Myth #1: Any Remodel Is a Good One
Next: Myth #2: I Can Do It Myself
Some people think that any improvement is a good one, but not all home improvements are created equal. For example, the homeowner of the room at left had a concert hall of his very own in his ranch-style home. Unless the next homeowner is an opera singer, he or she may not want a balcony in the house. When making a renovation like this, keep in mind that you might want to sell the place one day.
