A 7 - 15-year LVP lifespan is not sufficient if you're building a home and financing upgraded LVP. It's best to go with engineered hardwood floors with a 3mm or thicker veneer for resale value. BTW, in the Chicago area, some builders are putting LVP in million dollar plus homes.

Looking for more info on how home sale affects tax. How much tax increase to expect when buying a house that hasn't been sold in 30 years.

We have 2 efficiency condo units in Ocean City, NJ Interested in renting to contracted worker or temporary relocation needs in the off season.

Irritating voice.

Some people (mentally) will pay for extra square footage so I don't see why it wouldn't be GOOD investment in some cases?

Hi Sarah! This is Joyce! Nice to meet you

4:00 vinyl good for 500K or under

Engineered hardwood is by far one of the worst. It's like worse of both solid hardwood and vinyl, It is just a gimmick. Very prone ti water damage.

Excellent my friend. Thank you for sharing this vital information. Wishing you continued success...😊

Had poor results on engineered hardwood. The top finish wore off leaving a light colored wood that doesn’t take stain. New home 3/4 white oak in main floor. LVP basement

Awesome info, thanks so much

LVP, 🤮looks, feels and sounds like the POS it is. Will come and go like all fads.

Where do I go to apply for this exemption?

Great tips and insides, thank you Sarah!

Wow, you are on point!! I am going to look at a development this weekend and I plan on having these ready to ask. Well done!

Your prices are low, even for just materials, and aren't even taking into consideration the labor.

yes home owner associations are dictators; I would not buy a house if a home owners association is involved; no one tells me what colour to paint my house.

Engineered hardwood lasted about 1 year in our new house. Total crap. We were sold on it as being “hardwood”, but the real hardwood in our previous house is 80 years old and still great. There is NO comparison! Engineered hardwood sellers should be sued out of the market for false advertising.

Do all builders offer a 10 year structural warranty? Are the builders supposed to?

Good information, thanks for sharing.

All good information!! Thanks for sharing.

I am about to have my first home built. Thank you so very much for these great questions. Going to ask them tomorrow.

Not happening they are packing us in like rats and charging a premium, dont accept small properties

We practically live in our sunroom, year round. And if you find a company that will work with you and listen to what you want, you don't have to have glass walls and a glass roof unless that's how you want it to be. When our old back porch began to fall apart -- literally; my foot went through the floor in two different placed -- all I really hoped for was a new porch. But then my husband took over the planning, and decided a sunroom was a better investment. We did not have access to this same company, but there was a company semi-locally that built sunrooms of all shapes and styles. I was pretty specific about what I wanted: it had to be at least 20 x 12, it had to be covered with wood siding that could be painted to match the house, and it had to have a real shingled roof. I figured if it were going to be an actual room, it needed to look as if it belonged there. It had to have French doors, not sliders, and it had to be usable all year, even in our often brutally cold upper Midwestern winters. I had to overrule both my husband and the contractor several times, then start again with the carpenter who did the actual construction. None of them seemed to get the point -- they're guys, okay? -- but they went along with me. When the project was finished, they all stood around and congratulated themselves on how great it looked.🙄🙄 We insulated the floor, and the thick solid foam walls, themselves, act as insulation. We had wood siding and real shingles, and the steps up to the door evolved at my insistence into a stoop with railings and a shingled roof of its own, with a peaked front elevation, round white columns, and white railings on the steps and around the stoop. The back of our house now looks so good, I want the same style of covered stoop on the front. The one thing we didn't do that I wish we had done was upgrade to double-pane windows. We went with single pane, and have been trying to figure out ever since how to put storm panels over the windows. We've been using interior storms made from the thickest clear vinyl we could find locally. We used thick vinyl roll flooring with a thin insulating backing, and had an extra piece to lay on the traffic path across the room. I then put an 8x11 area rug in each end of the room. Heating and air conditioning was another issue, as we could not just tap into the existing system in the house. The company wanted to install a single 48" PTAC in one end of the room. I knew it would only lead to uneven heating and cooling, and would block furniture placement. I finally convinced them (and my husband) to install two 26" PTACs, one in each end, with one in the front corner and one in the back corner. They can be covered by curtains when not in use, take up much less wall space, and heat and cool far more evenly than a single larger unit. We also have a fireplace with an electric "fire" that keeps the room toasty most days. The casual observer doesn't know it's a sunroom; they think we just built on a family room. We don't use porch furniture in the sunroom. We have it furnished very much like any other room, with upholstered chairs and loveseat, wooden tables and side chairs, and a wide-screen TV.

I am retired and couldn't care less about my home's resale value, so off I go. I'm on 3 acres of gorgeous Minnesota countryside, so this will be great. A 16 x 16 3 season addition.

I was thinking of adding a sunroom to my existing home just to extend the house a bit but now based on your review I guess it’s not worth it if appraisal is only $4k

I googled UK down sizing n got this. Anyone with a brain knows that homes of any type in the USA are at least 3 times the size of British homes. We have a massive housing crisis because we are having to house all the immigrants that have flooded into Europe n the U.K. due to USA funded wars in the middle East n Ukraine. Could you Americans possibly take on some of our refugees - the USA is 40 times the size of the U.K. yet only has 5 times our population. A quick bit of arithmetic would show who’s people pay the price. We are staring Sharia law in the face - London (our capital city) is now only 36% white British. The indigenous people of the U.K. and Europe are being flooded and destroyed by the massive Muslim influx caused by the USA’s foreign policy. All our housing is being given to Muslim immigrants. Bye-bye Britain, hello Caliphate. Thanks America, enjoy your massive homes!

Sunrooms

👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you

Team...wow, what a great explanation of how a team operates, parts assigned by team leader means only responsible for that part. Wow. Who knew? So what would be the benefit to buyer/seller in using a team rather than independent?

Great insight. Thanks Sarah!

Great videos!!! The number one spot for online marketing Promo*SM!!!

Thank you

Good narrative but could include video or picture to further trigger audience interest

I anticipate building a new home the future. Time is on my side. It's been decided we want to hire a PM or CM. I know we can offer an hourly rate. However, if we hire the PM/CM on a entire project basis. I heard standard procedure is to pay PM/CM a percentage on the materials?

Very insightful, thank you!

This breakdown is really helpful. Thank you!

Very nice example and breakdown of the calculations.

Just to add to this video do you think finishing a basement is worth it? Or maybe this could be another video and also good basement finishing companies in Michigan thanks!

Thanks for posting this video. Glad to hear the return on value numbers.

What about “ The Hamlet.”

Thanks for this presentation. Right on time for me.

Rule # 1 dont ever do it without hiring a realtor first. lol

Starting to direct my focus on relocation. This was so helpful. THANKS

Definitely ready for the next video about the new construction sites in Canton

I met her a few days back. She seems quite unbiased than any other I was able to talk to.

Can you maybe speak on the type of HOA rules Canton new builds have like if any allow fenced yards or maybe some Canton subdivision that don’t have HOA.

Hello me and my wife are thinking about building in Canton and we came across The Medows by Evergreen Homes and was wondering do you have any dealings with them or can do a video about one of there neighborhood’s, thanks!
