Do shipping container homes hold value?

• <div><p>Yes, shipping container homes have a very high resale value if they’ve been well maintained over the years. You can resell this home similar to how you’d resell any home. The value depends on the market and the condition. As a bonus, you can transport many container homes depending on the design, which makes them easier to sell if the local market is challenging. </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: Is the appraisal value the same as market value?

• <div><p>No, the appraisal value comes from an appraiser and is a professional opinion of value based on property location and condition, while the market value is determined solely by what buyers are willing to pay for your home. Lenders normally use appraised values to ensure they&rsquo;re staying within target loan-to-value (LTV) ratios&mdash;the market value is simply what the home sells for. Appraised value can sit above or below market value.</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: Is it more affordable to build or buy a house?

• <div><p>It is almost always more affordable to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/building-vs-buying-house.htm">buy an existing home than to build one from scratch</a>. First of all, new construction mortgage interest rates are often higher than traditional loans. Also, when building a home, you're covering the cost of brand-new finishes, appliances, electrics, plumbing, utility hookups, and labor. Between the cost of labor and permits, building a home will often cost more in the long run. </p></div>

I hired Guilded Touch to construct an attached deck off my front door. Right from the onset, Joel was fantastic to work with. He has a real eye for detail and didn’t look to cut any corners. Even though I had a strong vision of how I wanted the deck to look, he worked with me to improve some...

They grossly underestimated the price. They charged an extra $1,000.00 above the estimate. We asked for our stuff to be delivered on the 7th and they did not arrive until the 12th. They did not arrive on time which was a real inconvenience because we were in an empty house. After sending a...
