This is not gonna get any better anytime soon.

Home builders are looking everywhere for ways to slash costs. They are finding them in cabinets, faucets and even the garage-door remote.

Builders are opting for cheaper materials and rejiggering designs with cost savings top of mind. Particle-board cabinets are in. Hardwood is out. Countertops are becoming thinner.

Walls now feature smaller and fewer windows. An automatic garage opener is sometimes a frivolous luxury.

The cumulative effect is changing the appearance of newly constructed American homes.

“It kind of looks incomplete,” said Erika Phelan, a real-estate agent at Buyers Broker of Florida.

The cost-cutting is part of an effort to offer more affordable homes when buyers are concerned about high prices, elevated mortgage rates and an uncertain economy.

Still, the approach has left first-time buyers wrestling with how much to give up in exchange for a good deal.

Regular Glass vs. Tempered Glass — What’s the Real Difference?

They may look the same, but when they break, the difference is huge.

Regular glass shatters into sharp pieces. Tempered glass? It crumbles into small, safer fragments and is about 4x stronger.

That’s why tempered glass is required in many doors, bathrooms, and high-traffic areas.

If you're remodeling or replacing windows, choosing the right glass matters more than you think.

Have questions about upgrades for your home? We’re happy to help.
