Finishing the basement (I have done all 5 and my recent appraisal gave me very little for the basement)

Based on Realtor.com in conjunction with remodeling.hw.net the correct answer is adding a bathroom. Congrats, Mike - your bagel card is forthcoming!

The figures are based on added re-sale value in our region compared to the job cost.

Greg. Is this job cost, as in what you would pay a contractor to add it, or the raw costs of adding a bathroom yourself?

Greg Anderson said...

Tag,

This is cost you'd pay a contractor. There are plenty of projects that will yield more value than the cost if you do it yourself - assuming you do a professional job. If the job is not done well (as so many homeowner-done jobs are) it can actually decrease the value of the home.
