Most families just want a really nice place to live and they work to create their forever home. However, life can be unpredictable. So while it is joyful to make a dream home, those dreams need to be balanced with an understanding of whether or not those granite countertops or that second story are good investments in the long run. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>What is resale value? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We hear the idea of resale value quite often pertaining to real estate. The ideal is to buy a property that is a good investment and to have its value appreciate. Good maintenance and appropriate renovations help ensure that when it comes time to sell again, the property has gained equity and you\u2019ll make money. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the amount of money you\u2019ll make depends on market appreciation. Which is why it\u2019s important to make improvements that fit the property and the neighborhood. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>Location the key factor to consider<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve bought a property by a highway or another not-so-great location, you probably got it for a good price. If that location\u2019s value doesn\u2019t increase during the time you own it, you\u2019ll probably have to sell it for a similarly good price, even if you\u2019ve done a lot of work on it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many property owners invest in renovations that aren\u2019t in keeping with the neighbourhood. As a result, they end up selling for less than they invested, which can be heartbreaking. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you renovate, look at what has been selling around you \u2014 at what cost for what quality? If the most expensive home in your neighborhood sold for $400,000 after being completely renovated, it doesn\u2019t make sense to style your house to a value any higher. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And really, how special are those $10-per-square-foot tiles anyway? Go with the $5 tiles instead. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Focus your investment to one or two elements per room. Make pricey items such as granite countertops, a fancy backsplash, or a higher end faucet; work like show pieces, similar to a piece of art. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;1&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0|0px|29px|0px|false|false&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.3.1&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.montreal-realestate.ca\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Jennifer-Lynn-Walker-Image.png&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.17&#8243; max_width=&#8221;66%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;15px||&#8221; \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.8&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; header_font=&#8221;|600|||||||&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; header_4_font=&#8221;Alegreya||on||||||&#8221; header_4_text_color=&#8221;#aaaaaa&#8221; header_4_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; header_5_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_5_text_color=&#8221;#e02b20&#8243; header_6_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_6_text_color=&#8221;#e02b20&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;45px|||&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;400ms&#8221; animation_starting_opacity=&#8221;100%&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1>MEET JENN<\/h1>\n<h4>Real Estate Broker &amp; Educator<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Jennifer Lynn Walker has specialized in buying and selling both residential and multiplex properties since 2003.
