According to poll of Angie’s List members, 50 percent say now is a good time to invest in their current home. Since the housing market has been not-so-great lately, take a fresh look at your surroundings–now is an ideal time to get some work done.
A recent poll of 150 highly rated service providers on Angie’s List showed that three out of four are lowering prices, some as much as 30 percent to 40 percent!

And while the current market is great for bargain hunters, it’s critical that your focus be on more than just cost. Finding the right contractors is still the most important decision you’ll make as a homeowner.
