How To

How much money do I need to spend on my old house's restoration?

The cost of renovating a home depends on how many rooms it is, what kind of renovations, where it is located, and whether the work will be done by professionals or you. Depending on the size and scope, renovations can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $50,000.

You'll probably get less than the market value of your home if you don’t include the cost of repairs, upgrades and other improvements. If you don't put enough effort into your home before it sells, you could even lose money. If you put enough effort into making your home look great, it will increase the price you receive when you sell it.

These factors can help you make a decision about which projects to take on first.

  • Your budget. You can start small if you have limited funds. If you have a limited budget, it is possible to tackle one room at time, such painting walls or replacing flooring. For major renovations, you can either hire a contractor who specializes on kitchen remodeling or save money.
  • Your priorities. You decide what you are going to do with your home. One issue can become a major problem quickly, so it's important to choose a single area. For example, if your roof leaks after it rains you may have to replace it sooner than expected.
  • Your timeline. Your timeline. For example, if you're looking to buy a new place next year, you probably wouldn't want to install hardwood floors or replace your bathroom fixtures right away. For these types of updates, you may wait until your house is sold to make the necessary changes.
  • Your skills. Find someone to help you if you don't have the necessary skills. If your carpentry skills don't allow you to build custom cabinets, then it might be possible to hire a cabinetmaker to help you.
