Sometimes people put off a kitchen remodel until the time comes when they are ready to sell their home. Then they realize that doing a remodel will greatly assist in the selling process. The majority of people looking for a home pay special attention to the features of the kitchen. Don’t believe it? Just watch a few episodes of House Hunters or any of the other similar programs which are now quite popular on television.

Remodeling your kitchen before selling is a very good idea, true. But why wait? The money invested in remodeling your kitchen cabinets, counters and flooring is not usually returned 100% when the home is sold. Depending on the scope of your remodel, you can expect to recoup 50-80% back when selling your home. With that being the case, let’s consider when might be the best time to remodel your kitchen?

If you plan to sell your home in the next two or three years, remodeling now is an excellent investment in both your future and your family’s current level of home satisfaction. Why not do your kitchen remodel NOW and let your family enjoy a beautiful new kitchen for two or three years. That period of time is short enough that your work will still look new and updated when the sale time comes, and yet gives you the time to enjoy your money’s worth with your family in the interim.

What if you have no plans to sell your home? Another perfect time to do a kitchen remodel! Your family will have all the time in the world to enjoy your investment first hand. In addition, you won’t need to remodel with an eye to what future buyers might find appealing. You can go all out in your customization to make the kitchen meet the needs of your family for years to come.

Whether you plan to sell you home soon, in a few years, or never, completing a kitchen remodel that will make that room more functional and updated is a great idea. No other rooms gets as much use as the kitchen. Its truly the center of the home just as much today as in the past.
