The Top 5 Home Renovations for Boston, MA

It's hard to believe with all the recent snow, but, SPRING is just around the corner! There is no better time to focus on home renovation than springtime. The weather is (hopefully) milder in spring so renovation doesn't seem so daunting. Many of us also have tax refunds that we can put to good use and invest back into our homes. Springtime may be your best bet for home renovation in your Boston, MA home.

Payback for home renovation projects are finally back on the rise again after nearly a decade of decline. Remodeling Magazine has recently released it's annual Cost vs. Value Report. The payback for home renovation projects rose 9 percent in 2013. Several projects gained more momentum with up to nearly 30 percent gains. Here are the top five renovation projects for Boston, MA based on the payback at the closing table.
