WHEN IT PAYS TO REMODEL Homeowners may want to assess which home remodeling projects will bring the biggest payoff when it comes time to sell. Unless they are remodel - ing their homes solely to please them - selves, they will want to be mindful of which projects and upgrades potential buyers will value most. According to the 2007 Remodeling vs. Cost Value Report, three of the four projects with the highest national percentage of cost recouped (for the most recent year that data is available) were exterior up - grades. While siding replacement re - couped 88% of the costs upon sales nationwide, wood deck additions and wood window replacements also re - turned more than 80% of costs. The only interior projects garnering more than 80% of remodeling costs were minor kitchen upgrades. Before spending money on upgrades, make sure that your choice of projects will enhance the appeal of your prop - erty to prospective buyers.
