Home Additions: Should You Move Out or Add More Room?

Do you want to expand your family or do you feel like your house is cramped and crowded? For many homeowners who encounter one of these situations, many just pack up their things and move without ever considering the option of home additions. If you are feeling like your home is too small, ask yourself these questions before you put a “For Sale” sign up in your yard:

• Have you put a lot of work and money into upgrading and renovating your home up to this point?
• Do you like your neighborhood and neighbors?
• Is the school system near you reputable, and do your children enjoy the schools they currently attend?
• Are you close to local amenities, such as grocery stores, shopping centers, and freeway entrances?
• Does your location limit the amount of time you spend commuting to the office?

If you answered yes to the majority or all of these questions, don’t call up your realtor just yet--consider home additions instead. Think about what type of additions you would like to add onto your home. Does your family need more kitchen space, a larger living area for gatherings, more bathrooms, or bigger bedrooms? Instead of looking for these things in a new home, home additions can easily give your home the space you want without forcing you to endure the hassle of finding a new home, putting yours on the market, and establishing yourself in a new area.
