that pay off in the mountain region are:
