Before you're going to do any remodeling, you should check out the existing market for another home. If you don't do it before you remodel, there's going to be at least one moment during the remodel when you do . . . and you're going to find that you can't afford to move anyway. So part of the process becomes coming clear about liking where you live. |
If you're going to be there a while, you can ride those ebbs and flows (in the market). |
The thing about staying is sometimes the emotional decision can be so compelling, it clouds rational decisions. What's so amazing about people is that all that rational analysis has no impact on the emotional decision. |
You're going to need to take it out when you remodel, to remind yourself why you (chose to) remodel. |
