In today’s real estate market more and more people are opting to add on to their existing home rather than buy a bigger home. According to Fixr's basement remodeling costs, homeowners should expect a 78% return on their investment. If you have a basement you have the luxury of finishing a space that already has four walls, hence saving thousands of dollars over a room addition. The average cost per square foot to finish a basement is less than half that to put on an addition. Today’s housing market trends suggests that finished basements are highly sought after and can be a real asset to your home’s long term equity.
That wasted space down under can be ideal for a game room, guest room, home theater, music room, teen room, home office, gym, or a hobby room. The attributes of privacy, quietness, and coolness lend themselves to an endless list of potential room purposes.
