Garage Conversion on Residential Property

Michael McMillan
Posted

I am interested in converting my garage into another room on my 1,250 sq ft 3 bed 2 bath property in Denton, TX. This is to get not only another bedroom but more space in the smaller house for a potentially growing family. I have expanded the driveway to a 3 car instead of a 2 car already. There are 2 questions I have:

1) If I plan on selling the property later on, is it a positive or negative for potential buyers to have a garage conversion instead of a garage?

2) If I plan on renting the property later on, is it a positive or negative for potential renters to not have a garage and have a 4 bedroom instead of a 3 bedroom?
