Replace all broken screens, cracked windowpanes, faulty light fixtures, loose basement stair steps, and anything else not in good working condition. All of them increase the pleasure you take in your home, but some of them increase the resale value more than others. All these figures are based on installation costs charged by professional, licensed contractors. However, they risk creating numerous safety hazards, to say nothing of having costly code violations when a potential buyer orders the standard home inspection. Correcting or redoing work always costs more than doing it right the first time.
Professional contractors guarantee their work and services for safety and conformity to code.
Regardless of the amount, additions increase resale value. Additions should be undertaken on their merits. All properties are subject to prior sale, change or withdrawal. All rights reserved.
