Strategies for Appreciation

In the ever-evolving landscape of real estate, maximizing the value of your home is not just a goal; it's a strategic necessity. Whether you're looking to sell in the near future or simply want to ensure your investment grows over time, understanding how to unlock your home's potential for appreciation is crucial. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore proven strategies and expert tips to elevate your property's worth and position it for long-term success in the market.

Understanding Appreciation

Before diving into specific strategies, let's first grasp the concept of appreciation in real estate. Appreciation refers to the increase in the value of a property over time. It can be influenced by various factors, including market conditions, location, property improvements, and overall demand.

Strategic Renovations

One of the most effective ways to enhance your home's value is through strategic renovations. However, not all renovations yield the same return on investment. Focus on improvements that are likely to appeal to potential buyers and add significant value to your property.

• Kitchen Upgrades: The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home. Investing in modern appliances, countertops, and fixtures can greatly enhance its appeal and value.

• Bathroom Remodeling: Updated bathrooms are highly sought after by buyers. Consider upgrading fixtures, installing new tiles, and improving storage space to increase your home's overall value.

• Curb Appeal: First impressions matter. Enhance your home's exterior by investing in landscaping, fresh paint, and attractive entryways to boost curb appeal and attract potential buyers.

Energy Efficiency Improvements

In today's environmentally conscious world, energy efficiency is a significant selling point for homebuyers. Investing in energy-efficient upgrades not only reduces utility costs but also enhances the overall value of your property.

• Insulation: Proper insulation can improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs, making your home more appealing to potential buyers.

• Energy-Efficient Appliances: Upgrading to energy-efficient appliances not only reduces energy consumption but also adds value to your home by appealing to eco-conscious buyers.

• Smart Home Technology: Incorporating smart home technology, such as programmable thermostats and energy-efficient lighting systems, can make your home more attractive to tech-savvy buyers and increase its value.

Market Trends and Timing

Timing can significantly impact your home's appreciation potential. Stay informed about current market trends, including supply and demand dynamics, interest rates, and economic indicators. Selling your home during a seller's market, when demand exceeds supply, can maximize its value and appreciation potential.

• Consult with a Real Estate Professional: A knowledgeable real estate agent can provide valuable insights into current market conditions and help you determine the optimal time to sell your home for maximum value.

• Monitor Interest Rates: Fluctuations in interest rates can affect home affordability and buyer demand. Keep an eye on interest rate trends and consider selling when rates are low to attract more buyers and maximize your home's value.

Smart Financial Decisions

In addition to property improvements and market timing, making smart financial decisions can further enhance your home's appreciation potential.

• Pay Down Debt: Paying down debt, such as mortgages or home equity loans, can increase your home equity and overall net worth, positioning you for greater financial stability and future appreciation.

• Invest in High-Value Upgrades: When considering home improvements, focus on upgrades that offer the highest return on investment. Research local market trends and consult with a real estate professional to identify which improvements are likely to yield the best results.

• Consider Refinancing: Refinancing your mortgage to lower interest rates or shorten the loan term can reduce overall borrowing costs and increase your home equity, ultimately boosting your home's appreciation potential.

Conclusion

Unlocking your home's potential for appreciation requires a strategic approach that encompasses property improvements, market analysis, and smart financial decisions. By understanding the factors that influence appreciation and implementing proven strategies, you can maximize the value of your home and position it for long-term success in the real estate market. Whether you're planning to sell in the near future or simply want to enhance your investment, now is the time to take proactive steps to unlock your home's full potential.

Transcript of Episode #22

This is the show that will help you save and make the most money when it comes to buying or selling your most valuable asset. Now here's your host, broker and founder of your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty of Florida, rick Kendrick.

Happy Sunday, everybody. Welcome to your Home. Sold Guaranteed Radio. I'm Rick Kendrick and I'm here with my broker and my wife, carrie. How you doing this morning, carrie?

I'm doing great. Happy Sunday.

