Decision - to sell or renovate

Walking in the afternoon is good for my health, though walking and gazing at the houses being demolished, renovated, upgraded sure makes the time go quickly when there can be so much to observe.  What?

• Machines get stuck in the mud during excavation
• Piles of stuff are sitting ready for construction to happen
• Side fences are being pulled down and retaining walls erected
• Houses are being lifted to make use of the available space for the growing family
• Windows and doors are being upgraded
• Decks are being added to increase the living space
• Even just adding a "loo" or shower is a worthwhile thing to do

Nothing wrong with doing improvements in small junks.  Investing in your home, especially when/if the mortgage has been reduced by 15 years, and you have decided this is a pretty good area to live, which often means you are not "going for broke" by doing some building improvements.

Reengineer

Renovate

Refurbish

The conclusion is whatever extra money that is committed, and without breaking the bank, it is a fact that the spend will surely give a "bumper return" in the future.Chapter 6 refers.
