Advantages of Home Additions

Adding to your home has its benefits. From increasing your amount of living space to creating special purpose rooms, home additions are an excellent choice for many homeowners. Some of the advantages and benefits of home additions include:

• Additional Space: Added space is the most obvious and immediate advantage of a home addition. Whether you are adding an extra room for a growing family, a larger kitchen for comfort, or a backyard sun-porch for relaxing, home additions are a great idea.
• Complete Creative Control: When you design and build home additions for your house, you have complete creative control. Everything about the additional room is up to you, from the size and layout to the paint and décor. Your new space can be exactly as you would like it to be. Contractors may have suggestions about layouts, but ultimately, it is your choice to make.
• A Sound Investment: While home additions are usually a costly investment, most homeowners get a fair return on their investment at the time of sale. In a good neighborhood, a home addition adds value to your property and increases the chances of making a successful sale.
• A Cost Effective Decision: Adding an extra room to create some space is cheaper than buying a new house. Whether you are adding a nursery or a sun porch, a home addition is a better investment than buying an entirely a new house that is only slightly larger. When you factor in closing costs along with the hassles and expenses of moving, buying a new house just for a little extra space seems unnecessary.

Things to Keep in Mind About Home Additions

There are some drawbacks to adding a home addition. Keep in mind that home additions are large and costly renovations, and it is best to make an informed decision about them. Some disadvantages of home additions are:

• More room means an increase in heating and cooling bills. An extra room also calls for extra maintenance. Basically, more room means more work to take care of, just like the rest of your home.
• Most home additions encroach on your yard space, which means less space around your house. Smaller yards can also mean that buyers may lose interest in the property. This space cannot be recovered, so you need to think about whether you are ready to sacrifice some backyard space or garden space for that extra room.
• Construction work on home additions goes on for a while, and it can be a noisy and stressful environment in which to live. Having contractors in and out of your home almost every day until the addition is finished can be a tiresome experience, so this is something important to consider.
