For 2013, the SCF reports a mean family net worth at $534,600, which means that if you added up the total net worth of all families surveyed and divided that by the total number of families in the survey, the resulting value would be $534,600.
Typically the most expensive type of foundation, the full basement variety consists of a slab basement floor with stem walls that extend from the basement floor to the main level of the building and footers. Homeowners who choose this type of foundation will incur higher costs due to the need for deeper excavation. Grading and forms are also needed in addition to drainage, waterproofing and concrete reinforcements in the basement walls. People who choose a full basement foundation may pay as much as $30,000.
Wow, big basement! No, you donât need to drywall to call it finished, they can certainly be left painted and thatâs it. My best guess (for just the drywall) for a 1400 sq. foot basement (walls and ceilings) would be between $3,000 to $5,000.et's say an average basement is 1,000 square feet of finished space. So the cost of a basement is between $10,000 and $35,000. 10k if you're doing most of the work yourself and up to $35,000 if you're hiring a contractor to finish your basement. Now.
