Should I Take On a Home Remodel Right Now?
We get it — the idea of remodeling a home right now can feel daunting. With the current political climate, rising costs due to tariffs, and general economic uncertainty, it’s completely normal to feel hesitant. Making a significant investment in your home is a big decision, especially when the cost of materials and labor seems to keep climbing.
Working with a company like GreatHouse Design + Build might be one of the most strategic ways to approach a remodel in these uncertain times. Here’s why:
