however, that may be an unnecessary
expense.
Finally, a good rule of thumb would be
to not add on anything that is an absolute
necessity, and keep the house flexible.
For example, turning an extra room into
an office or a sunroom is great for people
who want one, but not every future
tenant will need or want it, and it can be
difficult to turn such specific areas into a
bedroom. Bedrooms, on the other hand,
can easily be created in basements, attics,
or possibly den space.
When everything is said and done,
improving a house should be approached
with a view of necessity before anything
else. In today’s world, people move
more than ever for a number of reasons,
and the money we put into a home stays
with that home, even after it is empty.
