05/02/2024 Kartika

If you’re looking to upgrade your home, you may be able to save thousands of dollars by taking advantage of the Reduced Inflation Act, which includes tax credits and cash rebates on certain energy-efficient purchases.

When Paul Hope renovated his house, he tried to make eco-friendly choices. That includes switching from a gas stove to an electric stove.

“I’ve always preferred gas cooking, but I know electric and induction cooktops have gotten a lot better over the years and a lot better for the environment,” says Hope.

With funding from Congress, the Reduced Inflation Act means homeowners can take advantage of up to $14,000 in rebates and tax credits to make energy efficiency improvements.

How much you can earn depends on how much you earn, where you live, and what upgrades you make.

Aspiring home owners are finding the housing market to be pretty grim lately. With record-high mortgage rates, expensive insurance, and a limited selection of pricey homes, many are staying put — whether they want to or not.

But the bleach outlook could be a boon for Ikea, a budget furniture seller that appeals to people who need to furnish small spaces, can’t spend much and don’t expect products to last very long.

With “people maybe not being able to get into that dream house right now, whether for affordability or availability … they’re looking for solutions that might not be as permanent,” said Michael Brown, partner in the consulting firm Kearney’s consumer products and retail practice. He added that unlike its competitors, Ikea’s offerings work well in smaller spaces. “I actually think the environment is ripe for them to go and expand at this point in

The last few years have seen major changes in our lifestyles and spending, and our homes are no exception. Angi’s Household Expense Report for 2022 shows how things have changed this year, and what you can expect for 2023.

The single biggest impact on home spending in recent years has, of course, been the pandemic. As homeowners hunker down in their homes for most of 2020, they are thinking less about how home improvements can affect value, and instead how they will change and improve their lifestyles as everyone stays home more.

Now that many pre-pandemic activities and behaviors have returned, how has this affected household expenses? Angie surveyed 6,500 consumers to determine what is most important to them. It turns out that lifestyle needs are still the main driver. Prior to 2020, “return on investment” was the top motivator for home improvement spending in the Angi survey. This year,

If you’re a DIY beginner and you’re not sure where to start, Shane Duffy has a few easy project recommendations. First, he says painting is one of the simplest ways to update your home. “Painting is easy, and anybody can do it,” he told Realtor.com. “The barriers to entry to painting are just getting a paintbrush and a roller and doing it.” Another easy project? Building wooden pallet furniture, like a bed frame or an outdoor bench, which he demonstrated on Fox News. This could easily be done by stacking the pallets and connecting them with screws.

Once you’ve mastered some of these easy projects, you can then move on to harder ones, like feature walls. “When it comes to more skilled crafts, for example, doing a slat wall, like a wood feature wall, you’re going to have to invest in some tools,” he explained. However, he added, “If you
