ConstructionDeal.com Update

Found a great blog post by Jamie Goldberg on her Gold Notes site. She's a top design consultant down in Tampa, Florida.

Jamie talks about her top ten reasons to take on a remodeling project during these tough economic times.

I agree with all them and found two particularly interesting:

"3. Many of the weaker players are being weeded out by the economy before you ever meet them. The remaining pros are better project managers with stronger referrals. This will reduce your chances of running into the kind of con artist that's drawn to a boom and moves on during a bust."

And:

"10. If you're spending more time in the house these days, as many folks are, improving your home will provide some anti-recessionary joy. And who couldn't use that taste of sunshine these days?"

I couldn't agree more. So, if you've got the job security and access to finance a home renovation project... now is definitely the time. Upgrading any part of your home will increase your equity and value as well as improving your life.

Check out her blog for even more useful information!

Just to pat our own backs, I wanted to post this comment from one of the homeowners who recently used our site, ConstructionDeal.com, to find a contractor:

"I just wanted to tell you how impressed I am with the number of contractors your Website brought in to bid my job! I'm certain that one or another will work out just fine. The process was a lot more convenient than my usual tactic of calling everyone in the Yellow Pages. I'll use you again next opportunity-- and will share your URL with everyone I know who is interested in a construction project.

Thank you very much.
