There is conflicting data on how much of your investment in your outdoor kitchen you can expect back if you sell your home. One study states that kitchens in warmer climates with quality appliances can see returns of 100% - 200%. Another study cites only a 55% return and says that your ROI depends on whether the new home buyer values an outdoor living area. This second study considers an outdoor kitchen to be a perk and not one of the core amenities most homebuyers are seeking. Ask your design team what kind of ROI local homeowners usually see on an outdoor kitchen.
