When you get an inheritance, it might actually come as a surprise since the one transferring the wealth doesn’t always inform the intended recipient. But the reality is that many people will be left an inheritance at some point, which will mean that they’ll have to decide what to do with it. Saving, reducing debt, and investing are a few options. Another option – one that might be to your liking – is to invest in a home improvement project like Portland, OR replacement windows.
Here are a few home improvement projects you might want to pursue with your new-found wealth.
Replacement Windows
Let’s face it. Replacing windows, especially a lot of them at one time, can be costly. It’s worth it, of course, since the benefits include greater curb appeal for your home, reduced heating and cooling bills at the end of the month, and a more comfortable interior temperature for you and yours. But while replacement windows are worth it, you might feel tempted to put such a project on the backburner. But if you find yourself with a lump sum of money, you might want to go ahead with a replacement windows project. Whether you do a few windows at a time or all of them at once, you will be able to tap your financial windfall to fund the project.
Patio Deck
If you have a home but don’t have a back deck or patio, you don’t know what you’re missing. A patio will not only increase the value of your home, but also enable you to appreciate your home more. Imagine sitting out on the back deck with family while enjoying dinner outdoors. Imagine hosting a dinner party where neighbors and some friends from work come by to share a meal. If you previously hadn’t saved any money towards buying a deck, an inheritance might help out.
Roof
A roof will set you back thousands of dollars, which is why some people put off such a project until they really can’t hold off any longer. With your new-found wealth, however, you can invest in getting this critical home renovation completed. It will give your residence a fresh new look. increase curb appeal, and prevent the elements from getting inside your home.
While you obviously shouldn’t sit around and wait for an inheritance that may never come, it is good to know that there are options should you see your bank account balance soar.
