What is the JOY Factor? Unveiling the Essence of Home Happiness
The JOY Factor measures the joy and fulfillment people feel after finishing a remodeling project. This includes the visual appeal, practicality, and overall improvement of living quality in the renovated space.
Americans invest a staggering $400 billion per year in home renovations in pursuit of joy, Richardson points out. Only 35% of homeowners express a preference for moving to a new home rather than tackling the overwhelming task of remodeling.
