Sell or Renovate? Things to Consider
by Yours Tyleau WebmasterOur house is so much more to us than
simply a place where we live. It’s woven into the very fabric of our life. We
carefully selected the type of property we wanted, and looked for a home that
reflected our sense of beauty and style. A lot of time and effort went into
finding the perfect neighbourhood for ourselves and for our family. Making sure
there were good schools in the area was so important too.
When you originally purchased your home,
it was very likely the culmination of your hopes and aspirations. Over time, your
needs might have changed and you might be dreaming of improving the
functionality and beauty of your home. You might even wonder if there is
something better out there for you, and if you should sell the place you call
home.
Your Emotional
Attachment to Your Home
If you have outgrown your existing home,
and are wondering whether you should sell or renovate, there are a number of
things to consider. One of the key
factors that will guide your decision-making is how you feel about your home.
There are so many memories, so many
beautiful life events and celebrations that are connected with our homes. Renovating, and having Home Renovations Sydney add a first floor addition, might be a better approach than selling if
your emotional attachment to your home is strong.
Is the Timing Right
for Your Family
When you are trying to decide whether to
sell or renovate, you also have to consider the overall effect on your family.
Although remodeling can be disruptive at times, it’s far less stressful than
putting your house on the market, packing up everything and looking for a new
place to live.
Sometimes homeowners and families decide
that remodeling with Home Renovations Sydney can be an easier approach than placing your
house and property up for sale.
Cost Comparison
Between Selling and Renovating
If you are contemplating putting your
house on the market and shopping for a new home, you’ll have to be sure to
account for major expenditures such as the agents commission and marketing.
Stamp duty in southern Australia also ups the cost substantially.
With a renovation, you have more options since you can tailor the extent of your changes to your available budget. Major additions can have a higher price tag, but you’ll also want to do your research so you understand just how much a big renovation can add to the value of your home.
