What this Dearborn range does—and does not—mean

The 1.00 adjustment is a broad planning assumption. It is not a measured price index or claim about the Dearborn market. Layout, plumbing condition, waterproofing, tile, ventilation, electrical, fixtures, accessibility, concealed damage, contractor availability, and written proposals determine actual cost.
