Making your kitchen or bathroom remodeling dreams come true is an exciting time for any homeowner. Unfortunately, depending on the scale of your project, building this dream can take time, and, during this period, the affected part of your home becomes inaccessible and unusable. So, the question remains, should you stay in your home during a renovation, or would it be better to move out temporarily until after everything is finished?
There are many arguments to be made for either case, and this could ultimately muddle your decision.
Where is Your Renovation Taking Place?
If your home improvement project is mostly outdoors, there are fewer reasons to move out. For example, adding a porch or a deck will not necessarily get in the way of your or your family’s day-to-day activities. Conversely, renovating a vital room, such as a bathroom, can be problematic if you only have the one bathroom. You can also approach this from a contractor’s perspective. If you think that having your family around will cause massive delays, it may be better to stay out of the way – that is, until all the work is done.
Are Motel Fees Included in Your Budget?
Projects can get expensive, and, unless you’ve taken into account a hotel stay for its duration, you could end up with a much bigger expense than what you’ve expected. If you’re still in the early stages of a remodel, consider adding hotel costs to your budget. However, if you’re not entirely convinced you need to move out, doing away with this addition is perfectly acceptable as well.
