[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My spouse and I are fighting because I prefer no basements (no problems with leaks/flooding--plus i really don't like the idea of being below ground anyway. If anything it will just be storage space (which i think we could get for much cheaper with a shed). He thinks it affects the home's resale value and a must have in case we get tornadoes (he is from the midwest). What do you guys think of basements....[/quote] I would never move to a house without one. We love ours in close to DC suburbs. It used to leak we fixed that (sump system). Put in a nice window and a door. Totally worth it. Laundry is down there. Kids do art projects. Fish tanks down there We finished a playroom and put in an extra shower which is used frequently. Put a basketball hoop down there. Neighbor's filled theirs in. Now that they have kids they live on top of each other but don't have the funds to move. Don't fill in your basement.[/quote]
