The prices have gone up so much in the last three - four years that selling and replacing the house is not much of an option.The average Sq Ft price in September 2004 was $94 and has gone to $151 per foot.
People are adding on to their houses, I have seen one that has doubled in size. More and more are adding over the garage in the multi levels. People are replacing windows, stuccoing, new kitchens, and new bathrooms. If you bought a small home in the early to mid '90s, tearing it down would be a very viable option.

Let's face it, if you took the $57 per foot and added on to your existing Cottonwood Heights Home you could not go out and find a better deal. This a great place to live, named in the top 100 Cities by Money Magazine.
