Washington, D.C. -- Homeowners who decide to undergo a home improvement project, whether it be interior or exterior modifications, often find that the task was worth the investment and time, according to a new report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), with insights from the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI).
The 2019 Remodeling Impact Report, an examination of 20 projects, surveyed Realtors, consumers who have taken on home renovation projects, and members of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry. The report examines a variety of remodeling projects, using responses to rank the appeal of a given project, the value of the project in terms of resale, and determine its overall functionality. The findings also reveal the reasons for remodeling, the success of taking on the various projects, and the increased happiness reported in the home upon completion of the job.
