Renovating often means restoring something to a good state of repair, like fixing up an old kitchen with new paint and hardware. Remodeling typically involves changing the structure or layout of a space, such as knocking down a wall to create an open-concept living area in your Milwaukee home.

This is a big question and depends on the housing market in Milwaukee and the condition of the homes you're considering.

Similar to the remodeling rule, the 30% rule for renovations suggests that if your renovation costs climb to 30% or more of your home's value, you should carefully consider the return on investment.
