Could missing renovation records cost you money when you sell your home? 📋
Home improvements can do more than increase your property's value. They may also increase your home's tax basis, potentially reducing taxable gain when it comes time to sell.

Key records to keep include:
→ Major renovation invoices
→ Contractor receipts and proof of payment
→ Permits and project documentation
→ Closing and selling costs

Small recordkeeping habits today can make a meaningful difference in the future.
