Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

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’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.   

A shed that connects to water or electrical services is likely to be assessed for property taxes; however, tax assessments vary around the country. Since every state and local municipality differ regarding property taxes, you should contact your city to determine whether or not you’re required to pay property taxes. Some states consider sheds or detached garages taxable if they have water, sewer, and electricity installed.

Yes, a screened-in porch will increase your property taxes because it has a foundation and is considered a permanent improvement to your land. The exact amount your taxes will go up depends on the value of your existing home, the value added by the screened-in porch, the size of the structure, your location, and more.

A heated driveway can increase your home's value, particularly in regions that experience heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures, making the feature highly desirable to potential buyers. The value added is often greatest if you plan to sell within two to five years of installation, as the technology will be current. If you don't plan to sell for 15 years or more, an aged system may not be a significant selling point. However, even installing the basic components without activating the system can still add value by giving a future buyer the option to complete the installation.

Yes, in many cases, a stamped concrete patio can increase your property's value. It is an affordable way to add elegance and utility to your backyard, which many prospective buyers will appreciate and may be willing to pay a premium for. Stamped concrete is highly durable; when installed by a professional, it can last for 40 years or more with proper care, and it is also relatively easy and affordable to repair. While a permanent patio may raise your property taxes, the added value and buyer interest often make it a worthwhile investment.
