kitchen appliance values
Should I upgrade to a stainless steel refrigerator, if all of the other kitchen appliances are white?
Basically, i just want to know how much stainless steel appliances increase the value of a home.
I already have a nice kitchen (backsplash, granite tile countertop, and wood laminate floors), but I would like to upgrade the appliances. Is it a good idea financially? Would i get my money back when i try to resell?? Stainless steel appliances are expensive. Is it worth it?
I live in a 12 year old house. All of the kitchen appliances are original to the home, so I may have to replace several appliances during my time living here. I know it is important to the value of the home to have matching appliances, so if i upgrade the fridge, I would update the other appliances as well, when they need to be replaced.
(extra info: This is my first home. I’ve lived here for a little over a year and I will probably live here for another 5 years, maybe more…)
I would say yes- go stainless! We just bought our 3rd home, and we wouldn’t even consider a house without stainless. According to our agent, even first time buyers looking for a starter home have stainless steel and granite countertops on their must have list.
I would suggest maybe switching your appliances out one at a time, as your finances will allow it. The fridge will definitely be the most expensive part. Also, appliances have come a long way in 12 years. The energy efficiency is now so much better, and you should expect to save on your utilities as well!
