Should I Enlarge My Home Or Get A Bigger One?
If you enlarge a smaller home you may find that central heating and cooling systems need to be expanded to accommodate the additional volume of space and that the electrical system must be updated.
In terms of a design, it is possible that the living room, dining room, and kitchen will be too small to accommodate the traffic of a now-larger house with more bedrooms?
Perhaps most importantly, a small house made large may be the most expensive home in the neighborhood and thus difficult to sell.
Alternatively, if you enlarge a home you get to stay at your current location.
There’s no answer to this question which is always right, but it does make sense to look at all the costs of expansion and compare them with the expense of a new home. In considering the new and larger home, also consider that it will cost money to market and sell house #1.