Happy Sunday, man. I'll tell you what Sundays are busy for us, because we have a lot of people coming in this afternoon to visit with us, talking about maybe purchasing a home. We sit down with them right, go over exactly what they're looking for and then we tell them within 72 hours we're gonna get you out there looking at properties. We also not only show them properties that are listed on the MLS, we actually have pocket listings too, right, carrie?

Yeah, so we do manage a huge list of home sellers in the area who have reached out to us at one point or the other, and, although they're not quite ready to put it on the market yet, we do keep those addresses off to the side, just in case we come across a buyer who might be a good fit.

Yeah, you know it's funny. I was talking to one of our sellers this morning. She's just not ready to put it on the market yet, right? She says, rick, listen, if you know anybody who's interested in making a purchase it's a 55, an older community she's looking for about a hundred fifty thousand dollar, but she doesn't want to do until January or February because she's got things that she wants to do. But that doesn't matter. Buyers are walking to us and if they're looking for something for a hundred fifty thousand dollars we can judge the time for her, where I'm sure if a buyer wants to and they can get it for a great deal like a hundred fifty thousand dollars, heck, they'll watch you. February for it, right?

For sure, yeah, so the flexibility is key, especially for a lot of the sellers that we're speaking with.

We offer three consumer benefits that no other brokerage out there offers. Listen, we'll offer our buyers who come with us on our VIP program a 12 month warranty covering all their appliances, including their AC system, including what we'll do if they're not happy with that home in the first 24 months. Guess what? Kerry?

Will buy it back or sell it for free.

We'll sell it for free. Man money comes out of my pocket, but that doesn't happen because I usually find the house that they really like. So, more importantly, they're never obligated. What we do for you is unique. We give you guarantees to follow through with us. So anyway, kerry, just wanted to kind of let you know we got, like we have, four appointments this afternoon. We're looking forward to it. If anybody out there is looking to sell their place or looking to do something, just to let you know, I got four buyers coming in. This may be a right fit for them. So you can give me a call at 561-901333 or rickhasdabuyerscom. I'll come out, take a look at your property, give you a free market evaluation, sit down with you, kind of go over all your closing calls. How's that sound, kerry? Do you think that'd work?

Yeah, for sellers who are thinking of moving, it's a great start to have Rick stop by your place. You can give him the grand tour, show him all the improvements that you've made to your place over the years. He can take those improvements into account whenever he is giving you a likely sales price hey, that's great, hey.

So you know that brings up our topic for today unlocking your home's potential strategies for appreciation, increasing the value of your home. But before we get to that, let's hit some numbers and see what the numbers look like now, kerry yeah, so we do monitor the numbers right.

So, year to date, what we're watching out for is months of inventory. So is the supply of homes on the market going up, and by a drastic amount, which as of now, it isn't. We're still hovering in that three to four month range. We also monitor what's happening with the average sales price and the median sales price, and they're kind of consistently in that four to five percent year-to-date up over last year so just curious.

So when Palm Beach County, what's the medium household price? The median sales price is 450 you know what, in Florida, the whole state of Florida, you want the medium household prices $402,000. So does that tell you something? A little bit about Palm Beach County.

Absolutely, we're strong, we're strong we're in the toys that they're in that three to four month range sellers pay attention to what we're saying.

Prices aren't going down, they're going up. Medium household prices, if you look at history, continued to go up. So what else we got? How about average? How days on the market? So right now, year to date, the average days on the market is 54 now that's has jumped a little bit, it has gone up, it's inched up a little bit from, I'd say, three months ago, right yes, it is going up just a tad yeah, well, that's okay, listen, if you get the price, you're looking for sellers, it doesn't matter, right? but it does say to you that the buyers out there are not as many as there were before because of interest rates. But don't worry, interest rates are a variable here. Okay, remember. You marry the home and you date the rate. We tell this to our buyers all the time. If you see a house you really really like, listen, go ahead and make it off for in that house. Believe me, you're going to be happy in the long run, is that right, kerry?

yeah, and we can get creative with the interest rates right. So now the interest rates are coming down just a tad, all right, but their forecast to come down even more going into next year. But what that's likely to do is that's likely to have the effect of rising home prices whenever the interest rates do come down. So if you're in a situation where you can get yourself into a house now, we can do some creative things through seller concessions, working with the lender to get you a lower rate, like the first and second year of your mortgage, and then even potentially you know refinancing if the rates do go down substantially.

