As a professional of the construction industry, it fills me with joy and optimism to see how the industry has been slowly awakening, boosting our economy and creating new job opportunities. At the same time I have observed several faults in the Residential market that could create a negative effect not consistent with the projection for the coming years.
There is a big trend in remodeling of aesthetic: change in order to increase its value, focused primarily on the selection of flashy materials without knowledge of its composition or origin of manufacture.
Another point is the selection of cheap labor without proper certification and experience or lack of legality of the process in order to reduce the project costs. This has very serious consequences and risks that will depreciate the investment.
Moreover, the owner of the property makes renovations without appropriate professional advice to inform and help them understand new trends and projection of the industry.
Modern construction, interior design and decor are completely changing to adapt to a new era of technology. A focus on sustainability, resilience and energy efficiency will allow us to compete globally with the best construction in the world, with a demanding young market and to thwart the effects of climate change.
PROFESSIONAL TIPS FOR A GREAT INVESTMENT:
The key is to remodel and decorate looking for a return on investment without compromising the beauty and style. Invest your budget in better projects that generate savings through the implementation of efficient technologies and materials that enhance healthy indoor air thus creating spaces comfortable and healthy. This will add value to the property and place it at a competitive level for future buyers.
Interior painting: Paint technology has reached a very high level, being able to recognize their characteristics will bring great benefits. Today there are completely organic paints with no pollutants that cause cancer and other diseases; choosing this type of paints will eliminate toxic levels in the indoor environment. There are also paintings with thermal insulation that will reduce energy consumption, water resistance and fire retardants.
Remodeling kitchens and bathrooms; has been in high demand this year. The smart remodeling will be the one that implement efficient technologies for energy and water conservation. Use cabinets built with recycled materials without toxic emissions and water-mildew repellent. New materials such as bamboo, glass and paper recycled will be of great trend for countertops because they offer excellent features of durability, strength, and zero toxic emissions.
Curtains: It has always been an element of elegance in a house but the best investment will be those that incorporate ecological fabric without chemicals which in turn reduce energy consumption and serve as insulation of sound, creating healthier, comfortable, and more efficient environments.
