Here's the scenario. You are building a house or remodeling your house. Material costs are up. Labor costs are up. You ask yourself, where can I save a buck? Before answering this question, you must be careful, especially if your home is located in an area where other quality homes are built, whether on the lake, off the lake, or in higher valued developments such as golf course developments, etc. Growing up in construction and with a plethora of new construction and remodels under my belt, let me share with you some of the easy things that your future buyers will recognize when they are looking for quality.
1. One of the first things buyers of higher end homes will look for is to determine if the owner used hollow core doors. It's an immediate sign that the seller was looking for ways to save money (where else then did they cut back that I can't see???)
2. The second most obvious is the counter tops. Did the sellers spend for a quality granite, quartz, or other hard surface, or was formica used?
3. The third item that might stick out is the cabinetry. Do the drawers have dovetail construction with hardwoods? Did they use "soft close" drawers? Are there pull outs for the pots and pans?
4. Flooring is an easy one also. Was laminate used, or is it engineered or hardwoods? Does the carpet convey a quality feel and plushness? Is there a nice thick pad underneath the carpet?
5. Though there are many other items to look at, cheap vs quality lighting and plumbing fixtures are probably the next major focus.
There is nothing wrong with with using lower cost materials, especially when trying to keep a project within budget, especially when trying to build more house for less money. Just be aware that most buyers looking to spend in excess of $300k for off lake homes and $500+ for East Lake chain homes, and $1M+ for West and Big Spirit will expect the very best materials and finishes.

Haywards Bay on West Lake Okoboji boasts low approaches and one of the few areas on West Lake to offer sand beaches. Renowned for the "bay of the flags", you will know you are in Haywards bay because of the all the American flags on the end of the docks. Fishing is great in Haywards Bay and the sunsets are one in a million. To get to Haywards Bay by car, one would drive the east side of the lake on Lakeshore Dr.
Arrowood is a year-round conference center and hotel with over 100 guest rooms, whirlpool suites and a "Great Room" for hosting group events and hospitality suites. Formerly known as Village East, the resort offers an outdoor pool, deck, playground, volleyball and croquet courts and a heated indoor pool area. Hotel goers can also enjoy an on-site salon, Minervas Bar and Eatery and lit parking. Located on Brooks National Golf Course, Arrowwood Resort offers some of the finest lodging around. Years ago, Brooks Golf Course clubhouse was actually housed on the rear side of Arrowood, but since then, the course has been converted to 27 holes with a a new separate clubhouse. Also, the Racquet Club was a part of the facility, offering workout facilities, racquet ball, and tennis. However, with the addition of the YMCA, the racquet club was unsustainable and converted into retail.
"The Bridge" has been referred to by the Wharf Bridge, the Kentucky Fried Chicken Bridge, the bridge connecting East and West, among other names. In the good old days, this was actually a draw bridge converted to the current permanent structure. In the 90's when the 3 lane was installed, there was talk about removing the bridge and making some drastic changes. All in all, the base of the bridge remained, and the upper structure was improved. I remember as a kid jumping off the bridge, and fishing on and under the bridge. In fact, an unforgettable memory I have is when I was fishing with my cousin and I casted out trying to reach the opposite corner of the bridge with my lure. In mid air, a pigeon flew and the timing was so great that my line wrapped around the pigeon, and the pigeon went into the water. I reeled it up and had caught a pigeon. My cousin then decided to hold this pigeon inside the front of his coat. We went to show people at Okoboji Boats what we had caught. When we got there, he opened his jacket, and the pigeon had pooped all over his white shirt.
For most leisure boaters in the Iowa Great Lakes, there are 2 main hot spots to go throw an anchor, sit back, and just relax. Sometimes this will result in numerous boats tying up to one another (you may not even know your neighbor), and sometimes it results in a little more privacy where you can chill just by yourself. Every weekend, boaters make the trek across the deepest parts of West Lake to either Gull Point (North AND South side) and Miller's Bay. Thought there are many other great areas to throw an anchor, relax, and swim, these are the two hot spots. If you aren't sure where to go on a Saturday afternoon or wonder where your friends might be, these two spots would be a good start.
Okoboji Boat Works is home to "The Fish Shack" and "The Inconvenience Store". Formerly a marina of thriving boat sales since 1890, OBW now offers up many different rentals, a 24 hour gas dock, excursion boats, and more. I remember the days as a child of fishing for crappie and blue gill here and along the docks of Smith's Bay. Though the scenery has changed, the outstanding fishing has not.
Aaron did a great job for us! He was dependable and followed through. He did a great job marketing and presenting the house. Aaron found a buyer and when it came time he got the deal done!
Aaron has excelent local area knowledge and a passion for our Iowa Great Lakes area. He was ambitious in showing our RE and finding our buyers. Negotiation skills made our listing a sale
We saw the listing with Aaron's contact information around 9 am. We contacted him right away. We met him at noon to look at the property. We made an offer around 7 pm. We had a counter offer about 20 minutes later. We came to terms and signed online before 9 pm. It was about as smooth as could be. The property had to be divided up so it took a little while to close. But Aaron kept us informed at all times. He met us at the property on closing day. We signed the paper work. He even went out of his way to take the paper work to the courthouse. He has followed up with us a couple of times. Just to see how we are enjoying our purchase
Aaron Jones did an outstanding job with the sale of our lake home and the purchase of a much larger home in the same neighborhood. The market in our area was challenging and Aaron was extremely effective in finding qualified buyers for our home and assisting in negotiations in both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. He was extremely patient and reassuring when we encountered challenges along the way. Aaron is a very personable, professional and knowlegable real estate professional and we recommend him without reservation. If we were to list our new home, it would be with Aaron!
Aaron was very responsive and the whole transaction went very smoothly which is why he is handling the sale of our condominium. Our home is 2 hours from lake cottage that we purchased and we were able to conduct most all of our business without having to leave home
Aaron knew what we were looking for and would call when he had a property we might be interested in and was always available when we were able to view the property. He is professional in appearance and mannerisms and treated us fairly
We began looking at homes before we knew for sure we would be able to move to the area. Aaron was happy to show us homes and was patient with us throughout our decision to move. When we were finally ready to move, we house hunted more aggressively. Aaron gave us honest feedback on the houses we looked at. The final negotiation and purchase process went smoothly and we were able to get a house we absolutely love. We are so happy with the purchase of our new home and are thankful of Aaron's help with the purchase
I really enjoyed working with Aaron Jones in purchasing our condo at Okoboji. Aaron has lived in this area for years so he is very knowledgeable. I called and text him several times and he always responded very quickly. I could count on him to show me a property as soon as possible. The closing went very smoothly and Aaron had all the paper work complete when we arrived. I would highly recommend Aaron and know that we will use him again if we decided to sell or buy any property
