Ignorant Question on Future Appraisal/Valuation of House

[Adam Creighton]

Hey Everyone,

I recently purchased my first house in the South Shore area and am going to be doing a lot of the work myself. My first project is a small bathroom remodel, followed by another smaller bathroom remodel, and eventually kitchen floors and cabinets, etc. My question is; should I save all receipts of purchases for the house (vanity, toilet, dishwasher, flooring , materials for adding value to the house, etc) or is that overkill? I know when I get the house re-appraised down the road they obviously aren't going to look through every cent I've put into the property; but wanted a way to stay organized so I can at least track what I've put into it.

What do they look for when appraising/valuing a house?

Thanks in advance!
