Homeowners easily influenced by property renovation shows: Study

Posted on By Kartika
House Renovation

CHICAGO (NewsNation) — Home makeover shows might influence owners to make choices that prioritize future buyers instead of what makes them happy in the present, a new study first reported in the Washington Post found.

Dr. Annetta Grant, an assistant professor of markets, innovation and design at Bucknell University, took a closer look at this with Jay Handelman, an associate professor of marketing at the Smith School of Business.

Grant’s research looked into how this type of media is making homeowners worried about being judged or scrutinized and how some go the neutral route while renovating and decorating instead of making bolder choices that express who they are.

After talking to 17 homeowners doing renovations, Grant found most of them wanted to make smart choices so their homes could be worth more down the line.

Revealing Tehran’s Corruption: Khamenei’s House Renovation at the Expense of Iranians

khamenei meeting foreign affairs ministry (1)

While Iranians can hardly make ends meet, a leaked letter shows how the ruling theocracy uses the national wealth to renovate and expand the house of its Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, in Mashhad.

The documents, obtained by the dissident group “Ghiyam ta Sarnegouni” during its infiltration of the regime’s presidential servers and sites, also indicate how vast amounts of money are squandered on the regime’s malign activities under the banner of supporting “knowledge-based companies.”

While the regime propagates a facade of modesty and austereness, the reality tells a different story. Document N. 1 provides damning evidence of the Islamic Revolution Cultural Research Institute shamelessly demanding exorbitant funds for the lavish renovation of Khamenei’s opulent residence in Mashhad. This blatant display of excess and indulgence is an affront to the Iranian people, who suffer under the regime’s repressive rule and dire economic conditions.

Adding insult to injury, Document N. 2 reveals

TEXARKANA, Texas — The Ace of Clubs House does not have any plans to open this summer, but the historical museum’s face lift continues, and the Museum of Regional History is open to tour.

“This is a massive project,” said Emily Tarr, executive director for the Texarkana Museum Systems, about the renovation happening at the Ace of Clubs House.

Last week, the removal of the plastic sheets surrounding the cupola took place and the installation of windows and frames in the house began. The museum is in the process of doing an entire interior and exterior renovation.

“The exterior is going to happen first,” Tarr said. “In the next couple of weeks, you’ll see scaffolding going up on the entire house.”

Tarr said next the plan is to start painting and patching the plaster.

“It has gone through basically 10-plus years of total neglect,” she said.

It’s no secret that home renovations involve a lot of time — and a lot of money. Whether you’re dreaming of a new kitchen or want to remodel your bathroom, experts agree you will need to conduct thorough research on the extent of the project and the cost, as it will probably take a good chunk of money out of your savings.

Indeed, homeowners are spending a lot on home maintenance. A new GOBankingRates survey found that almost 20% of respondents spent more than $7,000 last year on home renovations, with 12% spending $7,001 to $10,000 and 8% spending more than $10,000.

“That’s not the answer most people want to hear, but you have to really do a comprehensive and realistic research, including not just the cost to do the work and the materials but also any permits, inspections and other administrative costs that can get very pricey, ”
