Is a scullery worth it?

• <div><p>Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). </p></div>

Another potential issue is that an inspector or appraiser can find issues with the home that halt the sale if the offer is far higher than what it's worth.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Does a seller have to disclose fire damage when selling a house?

• <div><p>Yes, a seller is legally required to disclose any known fire damage when selling a house, including damages that were repaired. That includes damages to structural components and all major systems, as well as water damage, chemical damage, and smoke damage related to the fire. Sellers use a property disclosure statement, which is regulated by each state individually, to disclose fire damage. </p></div>

Q: Does a screened-in porch increase property taxes?

• <div><p>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.</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>
