Have been dreaming about remodeling your condo for months and want to jump right into it? Learn several things first to get the most out of your condo renovation.

First, know who you’re remodeling for. When designing for yourself, personal enjoyment might be top priority, but still consider how long you will be in the space and decide what to renovate first accordingly. When renovating for resale, you usually get the best return on investment (ROI) by focusing on a few key areas and skimping on the pretty but unnecessary details.

When reaching out to contractors, it’s important to express a clear vision of what you want to accomplish and a sense of what you can spend. Should your first choice be over your budget, ask your contractor for suggestions on how they might tweak the job to lower the price with minimal impact.

Most importantly, stay flexible and be creative with your plan. Going for a smaller fridge instead of insisting on that large one can free up a lot of space. Also consider building up instead of tearing down: the old metal door frames might not be easy to remove – then, adding a layer over the existing frame may be a better idea. In the end, remodeling your condo can give you many surprises that were not planned.
