If you plan to spend more than five years in your new building YOU SHOULD READ THIS: The initial cost of anew building is only one aspect of the total cost of ownership. You also have to consider such things as utilities, maintenance and repairs. These may not seem important in a new building but they can really mount up when a building puts on a few years. A high quality, professionally built building may cost you more initially but it will quite likely cost you less after just a few years of operation. If you’re thinking about building, give us a call. We’ll show you some specific ways you can save money. And keep saving it for a long time to come.
