We have been looking at a house for a while, but its biggest negative that we've come across is that the basement bathroom plumbing is stubbed in a bad location... Right at the bottom of the stairs.
In order to get the basement layout to work, we would want to put the bathroom somewhere else in the basement. I've heard some people say that it is cheaper to cap off the existing stub, and to run new drains for toilet and the shower.
I have no idea either way, but have no idea what it would cost to do either? I know that there are a lot of variables, and I'm not afraid to do work myself, but don't know where to start. I just want to get some figures so that I know how much more I need to account for cost wise to finish the basement and factor that in to the value (or expense) of buying that particular house.
