Frequently Asked Questions: Home Value

Does A Bathroom Remodel Increase Home Value?

A bathroom remodel – if done right – will usually provide an excellent Return on Investment (ROI) as far as home improvement projects are concerned. Nationally, a midrange renovation has an average ROI of 70.1%, according to Zillow, a well-known online real estate database.

Here are some of the top ways a bathroom remodel increases a home’s value:

Enhanced Aesthetics: a modern and stylish bathroom can significantly improve the overall appeal of a home to potential buyers. Upgrading fixtures, finishes, and design elements including lighting can create a more attractive and visually appealing space that stands out to buyers. Plus, if you’re going to be in your home for a while you get to benefit from all of this too.

Improved Functionality: a well-designed bathroom remodel makes the space more convenient, useable and enjoyable for everyone. Features such as additional storage, a spacious shower, or a separate soaking tub can meet the needs of modern lifestyles and appeal to buyers seeking convenience and comfort.

Increased Energy Efficiency: installing energy-efficient fixtures and appliances in the bathroom can reduce utility costs and appeal to environmentally conscious buyers. Features such as low-flow toilets, water-saving faucets, LED lighting, and efficient ventilation systems can improve energy efficiency and sustainability, making the home more attractive to eco-minded buyers.

Marketability: a bathroom remodel can increase the overall value of a home by improving its marketability and attractiveness to potential buyers. A well-designed and updated bathroom supports a higher perceived value for the home, leading to increased selling prices and faster sales in competitive real estate markets.

Maintenance Issues: updating and renovating a bathroom can address any existing maintenance or repair issues, such as leaks, water damage, outdated plumbing, or worn-out fixtures. By addressing these issues proactively, potential homebuyers are assured of fewer potential problems and costly repairs down the road.
