Do home improvements pay off at appraisal time? In this 60-second POV tour via Meta glasses, a certified appraiser breaks it down while inspecting a renovated property:
Yes, quality upgrades (kitchens, baths, roofing, windows, flooring) can boost value—but NOT dollar-for-dollar. We base it on what buyers in YOUR neighborhood actually pay for similar features (USPAP rules).
Over-improve with luxury finishes in a modest area? That’s “over-improvement”—beautiful, but the market won’t fully reward it. Think caviar on a cheese-pizza budget.
Smart, market-friendly renos (mid-range kitchen, modern bath, neutral timeless style)? Often recoup 70-85%+ in added value.
Renovate for joy first, value second—and talk to a local pro before going all-in.
