do-it-yourself remodel can be a budget-friendly way to freshen up your home. For some projects, it may take just a few YouTube videos to show you how to modernize your space. But not every project is right for amateur renovators. Your skill level, budget and how important the project is to your home’s value ROGELIO V.

It’s best to let experts handle systems that make your house function, like the electrical, plumbing and HVAC system, Egner says. This work often involves permits and background knowledge, and the cost of a misstep can be high. “A simple mistake in an installation of a toilet or a faucet could lead to thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars worth of damage,” he says. Lovery is willing to knock down walls in her home, but she makes room in her budget to outsource some work, saving potential headaches down the road. Managing home improvement costs If you’re still undecided, have a contractor write up an estimate and compare it with your DIY budget, Egner says. You can search for professionals on the NARI website. He also recommends adding about 10% to 20% to your budget for unexpected expenses, which are inevitable with DIY and professional projects. Cash is the interest-free way to pay for home improvement projects, but if you don’t have enough available, shop around to find the best financing. Home equity loans and lines of credit offer low interest rates and long repayment terms, which keep monthly payments low. Personal loans have higher rates and shorter repayment terms, meaning your monthly payments are higher.

ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Average longterm U.S. mortgage rates were flat for a third straight week after rising about a half percent early in the year. The average rate on the 30-year loan held at 3.55% from last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported Thursday. It stood at 2.73% a year ago. The average rate on 15-year, fixed-rate mortgages, popular among those refinancing their homes, fell to 2.77% from 2.80% last week. One year ago, the rate was 2.21%. Though they remain historically low, home loan rates have been rising to levels not seen since early 2020, when the coronavirus pandemic was breaking in the U.S. Last week, the Fed signaled that it would begin a series of interest rate hikes in March, reversing pandemic-era policies that have fueled hiring and growth but also adding to inflation levels not seen in some 40 years. Earlier this month, the government reported that inflation spiked to 7% in December from a year earlier, the sharpest increase in four decades. In addition, the Labor Department reported that prices at the wholesale level surged by a record 9.7% last month from December 2020. The Fed’s upcoming rate hike — or hikes — will make it more expensive to borrow for a home, car or business. Also Thursday, the government reported that applications for unemployment benefits fell for the second week in a row after three straight weeks of increases that economists blamed on the surging omicron variant of COVID-19. The Commerce Department reported last week that the nation’s gross domestic product expanded 5.7% in 2021, the strongest calendar-year growth since a 7.2% surge in 1984.