Here's the big thing. Buyers just understand we still have hometown for heroes out there, got plenty of money available, so do you do have down payment assistance? This is a primo time to get involved in this, but you don't want to be buying houses when interest rates go way down. Okay, when interest rates go down, buyers surge out there, they surge out there, so you got twice as many buyers and you cannot negotiate your deal with the seller as far as getting some type of concessions right, carrie.

Yeah. So if you're renting out there and you know you can make the numbers work for you and your family and what we mean by that is if you can afford the monthly payment okay, you shouldn't really be too concerned about what's happening with the rates or what the home price is right. What you're most concerned about is what your monthly payment is going to be. All right, and we like to get people into home ownership because that is where a wealth is created, right? According to studies, what home ownership has 40 times higher net worth than renters.

Can't beat it. I've never, in the longest I've been in business, a buyer's called me back and said hey, rick, I made a bad deal, I paid too much for that house. Hasn't happened to me yet. Okay, understand the last 10 years. Okay, you look at the equity built in a home it's doubled on a national level. Think about that. So, just to let you know, when we first started our business, our average sale on a home okay, our average sale that we did was like $200,000. Our average sale on a home right now is between $500,000 and $600,000. That's the market talking. Okay, that's because prices continue to go up, right, kerry?

For sure, yeah, so if you're renting and you have a desire to own a home, there's obviously a lot of benefits to that right. So one being the financial security you're building, the wealth for you and your family.

But also you're giving them something that they come to every day and they feel home. It feels like a place that they can go to every day, right, yeah?

and you've got tax benefits, of course. So you know homeowners are able to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes. All right. Also, better borrowing terms, right. So whenever you're trying to get loans on other things, they're actually giving you credit for being a homeowner. Your credit scores tend to be higher. All right. And you know, when you get into the retirement age you can use a lot of that equity right to help with your retirement years.

So listen, after the break we're going to dive into the tips to maximize your home appreciation and build your wealth. This is Rick Kendrick. With your Home Sold, guarantee Realty, we'll be right back.

Welcome back from the break. This segment. We're going to be talking about our favorite thing appreciating that home that you're looking at. Listen, understand this, sellers. There are five top factors that affect the home value. Okay, properties in the area that are comparable to yours will influence the price of your home the neighborhood, the neighborhood that you live in. The age and the condition and this is what we're going to cover today is the age and the condition of the property. Property size if you got a big property adds a little bit more value to it and, of course, as we all know, the state of the housing market, interest rates, whatever you want to call it. Low inventory that affects the market also. But let's tackle this first one. I think it's pretty important is condition of the property and what we see would add value to your property. So, kerry, what's on the top of your list there as far as what would add value to the property?

Well, I think whenever you're thinking about what you can do to your home to really increase the appreciated value of it, you have to look at a couple of different areas, not, you know, not just the interior of the home, but the exterior as well. But if we start with the interior, there's probably the regular maintenance, right. So that's going to have a big impact on the appreciation of your home. Like are you taking care of your roof? Are you taking care of your HVA system?

So you know, when you talk about roof replacement, right, they say on a national level a roof replacement cost is about 40 something thousand dollars. Okay, what that does to your value of your property adds about 25 thousand dollars. So you do recover costs when you look at putting on a new roof. And on top of that, what is the big thing that people are talking about as far as roofs are concerned?

Well, obviously the insurance right Is a big deal.

