Kitchen remodel brings large return on investment

If you live in the Pacific Northwest and have ever considered a kitchen remodel, here’s some good news for you: not only will you be making your living space more enjoyable, but you’ll be making a smart investment!

According to home improvement cost data from Remodeling Magazine, a minor kitchen remodel in the Pacific Northwest costs an average of $21,554. However, when you sell your house, not only will it likely sell easier with an updated kitchen, but you’ll be able to make a 104 percent return on what you paid for the remodel, leveling out around an average of $22,336.

So what exactly goes into a minor kitchen remodel? The biggest part of the job is easily replacing laminate counter tops and floors, replacing appliances with newer, more energy-efficient models, and changing out the fronts of cabinets with new, raised-panel wood doors and drawers (and don’t forget the new hardware for them!). A new sink and faucet as well as repainting the trim to freshen it up will finish off the job.

A kitchen remodel is one of the best home remodel projects you can do to invest in in the Pacific Northwest, for a return on your investment at 104 percent. Adding a new wooden deck tops the list at a 109 percent investment, and a basement and an attic bedroom remodel follow closely behind the kitchen remodel at 102 percent.
