🏡 Should You Remodel or Buy a New Home in St. Louis?

Many St. Louis homeowners eventually face this question: Is it smarter to remodel or start fresh with a new home? Let’s break it down 👇

🔧 Why Remodeling Makes Sense

Keep your favorite neighborhood and community ties.

Customize spaces — update kitchens, finish basements, or add storage.

Often more affordable than new construction.

Retain the sentimental value of your current home.

🏠 Why Buying New Appeals

Brand-new systems — no worries about old plumbing or roofs.

Built-in energy efficiency and modern design.

Opportunity to change neighborhoods or upgrade lifestyle.

May offer higher resale potential in growing areas.

💰 Cost Insight (St. Louis)

Remodeling: averages $30K–$150K depending on project size.

New Home: typically $350K or more including moving and fees.

💡 Quick Tip

If your house has solid structure and you love your location, remodeling adds comfort and value. But if your current space no longer fits your life — buying new could be your next chapter.

More progress on the window bench! Just needs a little more sanding and some paint and it’ll be ready to go! The bench will sit atop one of our cold air returns, so instead of putting a register cover on this, we thought it would look cleaner (and still provide enough air flow 🤞) to cut those slits in the bottom. #woodworking #diyproject #handyman #homerenovation #stlouishomes #stlouisartist (at Tower Grove South) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYr1vP1lF7L/?utm_medium=tumblr

Finishing up the drywall on this lil pantry at @thejuniatahouse I was less discerning about seams since the kitchen side will be obscured behind a large cabinet and we placed the seams on the inside of the pantry at the locations of the shelves. Besides, we had a ton of scrap we were trying to use up. #drywall #homerenovation #stlouishomes (at Tower Grove South) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIgri1ilisd/?igshid=1buz6qfnt7e9j

Making good progress on the pantry! Framing is nearly finished (just need to add blocking for shelves), and I installed this ultra thin disc light which was perfect for the space! Running the electrical was kind of a tricky project here, w the help of my dad, I deconstructed some of the electrician’s work and figured out how to make this work. #diy #pantry #homerenovation #stlouishomes (at Tower Grove South) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIWEEDeF5bD/?igshid=j4xatqj5mury
