A New Way to Welcome Your Graduates Back Home
Welcome to the boomerang generation; recent college graduates who return to live at home after college. There are many reasons why. Although graduates from the class of 2019 will enjoy one of the best job markets in years, apartment rents are sky high. Then there are the hefty student loan bills from college, putting a severe strain on most recent graduates.
Help is on the way
From a financial perspective, moving back home can provide graduates with an opportunity to start paying back loans or build up an emergency fund with the goal of gaining independence. Also, living with your parents is natural. Who better to live with? Now we know that old room your kids lived in may not work for an adult who needs their own space. That’s why at SVA Construction Corp/ Design Remodel Build we’ll help you devise a dynamic master plan to transform that cold musty basement into a livable, comfortable home within your home.
What to create for your basement
A basement, with its concrete floor and exposed joists, may seem raw, but think of it as a blank canvas which just needs a parents and designers loving touch. Before we get to fun stuff like rugs, paint and track lighting there are some basics to consider. You will probably need to add plumbing and wiring and you’ll need to insulate the ground and walls of the basement to protect against noise and cold temperatures. Basement building codes usually require basement windows that both let in light and allow people to escape in case of an emergency. These are some basics. It all depends on where you live and the town requirements.
