How-To Series
Buy New or Remodel
For various reasons, people sell their homes and move. But, there are times when your family comes to realize an upgrade of your residence is needed, perhaps a well planned remodel.
You sit down and make a construction cost estimate for a new addition or larger kitchen or bath. Then you are faced with another option which is to upgrade to a new home.
This is especially true in situations where your space needs will not be served well by a simple addition or remodel construction. Or, maybe there just is not enough land or construction configuration available for remodel or addition. An additional large bedroom, a second floor, even a swimming pool may not be possible.
Even if it was, another consideration is the construction costs and the effort and inconvenience of the construction activity where contractors and workmen will be moving in and out the home perhaps for as long as 6 months.
Buying a new home and moving out is not easy but it may well be the more favorable option. Cost estimates and remodel value analysis indicate certain additional home components can be had for pennies on the dollar.
For example, an additional bedroom for 67 percent of construction costs, kitchen at 82 percent, patio at 65 percent and a new swimming pool at a handsome 55 percent of new construction costs.
Now, that’s the kind of upgrade you should not ignore.
