"Greg was good about informing me of what should be done to remedy issues and what I can do myself, if I feel confident in my abilities. Overall, it was a great experience and I would recommend Cornerstone. I wanted to note that I found out about Greg from a family member who was selling their house and the buyer used Greg. I was told by my family member that he hated Greg because he was so thorough and that I should use him to inspect my house when buying. This is a great compliment coming from a seller. I later found out our realtor used Greg when he purchased his house. I also just recommended Greg to another family member and they used Cornerstone, but got the other inspector. I was informed he did an excellent job as well. I have since followed up with Greg to ask about the best route for remedying certain issues and he called me back the same day and talked it over with me. "
This was a big deal purchase. It was great; we use him still. We use him for other properties we have. I was not there when in was done. I think he was probably on time.

In short, yes, a pond can add to your home’s value. However, whether it adds value will depend on the condition and aesthetic of your pond. Having this feature already built into a yard’s home can be appealing to homebuyers who value its aesthetic and would prefer not to build it themselves. But if it is not kept in good condition, it could turn buyers away.
While a finished basement adds value to your home, it is assigned a different value than space on the main floors. An appraiser will assess the square footage of a finished basement at about 50% to 60% of the value of the square footage for the rest of your home. Appraisal value for a finished basement depends on your location’s real estate market and the specifics of the basement and how it was finished.
If installing board and batten fixes an issue with the home, it could increase the value, but it isn’t commonly installed for that purpose. Board and batten is an aesthetic choice and, like most aesthetic choices, will do little to raise your home’s value. That being said, certain design elements can help attract more buyers, even if your home’s price won’t see a noticeable bump.
In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.
Yes, awnings can add value to a home, primarily by boosting its curb appeal and providing more usable outdoor space. While the exact monetary return on investment depends on the awning's size, style, and quality, they offer an excellent appeal factor to potential buyers. For example, an awning with a trendy metal roof can be particularly attractive. Even if the direct increase in resale value is modest, a well-chosen awning enhances the home's functionality and aesthetic.
