Value in Short Term Owners looking to increase the value of a property which they were likely to resell in the near future have often chosen stone countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms. A luxurious surface really stands out to buyers during walk-throughs and open houses. During the recent phenomenon of "flipping" many buyers sought out quality stone to enhance the home's draw AND asking price, a very successful technique. As the market has slowed recently, many larger specialty built homes found themselves on the market longer than expected, draining the resources of speculators and individual flippers alike. The answer in many of these cases? Making a house stand out with custom stonework often caught the eye of otherwise hesitant buyers. A unique look is what many seek in this world of cookie-cutter subdivisions, and natural stone really stands out. Value in Long Term The value to long-term homeowners is appreciable as well, being able to show off these durable, useful, and highly attractive surfaces is great when entertaining, but day-to-day living is just better in a home with natural stone. Homes with natural stone surfaces retain their value and often appreciate further. Homes with natural stone surfaces are highly sought after for long-term ownership. Legacy and Uniqueness
The trend in American building for the modern era has been the creation of cookie cutter houses in subdivisions and new building projects. Houses with the same building concept and design end up looking, well, boring. Natural stone sets your house apart in terms of looks, comfortable living, and pride. Our home reflects the uniqueness of our lives and our families. Suddenly, a home in the suburbs is transformed from just another house on the block to an outward reflection of ourselves, via the character shown in stone. Natural stone makes a house a home, a place of warmth, a place where the family is happier to live, and a place we can hand down to our children with pride. It's your legacy, set it in stone.
Going Green Beside looks, natural stone surfaces offer additional benefits. Marble and granite require little to no maintenance. Cleaning time aside, these materials wipe clean with soap and water, saving harsh chemicals and scouring pads that are hard on your hands and bad for your family and the environment. Builder Magazine, the official publication of the National Association of Home Builders, describes natural stone as filling two of the 10 most desired features for prospective home buyers: low maintenance and the use of natural building materials. Thinking Stone? Think Locarni!
