If you’re ready to buy, or even thinking about buying a larger Orange County Home, here’s some math to consider. Buyers will pay an average cost of $700 per square foot in this neck of the woods. In contrast, $300 is the average price per square foot for an addition to your property. Clearly, a home addition or remodel gives owners a golden opportunity to expand their properties for less than half the square footage cost of a new home. Does this less expensive option sound enticing? Then you definitely should connect with John Christopher Construction. Among the leading home addition contractors in Orange County, we’ll help you build for less while building the best.

This also is great news for anyone intent on selling their property. Whether you’re an investor who profits by flipping houses or simply an owner who wants to relocate, a home addition can bring big gains. Let’s delve a little deeper into what this option can do for you. Let’s say your existing home, which totals 1,800 square feet has a market value of $1,260,000. With current pricing, you could add 1,000 square feet for about $300,000. This gives the expanded property an estimated market value of 1,960,000. That’s a $700,000 jump in value for an investment of $300,000, giving you a grand profit of about $400,000. Not bad. And, of course, if you simply want to reside in a bigger place, you can’t beat a home addition for cost-effectiveness. Whatever your goals, John Christopher Construction will deliver incomparable results. We can tear down and rebuild your home at the same rate.

OC Bathroom Additions

Equally exacting is the process of adding bathrooms. Sure, this is a different kind of space. Nevertheless, it abounds with complexities.

To perfect this space, we deploy leading experts in design and layout, wall removal, electrical installation, fixtures, finishes, and many other disciplines. Our goal – your ultimate throne room.
