According to Remodeling’s 2017 Cost vs. Value report renovation projects inthe Bay Area generally have a high payback percentage with approximately 3 out of 4 showing a return exceeding 100 percent.
Jobs such as adding manufactured stone veneer, a replacement garage door or attic insulation can bring a return of 190 percent, depending on the region.
Analysts expect remodeling to continue strong in 2017 both as a result of rising mortgage rates, which will induce many homeowners to renovate rather than purchase a new property, and also price appreciation which will increase home equity lines of credit for many.
