Often building a home addition is less expensive than selling your existing home and moving into another larger one. With building a home addition there are no real estate brokerage costs and state transfer taxes to contend with. Likewise, if you like the schools that your kids attend, and you have friends in the neighborhood, staying put and building a home addition prevents upheaval in the family life.<\/span><br \/>\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- 468x60_below_Author_Name --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 468px; height: 60px;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3988490936633155\" data-ad-slot=\"5936342260\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Building a home addition also allows you to build just the right amount of additional living space for your family\u2019s needs. Moreover, you can customize the home addition design to your personal aesthetic tastes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In addition, you can better control the costs of a home addition project. For example, you could decide to build the home addition and have the family move into it while holding off completing small, yet expensive parts of the project.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td width=\"3%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"47%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/home_addition_bid_sheets\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-381 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Addition_Bid_Sheets_Ad_250x250.jpg\" alt=\"Home Addition Bid Sheets\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Addition_Bid_Sheets_Ad_250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Addition_Bid_Sheets_Ad_250x250-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">For example, flooring and trim work could be delayed until your budget could support the additional costs. Similarly, when building a home addition you can choose to put in some of your own sweat equity to save on construction costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Home Addition Cons<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Building a home addition can be disruptive on the family. For example you have contractors running through your home throughout the day and there is dirt and dust that inevitably gets tracked into the rest of the home. Moreover there can be temporary disruptions of services and areas in the home. For example, if the home addition involves building a larger or new kitchen, the existing kitchen could be temporarily placed out of commission.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; height: 336px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 336px;\">\n<td style=\"text-align: left; height: 336px;\" width=\"50%\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">If your home addition plans involve putting a second story on the home, then the family may need to vacate the home temporarily and some home furnishings may need to be placed into storage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Building a home addition doesn\u2019t always mean that there will be cost savings relative to buying a larger home, or increased value to your home.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"height: 336px;\" width=\"3%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"height: 336px;\" width=\"47%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-447 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Construction_2-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"building a home addition\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Construction_2-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Home_Construction_2-1.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Depending on real estate market conditions and the size and style of your home addition, you may not recover the cost of building the addition, particularly if you sell your home shortly after putting on the home addition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Note that it is important to do a real estate market analysis of your neighborhood when contemplating a home addition project. The market analysis will help you budget and size your home addition properly so that you don\u2019t end up building more home than what the neighborhood real estate market value could support.<\/span><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"50%\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Building a home addition takes space, unless you are building a second story addition. Consequently you need to be willing to accept a smaller yard when building a home addition. You will also need to confirm with your local building inspector what setbacks and restrictions there might be on building a home addition on your property.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Lastly, building a home addition can cost more than you anticipate if you don\u2019t plan properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"50%\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<div style=\"background: url('http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/images\/Home_Addition_form_Ad_Small_rev1.jpg') no-repeat top; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; height: 190px; width: 275px;\">\n<form action=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/UHI-info\/Additions.htm#form\" method=\"get\"><input style=\"float: left; width: 80px; margin: 110px -255px 50px 165px;\" name=\"PC\" size=\"20\" type=\"text\" \/><br \/>\n<input style=\"float: right; background: url('http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/images\/homeadditionplus-btn-next.gif'); height: 34px; width: 91px; border: 0px solid #000000; ; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 25px; margin-top: 130px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" type=\"submit\" value=\"\" \/><\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The last thing you want to end up happening is making on-the-fly change orders to the design during the construction of the home addition.
