We've given you fairly regular updates on one of our newest remodel projects located in Apple Valley Estates. We are finishing up and thought a preview photo before the big reveal would be timely. We made sure to preserve a lot of the original charm this house had to offer while bringing it up-to-date in the best way possible for families in today's world.

Often times, especially when considering a new home, we're asked: which home style do you like best? Traditional, tudor, bungalow, colonial? There's endless choices and this guide can help you figure out which style you like best and the unique details that make it what it is. Some of these categories are new ones for me and some may be home styles you didn't even realize had a categorical name. Check these out and see where your interest lies. It can most definitely help narrow down your choices when it comes to showings or design if you're building a custom home.
We all come to that point as homeowners where we decide it's time for a little change or maybe a few updates. Some may go all in and decide to start from scratch or build a brand new custom dream home while others may take small steps to improve their living space with a little creative remodeling. Here are some awesome remodeling ideas for inspiration for the determined and timid alike.
Some of these ideas can really transform your home and be just what you need to breathe a little new life into your space. Other ideas serve as fantastic ways to utilize the precious space you have in your home, all while staying chic. Have fun and share your adventures with us! ...we're craftsman, helping update KC’s finest neighborhoods. Our motto at MOJO Built is letting you know that every remodel we undergo has a unique artistic touch which sets us apart from other remodelers who aim to transform KC area homes into something new. Our latest transformation is located in the Apple Valley subdivision in Overland Park, KS on Rosewood. We look forward to sharing the path with you as we update this home through pictures and excerpts along the way.
The MOJO Built Team has been at it again. This past Sunday, we held the first open house for our recently finished remodeled home in Leawood Estates. We are so proud of how this home turned out and are eager for a lucky new family to call this place 'home.' The features of this home have been updated for the modern needs of today's family lifestyle while maintaining some of the characteristics of typical homes from this era. Take a look and contact us to see this home for yourself!
Looking to buy? Looking to build your custom home? Maybe you're considering remodeling your current home? In any of these cases, you might be interested in knowing exactly what makes up the "perfect" home. A study conducted by HouseLogic reveals what the ideal house includes...nine foot ceilings, single-level...who would have thought?! Truth is, however, there is no perfect home; and what makes a home ideal are the small details that matter to you as a homeowner...whether that be vintage building materials, the color of your dining room walls, or an extra large butcher block for cooking and entertaining. Find what matters to you and you'll have your ideal home anywhere! When Moffitt Built begins a new home construction process, the question is usually "How much will this cost?" We generally provide the homeowner with a bid, detailing the work order and the estimated price for labor and materials. This method of calculation tends to keep the entire team (including the homeowner) stuck to a certain price so it shouldn't vary. However, an estimate can also determine the approximate cost of work but may vary greatly by the end of the project. Here's an article explaining in thorough detail the difference between a bid and an estimate...good to know before you begin construction!
We all know that color choice is a very important detail when building and designing your new home. Add to that the fun and interesting layer about what kind of emotions colors evoke, thus aiding in the decision-making process for what colors should be painted in what rooms, deems this process an amusing challenge. This chart shows the differences in colors and how whatever color you choose can put you in a certain mood. Interior painting can be a fun challenge to undertake and put you in a good mood the minute you walk into a room. There's been a recent trend in downsizing the American home. Downsizing used to have a negative connotation...no longer moving onward and upward but possibly backwards, lowering one's living 'spread.' In recent years, Moffitt Built believes that downsizing can sometimes be the best thing for your lifestyle and quality of life. "Less is more:" a quote I often govern my choices by, seems to be fitting here...we're always acquiring more and more but maybe, take a look and realize that what may give you more in the end may actually be less in the here and now.
Considering a home remodel? There are many things you should not only ask yourself but be sure you cover with your remodel expert. Prior to starting the process, taking the time to ask these questions will help you and your remodeler feel more comfortable and streamline the process. Home remodeling takes time and patience but the end result is often more than gratifying. MOJO Built takes immense pride in all of our home remodeling projects and enjoy every step of the way. Working closely with the client and answering questions up front is one of the best ways to ensure a pain-free, enjoyable, and successful remodel. MOJO Built's professionalism and years of experience can guarantee a positive experience from initial questions to end result.
