Reasons to Invest in a Home Addition Over Moving

For any growing family, the need for more space boils down to two options: building a room addition or moving to another location. Among these two, the former is a more sensible option than the latter, especially if the interior just needs a little more room to further enjoy it. Here are some tips.

The Cost of Moving

Land transfer taxes, home inspections, realtor fees, you name it – these are some of the most unavoidable costs of moving to a new location. Unless you are transferring to a custom home, you’ll likely take on a few renovations before or as soon as you move into your new home. These are additional expenses that can hurt your budget more than the cost of a home addition.

Accompanying Hassles

Moving to a new home does not only involve changing your address. It is also about updating your contact information on your various forms of identification, transferring medical records to new doctors and informing banks, insurance provider and employer. These are all too much to handle, but you can always think of staying put instead and finding ways to expand your home.

A Dream Home You’ve Always Wanted

Expanding your home through an addition can turn your current residence into something you’ve been dreaming of for the longest time. With this project, the changes don’t have to be restricted to the addition. Talking to the pros for ideas is a great first step to achieving the home you’ve always wanted.
