Need more space for the kids, an aging relative, or a home office? Before making a decision, we recommend determining your overall budget and making a pros and cons list for both options. Make sure to consider these details while making your decision:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Reasons to Renovate<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Established life<\/strong> \u2013 You love your neighborhood, the local schools, your neighbors and your commute to work, but you want to update or expand your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Good Bones<\/strong> \u2013 Your house has good bones but you want to modernize and customize your interior to best suit your family\u2019s needs and wants.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customization<\/strong> \u2013 Customize your home to reflect your family\u2019s style by renovating. You may want to add extra work areas and storage space, open up the kitchen to an adjacent living space, or create a better kitchen layout for cooking and entertaining. Our designers will work with you to create a space that meets your needs, while helping you to select finishes and materials that represent your individual tastes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Room to expand<\/strong> \u2013 If you believe your home has room to expand upwards or outwards, consult with a design-build expert to check your city\u2019s latest zoning restrictions (height, distance to property line, yard dimensions, etc\u2026) to ensure you have adequate space for an addition.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Empty Nesters<\/strong> \u2013 Your children have grown and left the home and you are ready to update your home to fit your new lifestyle.\u00a0 Consider hiring a Certified Aging-In-Place Specialist (CAPS) design-build firm to make your home accessible for the long term.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Greener home <\/strong>\u2013 \u00a0Renovating your home to improve its energy and water efficiency can help you save on energy bills, increase personal comfort, and minimize your home\u2019s impact on the environment.\u00a0 Also, tax incentives and rebates are often available for these upgrades.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avoid stress and expense of moving<\/strong> \u2013 the inconveniences of having a house on the market and the expenses you might incur such as repairs, staging to sell, realtor fees, home inspections, movers and utility startup fees.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Boost home value<\/strong> \u2013 if you plan to stay in your home for a few years, you <em>may<\/em> recoup a good percentage of your renovation costs.\u00a0 <em>Remodeling Magazine\u2019s<\/em> 2015 Cost Vs. Value report for Atlanta puts recoup rates at 67% for a major kitchen renovation (mid-range) or 59% for an upscale version, 64% for a mid-range bathroom remodel or 60% for an more upscale bath renovation, 69% for two-story additions (mid-range project), and 70% for basement remodels (mid-range project).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Reasons to Move<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Existing house does not have room to expand and you will gain more space by moving.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019d like a bigger yard or outdoor area.<\/li>\n<li>You want to move closer to family or friends.<\/li>\n<li>Relocating to a neighborhood with better schools, home values, commute and\/or property taxes.<\/li>\n<li>Prefer not to live through a home renovation (noise, dust, etc\u2026).<\/li>\n<li>Downsizing to a smaller home.<\/li>\n<li>When adding square footage, the existing HVAC, electrical, insulation, roofing, and foundation may be affected and can add up quickly.<\/li>\n<li>By remodeling you may price yourself out of your neighborhood and not get your investment back.\u00a0<em style=\"line-height: 1.6em;\">&#8211; Renewal Design<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Interested in home remodeling?\u00a0Contact<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/medinaexteriors.com\/remodeling-experts\/\">Medina Exteriors<\/a>\u00a0today, (330)591-4040<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home Remodeling | Should You Renovate or Move?
