So much of the advice out there about home improvements is focused on the bottom line, treating your home as a commodity.
And sure, remodeling always has a cost. There are financial factors involved.

If you’re planning on selling your mid-century home soon, leave it alone. Don’t do anything to it.
If you’re planning to stay, you are better off focusing on what will make the house your home.
