So we close our first house Friday.... It's been a horrible process, but almost done...
It's a new construction that has a 600 square foot UNfinished basement. It has tall ceilings, big windows, and we actually have a blueprint to turn it into a small 1 BR Apt. Althought that's NOT something we plan on doing at this point...
BUT I would LOVE to finish it.. as of now, it's just the cement brinks. I am guessing finishing it would consist of the following: framing, insulation, drywall, floors and celing.....
It already has the lightfixures, and wired for electricity...
Now, I am willingly admit, Idon't know the first thing about this... BUT I feel like this shouldn't cost that much....
What should I expect to pay??
Is this something I can I hire an experienced handyman for and save some money, or should I do through a contractor/company...
Regardless, would love to know what to expect to pay.
