Q: Do foundation cracks affect your appraisal?

• <div><p>Foundation cracks won&rsquo;t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren&rsquo;t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.</p></div>

Q: Will a new addition increase my home's value?

• <div><p>The short answer is yes. Room additions almost always increase a home's value. But just how much they increase it varies by the materials you choose, the type of room you build, and other factors. For instance, adding a sunroom will yield you a 49% return on your investment, while adding a primary suite results in a 63% return on your investment.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a mobile and a trailer home?

• <div><p>The difference between a mobile home and a trailer home is primarily between construction standards and usage. Mobile homes built after 1976 meet HUD safety regulations, offering more durability and livability. Trailer homes, an older term, often refer to smaller, lightweight units primarily designed for temporary travel or camping.</p></div>

Q: Is renovating a historic home worth it?

• <div><p>For homeowners who love the charm and character of historic homes, renovating is well worth the invested cost. Keep in mind, though, that historic homes often need more extensive work than you might think at first, so be sure you know exactly what needs to be done so you can decide for yourself if the time, money, and effort are worth it for you.</p></div>

Q: Do fireplaces increase your home’s value?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-fireplaces-make-your-home-value-hot.htm">Fireplaces increase your home&rsquo;s value</a> by as much as 12%. If you're looking to increase your home's value, consider installing an electric fireplace insert or a custom electric fireplace. You can take freestanding or wall-mounted fireplaces with you when you leave, so they will have less of an impact on the value of the home.</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.
