It's been over a month since my last message, and as fall turns to winter we all continue to spend increasingly more time indoors. The functions and spaces within our homes are being stretched, and many of you have reached out, torn between a common question.

To sell or remodel?

On the surface it seems like such a simple question. Nothing could be further from the truth, especially today. The issue gets especially tricky if you love your house but know it is just not working for you. Maybe it worked great when the kids were in school or before tech transformed how we use our homes today.

There’s always the possibility you simply don’t like the house as is but have an inkling that it has potential to satisfy if you go the remodel route. You know what your home is and isn't, but don't know yet what it could be! But how to decide if you should just sell and start fresh with another home altogether or bite the bullet and remodel? The following short tips will help you get off the fence and into a house (maybe yours) that brings out the best in you and those you care about.

I hope you and yours are all safe and healthy, and happy Thanksgiving!
