Q: Is renovating a garage worth it?

• <div><p>On average, you&rsquo;re looking at an<b> </b>ROI of around 80% for a garage remodel, so it&rsquo;s very often a worthwhile investment. However, the utility and value your project adds will have a major impact on that number. For example, doing a basic remodel and just maintaining your garage&rsquo;s current purpose will add minimal value, but converting it to living space might make your home significantly more appealing to some buyers.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to convert a garage into an ADU?

• <div><p>You can expect a garage conversion project to take an average of between two and four months. Your timeline can vary, though, and it could take six months or longer if you need to run utilities to a detached garage, make structural changes to the building, or carry out foundation and structural repairs before the conversion begins.</p></div>

Q: Can you DIY a garage conversion?

• <div><p>If you're handy and don&rsquo;t mind dealing with your local permitting office, you may be able to convert your garage on your own. While working with a home remodeling company may cost more, the added expense is often worth it. A home remodeling contractor knows what they're doing and will be sure that your project follows the rules.</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>
