Makeover magic
Owning a home means stability, security, comfort, refuge, a place to make memories and a huge financial asset. Members across the country are upgrading their homes—inside and out—through Costco with quality furniture, hardware, appliances, flooring and installation services. Here's a look at what some members have accomplished.

MEMBERS: JOHANNY + ISSA RABADI / LOCATION: PARSIPPANY, NEW JERSEY / PROJECT: COMPLETE REBUILD
Sometimes the way forward in home remodeling is to start over. In October 2017, after living in their 1,400-square-foot lake community home for almost 13 years, Johanny and Issa Rabadi had it demolished. "We love the town and our lake community, but we knew that eventually we were going to need more space to raise our two children," Johanny says. They considered selling, but they couldn't find another home they were comfortable with. "So we decided to start planning for a rebuild instead," she adds.
