Prior to investing in a major addition to your home it is prudent to consider the effect it will have on the future resale value. There are a number of things you can do to improve your property, including adding a garage. By hiring a Chicago garage builder to add a detached garage to your home, you will add value to your homeand reap the benefits of having a garage. To prove the point you can contact a local realtor; they can give you a very good idea of how the addition of a garage will affect the home’s value.
One of the most common methods employed to add to the resale value of any home is to increase its footprint. The value of a property is tied closely to the rate per square foot of similar homes in your neighborhood. Certainly there are other factors that enter into the equation such as the age and condition of the home and the various amenities that are available close by. Adding a detached garage not only adds to the number of square feet of building on the property, it certainly adds to the property’s value.
A Chicago garage builder has a number of plans available; there is no doubt that one of them will match the available space for the garage addition but one which will also compliment the architecture of the house. Any property that is more appealing to potential buyers will usually command a higher price. When the appeal comes from the addition of a detached garage it adds style and function, it adds space for your vehicle as well as space to store away such things as lawn equipment and items that have seasonal use only. If the space and budget are available, a detached garage can even include space for a workshop which is most certainly appealing to most potential home buyers.
The primary reason for adding a detached garage is that the home never had a garage in the first place, but that is not the only reason. Many homes were constructed with an attached garage, as the family grows, many people find they need additional living space and they turn to the existing garage for it. It is actually quite easy for a renovation contractor to turn a garage into additional living space. When the existing attached garage is renovated for personal use, the solution is to engage a Chicago garage builder and construct a free standing detached garage in its place.
