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>

Q: Does adding central air increase home value?

• <div><p>Yes, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/window-units-central-air.htm">adding central air</a> can increase your home value by as much as 10%. Generally speaking, prospective buyers prefer a central AC system over a ductless system or room-by-room AC units. That&rsquo;s because central air conditioning blends into the home easier than individual room air conditioners and typically has less equipment to maintain.</p></div>

Q: What if I can’t find any records of when my house was built?

• <div><p>If you can&rsquo;t find any records online, you&rsquo;ll need to contact your county clerk&rsquo;s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time. </p></div>

Q: Can the architect of my house help me determine when it was built?

• <div><p>Consulting the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-architect-cost.htm">architect</a> of your house is not the best way to determine when it was built. Many homes are built by developers or builders, so there may not be a specific architect to track down&mdash;especially if you have a very old house. Instead, it&rsquo;s best to rely on local government records. </p></div>

Q: Can a seller back out if an appraisal is higher than an offer?

• <div><p>If the sales agreement has a clause that allows the seller to renegotiate based on the appraised value, then they might be able to back out if the appraisal comes in higher than your offer price. If the agreement doesn&rsquo;t have that language, then the seller has no legal recourse to back out. They could hold a higher offer as a backup and move onto that one if yours falls through for any reason, but once the agreement is signed, the seller is locked into that purchase price unless there&rsquo;s a clause stating they can renegotiate.</p></div>
