Surprise, surprise! You would think that in these times of slow
inventory turnover and low mortgage rates homeowners would readily favor spending
on home improvement to burnish home value rather than to buff form and boost function.
Contrary to intuition, according to a new survey, homeowners would rather pump
up style rather than equity.
It’s not quite the signal that professional real estate agents
with, say, a South
Carolina Realtor CE, would want to hear from a reawakening real estate
market, but it certainly does say that confidence is coming back to the homeowners
and that they might be priming to sell in the near future.
