When you start searching for the best contractor near me, you probably have a budget in mind. You might wonder, “Is this really worth it?” Well, the numbers say yes. According to the 2024 Cost vs. Value Report, a kitchen remodel is one of the top ways to add real money to your home’s price tag. In our area, a mid-range kitchen update can have a Return on Investment (ROI) of about 62% to 67%.
Many kitchen renovations require permits to ensure compliance with building codes, and it’s important to have the work done correctly to avoid costly issues or delays in the future.
But here is a stat that very few people are discussing: The “Secondary Market” Boost. In a neighborhood like Nottingham, where many houses were built in the same era, having a modern kitchen doesn’t just add value—it makes your home sell faster. Data from Zillow shows that homes with “professional-grade” kitchens can sell for up to 8.2% more than expected. That is a huge deal!
