Abstract
Remodeling can be a frustrating, even traumatic, experience, particularly when construction costs exceed budget and the targeted completion date slowly slips by. Yet, with the escalation of land values and inflated construction costs, more and more building owners and facilities managers are turning to remodeling. Similarly, in this highly mobile society, tenants relocate frequently. Further, constant growth creates never-ending tenant expansion and this too requires more remodeling.