Insurance. So when I go and I show one of my buyers a property, the number one thing that I look at is the roof, to make sure that's a new roof or it's in that two to three year range, because then you can get that premium value of it. So what else do you think we need to be looking at here, Kerry?

Continuing on with the exterior of the home, I would say you know fresh paint bruising up your front door. Maybe giving it a fresh coat of paint, adding some nice potted plants so that when folks drive up you have that curb appeal. Something as simple as maybe power washing your driveway would make a big impact.

Yeah, you know, making additions or putting something out there that makes your house look more attractive does have value. For example, some sellers would actually would have to replace the siding of their house. If they don't have a CBS house, maybe siding might be an attractive item for them. Okay, the cost of that runs about $15,000 or $16,000, but a resale value does bring it back to them. As far as that's concerned, they can probably recover about 95% of their costs as far as having a nice siding on the side of their house.

Yeah. So as far as like the interior things that you can do inside, obviously you know a fresh coat of paint I would imagine you'd probably recoup almost 100% of that investment into your home. New flooring, all right. New appliances, all right. These things you recoup anywhere between 60% to 80% of your investment.

So when we look at doing remodeling. Okay, you can go to one extreme or the other. Maybe just putting a different flooring in that bathroom would make a big difference, as opposed to tearing everything out, making a very costly, expensive item to do. The cost to renovate these things, you know, can vary from a very small amount, say $20,000, up to $50,000, $60,000 or even $100,000. And when you start to do things like that, then that really starts to knock down as far as you recoup on these investments that you do with the properties.

Yeah, so you do want to avoid over improving, right? So we're not a proponent of over improvement, obviously because you want to make sure that you know you're staying in line with the home values in your neighborhood. But things like you know countertops and you know redoing the cabinets and whatnot can really make a big impact on the appreciated value of your home.

So in Florida Every year we kind of sit on the edge of the chair worrying if we're going to get our hurricane or not. So the two things that really you need to be looking at, if you're looking at creating more value for your house, is replacement of windows and a roof. And we keep on bringing up roofs because I know for a fact, I know for a fact you're being affected by insurance premiums. If your roof is getting into that age of maybe 15 or 20 years old, you may want to be thinking about maybe replacing that roof, probably because if a buyer does come by and take a look at it, I'm telling you they probably will not be able to get insurance, because if they do get insurance, it's going to be extremely high, right, kerry?

Yes.

So the insurance is something that you need to look at as an ongoing situation. Replacement of windows if you put in new windows, you pretty much can get the replacement cost on that right off the bat, probably in that 80 to 90% range if they're high impact windows. And that's what a lot of insurance companies look at. They look at roofs and the type of windows that you have on your property to determine what the premiums are going to be. So, kerry, so let's go back inside. So, before looking at the kitchen and the bathrooms, which do you think would bring on more value to a potential seller as far as resell is concerned?

I think they probably have a comparable increase in value or return on investment rather. So I would imagine that if you're upgrading your kitchen or your bathroom, your return on investment would be anywhere between 60 to 70%, depending upon the extent of the renovation and the materials that you are using.

Don't think you can do this by yourself, all right. You need to be very cautious about what you do. When you do renovations, this is our necessity. In a roof, permits are a necessity and window replacements, permits are a necessity. And, believe me, if you're talking about something that will kill a deal right off the bat, if you did that without a permit, you're gonna have to go through that whole process again, get a permit and have an inspector come out and take a look at her. But if you do not have a permit, permits don't come around in a week or two. They're like 30 to 60 days out. I have friends of mine who are remodeling their house. They've submitted their permit and it's already all taken them close to three months to get a permit. So when you're replacing things like this, make sure you have them permits to do that. So, kerry, you know what's coming about right now. Like we were talking about high-impact windows. Not only are they energy efficient, so what's the big thing going on right now? People are looking what for? For energy efficient improvements right.

