Q: Does a garage add value to your property?

• <div><p>Having a garage installed certainly adds to the value of your home. The consideration is not whether it adds value, but for many, they want to know if adding a garage yields a return on their investment or ROI. While garages can add anywhere from 5% to 20% of the total value of your property, that doesn&rsquo;t mean that they return 5% to 20% of the money invested in building them. Most homeowners build garages for a purpose but know that you can recover your investment when you sell or refinance. </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>

Q: What time of year is best to build a garage?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s usually best to build a garage in the summer or fall, with most homeowners preferring the fall. Winter might bring frozen ground that can make excavating and pouring a foundation a challenge, and spring tends to bring more rainfall, which can delay the building process. Most homeowners who DIY portions of their garage build prefer fall over summer, as the temperature is usually cooler and more conducive to the strenuous work required to build the structure. </p></div>

Q: How do I find someone to build a garage?

• <div><p>Hiring the right professional to build your garage can be easy if you know where to look. Feel free to ask neighbors or friends for recommendations. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, platforms like Angi can help you connect with trusted professionals in your area. You can read reviews, compare quotes, and view past projects. Research and interviewing multiple pros goes a long way in making sure you get the garage you want. </p></div>
