Renovations of Homes versus New Builds

Webinar Description

This webinar focuses on consideration of the various factors that renovations or remodels may take more time than build a new home. Often renovations can take longer than a new build or perhaps 6 months may be too long and expensive for a new build. Which approach is right? There often isn’t an easy answer to that question. We hope that this webinar can help make that decision a bit easier.
