Florida Home Additions Plan

Like many young homeowners, Lynne and Brad Wilde had a number of good reasons for wanting to tear out their old kitchen and start over. The work area was cramped, the space dark and uninviting and the appliances were barely working. 'The oven switched from bake to broil all by itself and scorched dinner ?usually when we had company,' Lynne says.

But the Temple, Texas, couple had at least one good reason why they couldn't consider a major kitchen renovation. 'With all our other financial obligations,' Lynne explains, 'a new kitchen had to be put on hold for a few more years.'

So they put off the total remodel and family room addition they had blueprints for. Instead, they brightened the existing kitchen and made it work better with what they call an interim face-lift - freshly painted cabinets as well as new counters, flooring and appliances. Each change was tied into their future plans to add more cabinets, an island and a family room.

The Wildes' 'new' kitchen cost just $6,153 (a major remodel typically costs close to $20,000). 'Going this route bought us time and made the entire house more cheerful and livable without getting us deeply into debt,' Lynne says.

A house properly priced is half sold. But there are plenty of ways to price it improperly.. * You can't go by what you paid for the place. Perhaps you bought two years ago when local prices were skyrocketing, and things have cooled off since. Perhaps houses like yours can now be bought for less, and if you hold out for what you paid, you'll just waste your time.. On the other hand, perhaps prices in your area have taken off, and you'd short-change yourself if you just tried to "get my money out" (but you'd have a fast sale.). * You can't go by how much you've spent on improvements. A given street will support only a given price range. If you've invested so much that yours would be the most expensive house on the street, the buying public is...
