"We contracted VKB for a complete master bathroom demolition and redesign. We got 2 estimates and VKB was the most reasonable. My experience with VKB was excellent from initial design with Sean, thru implementation of the new bathroom. VKB is a one stop shop, they design the new bathroom including picking tile, floor, toilet, sinks, hardware, cabinets in the store. They meet with you at home, create a schedule and assign a Project Manager. Jason was our PM and he was fantastic. He kept his team on schedule, kept in constant communication with us, let us know what was happening next for the entire job. They were clean, organized, trustworthy and very skilled. We could not be happier… (and we are not relatives or friends of VKB, we are random homeowners who chose them based on Yelp ratings etc)."

"I Hired John James property after having major issues with my first contractor during my complete renovation of my garden apartment. Not only was he prompt in returning my initial call, but he came by within 24 hours to see what I needed done and start working on an estimate. I could probably have gotten a cheaper contractor but I know for sure, I could NOT have gotten a better contractor. You pay for what you get. From start to finish, he was ALWAYS available to assist me, no matter the time or day, with things that I did not understand about the process and to make sure we stayed on schedule. ALL of his workers were trustworthy, prompt and efficient. One of his contractors even agreed to assist me after the job was complete with some handyman issues. I am EXTREMELY happy with the final outcome and would HIGHLY recommend him and his company. Thank you John James properties for making this process for me, stress and worry free!!"

"I will begin from the end-HIRE THEM! We have been using EnviroBuild’s services for the last 10 years, since purchasing our house. They serviced us in 4 different projects, in which the last one was after a tree fell on our house. They came and start assisting us even prior to the insurance providing approval by covering the roof and getting someone to clear the large tree debris. They negotiated with the insurance and made sure that we will receive ALL we need to be done to include permits and inspections. Once the work started it was quick, efficient, professional and with absolutely amazing results. We will definitely recommend them to anyone who is interested in a work to be done in their home."

"I looked to Home Advisor to find a contractor to replace our deck and give us ideas for our screened porch that really needed an uplift. I no sooner put in my contact information when I got a call from Tommy Greist, the owner of Bent Palm Design & Build. He set up a date and time to meet with my husband and I and and gave us ideas we hadn't thought about for our deck and porch project. His website was also very helpful to see other projects he had completed. His price was right so we signed the contract. Tommy's crew started the work a month later and they finished in under 2 weeks. We are very happy with the finished project and would highly recommend Bent Palm Design & Build to anyone looking for a dependable contractor to do any renovation project."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to negotiate with a homebuilder is to forgo price reductions. Instead, negotiate over upgrades and incentives, as many builders are more willing to go down that road than to decrease their own fee. Even if they were willing to take a cut, a reputable homebuilder often knows their worth, so a willingness to negotiate could be a red flag. Beyond that, builders are typically willing to negotiate closing costs instead of offering a discount on the base price.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.
