3 Tips for a Stress-free Kitchen Remodel

• Spend 6 months planning your remodel, keeping in mind traffic patterns, safety and outdoor access.
• If you don’t plan to stay in the home for more than 5 years, consider a minor remodel instead.
• Budget for unexpected costs. While you can’t plan for the unexpected, you should budget for it. Add 10 to 20 percent to the budget as a cushion.
