Remodeling Impact 2022 Research Results

Homeowners and renters remodel, redesign, and restructure their homes for a variety of reasons. This report takes a deep dive into the reasons a homeowner remodels, the outcome of taking on projects, and the increased happiness found in the home once a project is completed. It also contains:

• The typical cost of 19 remodeling and replacement projects, as estimated by members of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI)
• How much appeal each project is likely to have for buyers, according to REALTORS®
• How much REALTORS® estimate that homeowners can recover on the cost of the projects if they sell the home
