Q: Will a tennis court affect my property taxes?

• <div><p>In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits&mdash;like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court&mdash;then your property taxes will be affected. </p></div>

Q: Does a fireplace add value to a home?

• <div><p>When built right, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-fireplaces-make-your-home-value-hot.htm">fireplaces increase the value of your home</a>. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing; home buyers will usually respond to the charm fireplaces can add. The only scenarios that could lead to a fireplace depreciating a property are the following: if it&rsquo;s in need of constant or immediate repair, is unusable, or isn&rsquo;t up to code. </p></div>

Q: Do wood floors improve home value?

• <div><p>Yes, wood floors are among the most desirable flooring options, and most homebuyers are willing to pay more for homes with high-quality wood floors installed. Wood floors are relatively easy to repair, maintain, and clean, and buyers may pay a premium for the convenience and natural beauty of wood floors, especially if they&rsquo;re new or in good condition. You can reasonably expect a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/remodeling-projects-highest-roi.htm">return on investment </a>of around <b>75%</b> or more when you upgrade to wood floors, depending on the quality and type of wood.</p></div>

Q: Does a pergola add value to property?

• <div><p>Pergolas may have a 50% to 80% return on investment, whether they&rsquo;re standard, manual, motorized, or smart pergolas. Your pergola will add more value when you choose a structure made from durable, long-lasting materials and when the pergola is properly installed by a professional. Extra features like a motorized roof, smart louvers, and heaters or misters may give you a better ROI.</p></div>

Q: How does a new deck or porch affect home value?

• <div><p>Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.</p></div>

Work was good. Some misscommunication over money. My only real issue is the mess in my yard. For the amount of money we paid it could have been graded better and some cheap seed could have been thrown down.

It went well. I will say that I misunderstood the services in the Groupon a bit. I thought it was to do as many returns and vents when it was just a few. So I had extra cost there. Also it didn't involve the real deep cleaning of the system as explained, as part of the process,. so I ended up...

I used an additional two hours. It went mostly well. Overall it went well, but some of the handling of the furniture was not quite as professional. It seems like there was a trainee and when someone was not watching him he would grab it quickly and a handle would come off and he would pop it...
