As of this summer, the average selling price of a single-family home has made up all the ground lost to the housing bust. Now, if interest rates go back up to more normal levels, the cost of buying a house will also rise.
Homeowners have many options when it comes to bathroom remodels and the total cost depends on style and budget. The average bathroom remodel costs $9,254, but you can spend less-between $3,500 and $7,000 - to fix up the essentials in a small-to medium-sized bathroom.he average bathroom remodel costs $9,254, but you can spend less-between $3,500 and $7,000 - to fix up the essentials in a small-to medium-sized bathroom.
The typical split for labor/material is 60/40; a little more than half the cost is labor. The labor cost includes general contractor overhead and profit. $17,000 sounds like a reasonable average for a master bathroom remodel. A smaller powder room or guest bath could of course be much less.
