Interior vs. Exterior
When there is only so much room in the budget, it can be tempting for homeowners to gravitate towards the most common remodeling projects, like overhauling the bathroom or kitchen. However, you may want to put those plans on pause.
The National Kitchen and Bath Association reports that the average American spends around $19,000 on full kitchen and bath remodels with unpredictable rewards as styles and tastes are subjective to each homeowner. In fact, out of the 29 ranked projects on the Cost vs. Value report, not a single type of kitchen or bath renovation ranks higher than 17th.
With these figures in mind, it’s more financially prudent to invest in enhancing your home’s curb appeal. Installing a midrange or upscale garage door results in a 76.9 and 85 percent ROI, respectively
As a result, a garage door upgrade was ranked as the NUMBER ONE project for upscale projects and a top five project for mid-range projects!
