House moving is the world's
oldest and largest form of recycling!
House moving has been around for over 400 years because it’s
good for both the environment and good for your wallet. All building materials are recycled and therefore landfill space
is not consumed. House moving is also the number one source of low cost housing!
Economics of House
Raising
- Raising your home provides instant home equity.
- Raising your home to extend the height of the basement
or creating a new full basement from a crawl space is the most cost effective way to double the square footage of your home.
- The cost of finishing a basement or main floor is 60% to 70% less than adding on the same amount of square footage.
- For every $1 spent on raising and improving your home you will increase its value by a $1.50.
-
Avoid the costs of selling your home and purchasing a larger home. Imagine skipping the real estate fees, land transfer tax,
legal fees and moving costs; and you can stay in the area you want to be in.
