Q: Do basketball hoops raise property value?

• <div><p>While there's not a lot of definite research, some experts suggest that an in-ground or wall-mounted basketball hoop can add value to your home by increasing curb appeal. In addition, having a basketball hoop is an attractive feature of a house since it promotes physical activity, especially for children. </p></div>

Q: Will converting a carport into a garage add value to your home?

• <div><p>An addition like a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-garage-add-to-home-value.htm">garage can increase your home value</a> significantly, but it&rsquo;s also quite expensive to convert a carport into a garage. In some cases, you may see just a small boost to home value. With that being said, a carport conversion can add value to your experience as a homeowner long before you sell. Garages are useful for security reasons and storing vehicles, plus they can serve as a convenient place for storage and as workspaces or even living spaces. </p></div>

Q: Will a new addition increase my home's value?

• <div><p>The short answer is yes. Room additions almost always increase a home's value. But just how much they increase it varies by the materials you choose, the type of room you build, and other factors. For instance, adding a sunroom will yield you a 49% return on your investment, while adding a primary suite results in a 63% return on your investment.</p></div>

Q: How do I prepare for an appraisal?

• <div><p>Ensure the property is clean, provide access to all areas, and supply relevant documents, such as recent upgrades or tax records.</p></div>

Our home inspector told us that we should have the foundation looked at, especially since most of the jacks were the "temporary" kind. Also, many of the beams for the first floor were altered to make way for utilities, had been shimmed, and many other short cuts fixes over the years. CT...

We received an estimate because the insulation qualified for a rebate program. The sales agent was great to work with. He took the construction style of the house into consideration. As an older house, it used the "balloon" technique where the exterior walls were built as one piece from the...

On short notice, the agent came out for what I thought was going to be an estimate. He took a look and let us know he had the time and parts to do the work right away. Once he found out that we were new to the area, he also gave some good local advice.
