        "text": "A whole-home remodel primarily focuses on updating and reconfiguring existing spaces within your home's current footprint. This can involve changing layouts, upgrading finishes, and updating systems like plumbing and electrical. A home addition, on the other hand, involves expanding the physical size of your house by adding new square footage, such as an extra room, a second story, or an expanded living area. While a remodel improves existing space, an addition creates entirely new space, often leading to more extensive structural work and higher costs.",
