What the Data Demonstrates
A homeowner can spend significantly and still achieve a $416/sf result when design strategy isn’t aligned. A better-coordinated home in the same town can trade at $750/sf — or $1,100+/sf at the premium tier.
Size, location, and market conditions matter, but within those constraints, the GD™ role moves a property from average to optimized.
