Tear Down or Renovate? Questions to Ask Before You Decide
Many owners love their location but not their home. The choice between a whole-home renovation and a tear-down rebuild is one of the biggest decisions they will make.
Questions worth answering first
How sound is the existing structure? How much of the floor plan needs to change? What will current codes require once work begins? How long can you be out of the house? What will the finished property be worth compared with the total investment?
Evaluate both paths with real numbers
The answer is rarely obvious from a walkthrough. We look at the existing conditions, the scope you want and the requirements that apply, then compare the paths on cost, schedule and outcome.
Whichever way you go, a major renovation deserves the same discipline and planning as ground-up construction