So you know if we're talking about doing things to your home that is going to affect the amount of appreciation that you're going to enjoy over the years. Obviously, things like energy efficiency and Smart home technology is something you would want to consider incorporating into your home, right? So these smart thermostats are estimated to save, you know, 15% on your cooling bill. So if your bill is, you know, $200 a month, that's $2400 a year. So you're saving, you know, $300-400 a month just on electricity. Right, Upgrading your appliances to energy efficient appliances is estimated to save you 20% and your energy costs. Solar panels right, Solar panels is a big one in Florida.

Solar panels are very big right now. You begin to see more and more of this, and all, incidentally, just to let you know, there are Companies that will finance this for you. You'll be able to get a tax advantage on it too, a tax break on it, right?

so there are tax incentives and tax credits for you know, moving your home over to solar energy and it could actually eliminate your electricity bill altogether right, so you could and affect your $200 a month bill could turn into, you know, a small amount of income for you, right, because if you're over producing the energy, you can actually sell that back to the grid right, and why wouldn't we want to sell it back back to them?

So you know, it's really amazing. We're talking about this energy thing because you know, I just I was telling you the other day Our, our electric bill just consistently is up $30 a month. Now, you know, all of a sudden just boom. I guess Florida Power and Light had a price increase or something that they didn't tell me about or they did. I'm sure they did tell me about it, I just didn't notice that they put out a price increase. But is there anything else as far as that green effect that makes it?

Yeah, let's take your water heater, for example. So swapping out your old water heater that you've had forever, you know, could you know, not only is that an improvement to your property, but it could save you, you know, 25% on your water bill right.

So I guess what we're saying here too Is that you know, if you guys in particular sellers are not thinking about maybe making a move right now, be smart in what you do. When you go and do improvements, don't go to the extreme. Don't do extreme European style luxury, imported marble that puts it on the counter there to cost millions of dollars where you're not gonna get your. You know your. Recoup your cost on it. Make it. Make it. It's sensible and logical that you can use this every day.

Yeah, swapping out your. Something as simple as swapping out your light fixtures right with LED lighting. That saves you, you know, 75% and your lighting costs.

I know and I go to home depot and I buy these light bulbs all the time. My wife, what are you doing? Why are you buying all these?

I'm fixing it up and making sure it's got our home a smart home, so I think he's up to like 19 light bulbs. Now that our voice activated.

Yeah, we say Google, hey, all lights out. All of a sudden we go dark.

Yes, yes. So Landscaping and outdoor spaces right, so that can have a big impact on you know, the value of your home as well. An expensive things to do is obviously to maintain your yard right, like take good care of your grass, make sure that you you know You're using, sprucing up your mulch, making nice flowers, maybe adding like an outdoor patio area so carry.

All in all, you know, sellers have equity in their house to do something today, because equity is built up in their home if they've owned it for at least three or four years. Here's the thing. Understand, sellers, you don't necessarily need to have equity to do this. If you are seriously thinking about maybe making a movement, selling it, we have a company called curbie. Oh, that will actually come in, do all those Remodeling, all the updating that you need, and that cost to do that will be put on your closing costs at the end when you sell your place. So you have that available. If you want to go ahead and put your house on the market right now, listen, even if you want to sell your house, you have equity but you don't want to do any improvements.

Yeah, for sure. The size of this condo and the price that we're asking for it is a great deal, but, like Rick mentioned, it does need some TLC.

So we're gonna be meeting our buyers this afternoon sitting down. Well, then we have three buyers that we're gonna be meeting with this afternoon kind of go over and we'll talk about them next week. But these guys I know that we've been talking to probably for the last month now and they just decided to come in and meet with us. So, listen, let's talk about our go through a big mission. Carrie, what's, what's the big thing about that?

Yeah. So Rick and I donate a portion of our income to various charities, and we're on a mission to raise $25,000 this year, and so the one that we're highlighting this time of year is little smiles. So we do collect toys for the holidays. So Rick also likes to mention that if you buy or sell a home with one of our team members and there is a charity that's near and dear to your heart, we would be happy to make a donation on your behalf.
