Does adding a garage apartment add value to your home?

• <div><p>Yes, a garage apartment is generally considered a valuable asset as long as the new structure has been legally built. It's important to weigh the cost to build a garage with an apartment against the<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-conversions-add-valuable-living-space.htm"> cost to convert a garage to living space</a> if you already have a garage.</p></div>

Can you finance new construction?

• <div><p>Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project. </p></div>

Q: Do I need an architect to build a room above my garage?

• <div><p>As with most large-scale home renovation projects, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-you-need-an-architect-for-addition.htm">you&rsquo;ll need an architect</a> to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans. </p></div>

Q: Should I build a garage myself?

• <div><p>If you're handy, you may want to take on building a garage as a do-it-yourself project. However, whether it's a good idea to build a garage on your own or not depends on the type of structure you want to build and local permitting laws. If you want to work with a pre-fab structure, you may be able to DIY. However, if laying a foundation is involved, you're better off working with a professional builder.</p></div>

Q: What adds more value, a garage or extra room?

• <div><p>It depends on a lot of factors, but generally speaking, added living space is more desirable to most buyers, which means an extra room will be more valuable than a traditional garage. The utility of the new space will determine how much ROI you&rsquo;ll see. An additional bedroom will generally be more valuable than a living room or family room, and converting your garage to a bedroom with a bathroom will likely add the most value.</p></div>

Avoid! Cannon Pricket is not reliable or honest. After nine months of having our $10k deposit, he did not complete our barn project. We are still waiting to receive the remainder ($3000) of our deposit back after cancelling due to his lack of communication and zero reliability. It’s a shame...

We were not impressed. We decided not to use this builder. Not a custom builder. They wouldn't make changes to house plans, not even for a price. Also beware everything is a "up grade".
