[quote=bearishgurl]AN, here’s something we can agree on. That “bunch of lumber” can be plywood, “engineered wood,” or Brazilian hardwood and teak but you wouldn’t want to install the latter unless the property location and lot made it worth doing so. I’ve posted your phrase (above), “Everything else can be changed/customized” in all its variations countless times on this board but it doesn’t seem to have any effect on getting some Piggs to understand that “value” is all about location and nothing more, even if just a vacant lot.[/quote]
Not everyone do upgrades specifically for resale purposes. Some people do upgrades to enhance their living comfort and allow them to enjoy the materials/design. Just because it’s a tract house doesn’t mean one can’t put in high end upgrades, especially if it’s their forever home. Also, certain location appeal for to one and less for other. So, just because it’s less appealing to you doesn’t mean the owner of such house wouldn’t want to upgrade to their liking.
