Home Building questions, answered by experts

Many providers assist with obtaining necessary permits. Confirm with your contractor.

Local zoning laws and building codes will determine whether you can build a guest house in your backyard. These laws may limit the potential location of the guest house on your lot or the size and look of the structure. If your lot isn’t large enough, you may not be able to build a guest house at all. Speaking with a local home addition company can help you learn about the local regulations and your other options, such as adding an ADU onto the main house.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

Since building up tends to provide useful bedrooms and other extra spaces without the need to do a lot of foundation work and cut into your yard, second stories tend to have better ROI—up to 65%—than other kinds of additions. But ROI will depend on the type of rooms you are planning and what your current house has. It’s not a very reliable way to judge the success or failure of a project, so consider other factors as well.

The average guest house is between 600 and 1,500 square feet. If you are unsure of how large you should build it, a good basic rule is to have one bedroom for every two occupants, at minimum. Generally, one bedroom for every one to two people is a good ratio.
