questions to get started:® Size of project: How much do you
want to spend, and will you need accessto funds throughout your project or onelump sum? You may not know yourtotal budget but it’s important to have agood idea of what your project mightcost. DIY vs. contractor: Are you plan-ning to do the work yourself or hire acontractor? If you are using a contractor,references and your own research canhelp you make an informed choice.Repayment plan: Will you need long-term financing or is short-term financ-ing sufficient? If you plan to borrowfunds, consider the monthly paymentthat would fit your budget. These aresome common financing options toexplore:
®Home Equity Line of Credit(HELOC) — A HELOC can provideongoing access to funds using the equi-ty in your home, which typically resultsin lower interest rates than unsecuredcredit. This type of credit may also pro-vide you potential tax benefits. Consultyour tax advisor regarding thedeductibility of interest. Wells Fargo hasa combination of industry-leading fea-
tures to help you borrow responsibly —principal and interest payments thatrebuild your equity, annual and lifetimerate caps, and the ability to lock andunlock your rate with a fixed rateadvance.
®Mortgages with built-in renova-tion financing — These loans helphomeowners complete renovationswith a loan amount that is based on anappraiser’s estimate of what the proper-ty value will be with completedimprovements. This is also an option foraspiring homeowners who purchaseproperties that need repair. Whether ahome purchase or a refinance, thisoption finances the renovations andmortgage in one loan. Wells Fargo is thenation’s leading originator of renovationfinancing, with a dedicated team ofhome mortgage consultants specializingin renovation lending.
®Cash-out refinance mortgages — Acash-out refinance replaces your currentmortgage with a new and larger mort-gage that pays off your current balanceand allows you to use the equity in yourhome to provide additional funds forother purposes.
®Credit card — Credit cards can beused for large or small purchases andmay earn rewards, which can add up tosignificant benefits when you’re making
big home improvement purchases.However, credit cards often have higherinterest rates than other loan or creditoptions, which should be taken intoconsideration.
® Personal loans and lines of credit— These personal credit options typi-cally offer quick credit decisions andaccess to funds in a day. Lines of creditprovide ongoing access to funds.
® Savings — If you have a do-it-yourself project or a small renovation,accessing your savings might be anoption. By paying cash, there is fasteraccess to funds and nothing to repay.
Your bank may not be the bestsource for what color to paint your roomor which walls to move, but it can helpyou identify your financial options.Each option has its associated benefitsand considerations, and your bank canprovide valuable information to helpyou make informed decisions aboutwhich options are right for you. Moreinformation and tips on home improve-ment financing are available online inthe Wells Fargo Home ImprovementLending Center, including a financingoption comparison tool.

(BPT) — Perhaps your home is in pretty good shape —newish roof, well-maintained furnace and air-conditioning,and fresh paint throughout. Or maybe you’ve bought a brand-new house that’s move-in ready. Even though you don’t real-ly need to do a thing to the home, you may still have the urgeto update. But what can you do when everything is alreadyjust about perfect?
Engaging in some out-of-the-ordinary upgrades canenhance a home’s livability, your enjoyment of it and — insome cases — its resale value down the road. Before you set-tle on an upgrade, ask yourself these key questions:
®Will it improve the home’s livability?®Will it improve the healthfulness or security of the home
environment?® Is it a special feature that appeals to your lifestyle?®How difficult/easy will it be to maintain?®Does it have hidden dollar value?Here are some out-of-the-ordinary improvements that can
increase enjoyment of a home while adding value:
SkylightsSkylights are a surprisingly affordable upgrade and it’s
easy to see the lifestyle benefits they bring, including theirability to make both small and large areas seem even larger.
Skylights differentiate a home’s appearance while signifi-cantly increasing the amount of natural light that enters aroom — a huge bonus in spaces where wall windows aren’tpractical or desirable, such as master closets or baths whereprivacy is paramount. Energy Star-qualified, solar-powered,fresh-air skylights, like those from Velux America, also pro-vide passive ventilation that improves indoor air quality.
Fresh-air skylights operate with a programmable touch padremote control that also manages energy efficiency boostingaccessories like blinds. Available in designer colors and pat-terns, solar powered skylight blinds further allow homeown-ers to control the amount of light and warmth that enters orleaves the room through the skylight. Solar powered skylightsand blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30percent federal tax credit. To learn more visit www.whysky-lights.com.
Swimming poolThe value of a swimming pool is subjective, so the most
important questions to answer are whether a pool will fit yourlifestyle and if you’ll be up to maintaining it. Pools can be agreat way to relax or get in some exercise, bond with the kidsor enjoy play time with friends. But you’ll have to do somework for that fun, including regularly cleaning the pool,adding chemicals as needed and keeping the pump, lights,heater and other systems in good condition. You must also beaware of safety and take appropriate measures to protect chil-dren and pets when they’re near the pool.
SunroomA sunroom won’t improve your home’s energy efficiency
the way a skylight can, but if the home has a great view oryou relish communing with nature, a sunroom can helpboost your mood. While some expert do-it-yourselfers maybe able to tackle a sunroom addition on their own, mosthomeowners will want to work with a professional contrac-tor to ensure the structure is sound, well-insulated, efficientand built to code.
Out-of-the-ordinary upgrades can enhance livability and value
