What should I consider when buying and building an RV garage?

• <div><p>Make sure you’re getting the right size to meet your space needs, including enough space both side to side and vertically to accommodate your RV’s features and allow you to safely move it in and out of the garage. </p><p>If you’re building an attached and enclosed garage for your RV, you’ll also want to give some thought to whether you’d like to add workspace, water or electricity, or additional storage. If so, you’ll need a garage with larger dimensions.</p></div>

Which states allow shipping container homes to be built?

• <div><p>It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.</p><p>The International Code Council (ICC) offers <a href="https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/ICCG52019">guidelines for home builders</a> on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.</p><p> </p><p></p></div>

Q: What should I consider when buying and building an RV garage?

• <div><p>Make sure you&rsquo;re getting the right size to meet your space needs, including enough space both side to side and vertically to accommodate your RV&rsquo;s features and allow you to safely move it in and out of the garage. </p><p>If you&rsquo;re building an attached and enclosed garage for your RV, you&rsquo;ll also want to give some thought to whether you&rsquo;d like to add workspace, water or electricity, or additional storage. If so, you&rsquo;ll need a garage with larger dimensions.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth putting a mini-split in a garage?

• <div><p>Installing new <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/improve-home-value-new-air-conditioner.htm">HVAC can increase a home&rsquo;s value</a> by 5% to 7%. While installing a mini-split unit in the garage may not offer that much of a boost to the home value, it is a lower-cost option than installing a more traditional cooling system in the garage. Plus, if a cooler garage allows you to spend more time in the space doing tasks you enjoy, it makes the investment worthwhile.</p></div>

Q: Do I tip builders and general contractors?

• <div><p>No, builders and general contractors don&rsquo;t expect tips. In fact, some companies may prohibit their employees from accepting client tips. If you want to show gratitude for a job well done, consider writing a review of your builder or contractor or agreeing to be a reference for potential new customers.</p></div>
