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: Is it cheaper to buy a garage or build one?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s cheaper to build a garage, but it depends on how much of the labor you do yourself. If you can do most of it yourself, it tends to be cheaper than buying a prefab garage. But if you hire a contractor to build it, it&rsquo;ll likely end up more expensive than a prefab garage.</p></div>

Q: What are the pros and cons of adding a room above my garage?

• <div><p>A new space over the garage offers several upsides, including added living space, more storage space, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-additions-add-value.htm">boosted home value from the addition</a>. If you create an attached ADU with the space, you could secure more privacy for you and any guests you have, or even some rental income if you rent the area. However, there are some drawbacks to consider, too, including the high up-front cost, the potential need to increase structural integrity, and size restrictions since garages are smaller than an entire floor of your home.</p></div>

Q: What makes a garage count as living space?

• <div><p>For a garage to count as living space&mdash;and towards your home&rsquo;s total square footage&mdash;it needs to be attached to the rest of your home and have permanent finishings such as proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. It also needs to be livable at all times of the year, so it should be heated if it gets cold in the winter and cooled for hot summers.</p></div>

Q: How much does a garage bump out cost?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-bump-out-addition.htm">garage bump-out</a> is a small addition that extends the size of the garage, usually by just a few feet. Homeowners might install bump-outs to store lawn equipment, sporting gear, holiday decorations, and more. Because you&rsquo;re not changing the existing garage structure as much, a bump-out isn&rsquo;t as expensive or labor intensive as a full-blown garage extension. Expect to pay around $1,800&ndash;$6,000 for 2-by-10-foot bump-out (and more for larger additions).</p><p> </p></div>
