Basment are the best return on dollar
Basement finishing is without a doubt the best return on your money for a home improvement project. Where else can you get finished space for around 30$ square foot? With a little creativity you can add a theater, workout room, game area and endless storage in this space.

Make it look like you spent a furtune
I cannot tell you how many time people will show me previous projects they have gotten done at their house. They will say we got this kitchen remodeled for 20k. I think to myself, it looks like you spent 20k. The goal should always be to spend 15k and make it look like you spent 20.
