I posted Are Replacement Windows a Wise Home Improvement?<\/a> last month with the chart you see below. Today I thought, why not include the whole story for you? Let’s look at the current Home Improvement Costs vs Values. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"2008<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

So here is a link to the official 2008 Cost vs. Value Report: Still Many Happy Returns for Home Rehabs. If you want to know how different home improvement projects affect the value of your home, this stuff is information gold!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Make sure you check out the whole article but I wanted to include here the National Association of Realtor’s Top 10 Project Paybacks<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Upscale fiber cement siding (86.7%)
2. Midrange wood deck (81.8%)
3. Midrange vinyl siding (80.7%)
4. Upscale foam-backed vinyl (80.4%)
5. Midrange minor kitchen remodel (79.5%)
6. Upscale vinyl window replacement (79.2%)
7. Midrange wood window replacement (77.7%)
8. Midrange vinyl window replacement (77.2%)
9. Upscale wood window replacement (76.5%
10. Midrange major kitchen remodel (76.0%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regional Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

They used to publish how those numbers changed by region here in the United States. So, if for example, you lived here in Louisville, Kentucky, which I assume most of you do, you could find that a Midrange Bathroom Upgrade won’t get you as far (63.8%) as in other parts of the country (66%). I think they’ve found that the data follows cost of living levels so they aren’t extremely helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
