Your Budget

You have the desire to remodel your home. The amount you wish to spend should be your first consideration. Setting a realistic investment range will guide your decisions on the magnitude of your project without putting a strain on your financial resources.

• First determine how long you wish to stay in your home. If you plan on staying in your home for 10 or more years, you should spend as much as you are able to create the home of your dreams.
• Use your home’s value to determine a reasonable budget. Approximately 15% of the home’s value is a good guideline.
• Differentiate between need vs. want. Start your budget by making a list of the things that need replaced the most.
• Research the costs of a variety of products. Visit the showroom to see the products and materials in person in order to determine the quality of what you’re purchasing before you buy it.
