How to Make Home Renovations More Affordable

Stop for a minute to really think about your home and the way it is. What is the impression you’re left with? Do you love it? Or are there some improvements you would like to make? The truth is that nearly everyone would like to improve something about their home if money weren’t an issue. The good news is that there are things you can do to make your home renovations more affordable.

Open a Line of Credit

If the total cost of a home renovation is more than what you can afford with what resources you already have, opening a line of credit for the purpose of making your improvements may be an option worth looking into. There are a few different options you can look into. There’s always a credit card, but those tend to have lower credit limits and higher interest rates. If you’ve built up at least 20% equity in your home, can show proof of income, that you have steady employment, and have a good credit score, you may qualify for a HELOC.

Look for Tax Breaks

You may have noticed that the federal government is trying to push for more climate-friendly innovations and conditions (at least one half of them seem to be, anyway). The truth is that this isn’t something that started when Biden became president. Certain green renovations, like adding a solar energy system to your home, are eligible for tax breaks which can help offset the cost of the renovation. You should take advantage of solar tax credits now because they will begin expiring in 2022.

Know When to DIY and When to Call a Pro

One of the things people often do to try to make renovations more affordable is to do them themselves. In some cases, that works out just fine. Not all home renovations require highly specialized tools, knowledge, or skills. If you have all of those things for the project at hand, you may be able to save money on labor with a DIY renovation. That said, leave other home renovation projects to the pros. If you try to do something you don’t have the right tools, knowledge, or skills for, you could wind up making costly mistakes or even injuring yourself. No one wants to pay for a medical bill that could have been avoided.

If there’s a change you would like to make in your home, you don’t have to feel like it’s always going to be out of reach because of the cost. Things like opening a line of credit, looking for tax breaks, and knowing when you can do something yourself and when you need to call for professional assistance are just some of the things you can do to make your home renovations more affordable. Decide what your priorities are and let that help you decide how to best allocate the resources you have.
