Replace Used Kitchen Cabinets in January for Best Deal, Reports HomeOpinion.com

A recent article on HomeOpinion.com suggests that January 2007 may offer even more kitchen remodeling savings than usual for homeowners looking to replace their used kitchen cabinets. HomeOpinion.com, a community driven home improvement resource, reveals that this year's cooling market for new residential construction has freed up building companies and construction workers, creating more competition for the few remodeling jobs available in the first month of the year. The article "January Is the Time to Buy Kitchen Cabinets" proposes that the result could be better prices for the 75 percent of homeowners who use professional help for their home improvement projects.

(PRWeb) January 9, 2007 -- A new HomeOpinion.com feature article indicates that January 2007 may be the best time for kitchen remodeling and used kitchen cabinet replacement for the home improvement season. HomeOpinion.com (http://www.HomeOpinion.com/kitchen), a community driven home improvement resource, reveals that this year's slowing housing market may create more competition amongst contractors for the few remodeling jobs available in January. The article "January Is the Time to Buy Kitchen Cabinets" suggests that the effect could be better prices for the 75 percent of homeowners who use contractors for their home renovations.

According to a RealtyTimes.com column by Broderick Perkins, this time of year is perfect for smaller home remodeling projects like replacing used kitchen cabinets. "If weather conditions permit, or if it's an inside job, don't wait for spring to improve your home. It's a good time to remodel, especially if the work is lumber intensive," Perkins recommends.

By waiting until spring or summer, the article suggests that homeowners may face:

•    Higher prices

•    Longer project timelines

•    Fewer options for cabinetry

According to the article, the opportunity to save by ordering kitchen cabinets and remodeling during winter won't last. The softening secondary real estate market may also drive demand for renovation, and some experts predict a corresponding remodeling boom in the near future as sellers try to stand out in an increasingly competitive housing market.
