3 Reasons to Finish Your Basement

3 Reasons to Finish Your Basement - Image 1

It’s easy

Unlike building an addition, your basement is already there, just waiting to be finished. It won’t consume any of your precious outdoor space by increasing your home’s footprint, and won’t require costly and complicated excavation and construction. Finishing your basement doesn’t require the permits that new construction does, which means there’s little lead time necessary between deciding to do it and getting started.

It adds space

If your family is growing, or just growing up, you might simply be running out of space upstairs. Finishing your basement allows you to add anything from an open concept general rec room to multiple defined rooms for use as bedrooms, office space, or anything else that your family needs. This also opens up space upstairs so your house can work better for your life.

It adds value

If you decide to sell, the extra square footage and draw of a finished basement will pull in more buyers and higher offers. Even adding just finished square footage automatically raises the value of your home, but adding bedrooms and bathrooms specifically raises both monetary and intrinsic value as your house pops up in new filtered searches in real estate apps and attracts a new group of buyers.

You own your entire home, so you should be able to use your entire home - including the basement.
