I live in Oklahoma (not sure if that matters) and my parents are thinking of adding two bedrooms to their house. One to use as a guest bedroom and the other for an office. Both the size of descent kids bedrooms, nothing huge. My dad and husband are going to be doing most of the work and labor. Anyone one know an estimate of how much the total cost for materials would be?
Answer
A typical construction with the most basic of interior finishes, start at around $80 per square foot and easily rise to $200 per square foot with custom cherry cabinets, hardwood floors, Mahogany baseboard & trim and cedar door & window , wool carpet, imported tiles, spa bath, custom showers, etc.
Other factors to contribute to any cost would be the ease of access to the site with more difficult sites easily rising by 10%-15% and the availability of labor, number of windows, roof type & covering, single storey or double (if you have a double storey house and put the bedroom on top of each other it cheaper than 2 bedrooms at ground level because less roof to build & cover, less footing to dig & pour concrete and so on)
Well, you get the idea, unless you have a specific idea of quality of materials/interior finishes and detail of site layout, location and availability of labor any answer would be a guess.
I’m guessing around $70 sq ft to put 2 bedrooms at ground level with no plumbing, if you’re going to need an on suite that would bump that up to around $90 sq ft if not more.

Does anyone have any cheap ideas for raising the resale value of my home?

I am going to be putting my house on the market soon to relocate. Its an older 2 bedroom home. I can't afford to do any expensive remodeling (ie`new kitchen counters, gutting the bathroom). So I was wondering if anyone had any tips for what I should do to attract buyers. What are the big turn on's and turn off's when you look at a home. This is the only home I've ever bought so I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. We have done some updating while we lived here, but its all been plumbing, wireing, the type of thing you can't see. I'm looking for more cosmetic type advice. Thank you!
Wow, thanks so much to everyone who answered already. You all have really given me some great starting points! Now I can't wait to get started!!

We just put ours up, and we are on a tight budget.
We started by going to Lowe's or Home Depot and buying some of the lights fixtures that are on clearance and put them up in all the rooms. This is especially important if you have old outdated ones. Then we painted all the bedrooms and bath antique white (some people are picky if you have bold colors, it distracts them from the homes features). I shampoo my carpets every other month (4 kids, lol), and spottlessly clean every week. I also, put up window treatments in all the rooms, most from Family Dollar, which is also super cheap! And if you have alot of clutter, de-clutter! I don't mean empty out your rooms, but put everything where it goes, and keep your decorations to a minimum. Alot of people over crowd their homes. Good luck! :)
