Tear Down and Rebuild!
Our newest emerging business at AllState Homes Inc is the Concept of tearing down aging homes and then replacing them with brand new site built concrete and steel homes.
Why does this make sense? It makes sense for the following reasons:
With the unprecedented appreciation of Tampa Bay area real estate many people have significant equity in their property. This particularly holds true in areas of older housing stock like south Tampa or Seminole heights. So if you live in a great neighborhood and do not want to move but need more space you can use the equity in your land to build a new home with little or no down payment. Financing a project like a tear down and rebuild is easy financially. Banks are often more willing to lend money on a brand new home vs. a renovation of an old home.
Secondly, with some of the most stringent hurricane codes in the country for new homes many people tear down their old home for safety reasons. This can be especially true for people living in mobile homes. Many people feel much safer in a new block home built to the new wind codes and are relieved they do not have a mandatory evacuation when a hurricane approaches.
Another interesting part about tearing down is demolition expenses are much lower than one would think. Many people believe demolition can be expensive but in reality the average demolition can be as little as $3,500.0 dollars and can be accomplished in a matter of hours or days.
There are many reasons people are tearing down their old homes and building new especially when you consider energy efficiency. Energy efficiency is a major consideration in the building of a new home, especially when green building techniques are incorporated into the new home design. Building new can enable you to incorporate green building techniques that help our environment.
The reasons to tear down and replace your old home are endless. This article gives a general idea why it has become such a prevalent building practice. For more information please call AllState Homes inc. at 813-935-2111
