2023 Home Renovation Trends

2023 brings tons of new ideas and dreams, which includes home remodeling and renovation! Every year, we notice new design concepts that are unique and popular, pushing us to learn new things and create more. We’re all about innovative ideas, building strategies, and forward-thinking in the construction industry, so keeping up with the trends is our natural inclination. We’re excited to see what this year brings and we’re sure you are too!

Rental Renovations

Mountains, rivers, sun, music, food, beer… need we say more? What’s not to love about the wonderful town of Bend? If you live here, you know, and if you’re planning a move, you’ll soon find out. But you may not realize the rising cost of living that you must pay to enjoy its perks. Fortunately, homeowners can take advantage of our growing little city and high demand for housing with rental properties like apartments, homes, ADUs, tiny homes, and vacation rentals of all shapes and sizes. Bend is scattered with housing and properties, old and new, and those who can afford them can usually benefit from renting them out at least temporarily.

So, let’s say you do own or are planning to own a rental property in town. Whether it was just built, or you scored a fixer-upper in the historic district, you’ll need to keep it up and maybe even make some (or many) changes. But before your tenants move in, make sure to do the basic checks for any water damage, need for an exterminator, change any filters, test all smoke detectors, and either has you or a management company available for periodic requests from your incoming tenants.

Now, let’s talk renovations and remodels. You know, the stuff WE can help you with. Take note, that there is a difference between renovating (updating or restoring an existing structure or feature) versus remodeling (changing the entire function of a room or feature design).

Buying a property is an exciting undertaking, with so many options within reach. Whether you’re looking to:

·      Revamp a kitchen

·      Add a fresh coat of paint to any room
