Adding a garage?

[Dayshawn Carter]

If I add a 2 car garage to a property how much would that increase the value by?

[Andrew B.]

I have two guesses.

1. It'll increase value by exactly $4,283.91.

2. You must do market analysis as we know nothing about your house, the surrounding houses, or the broader market. A good first step would be to compare the selling prices of similar homes that have a garage vs others that don't have a garage. A local real estate agent or an appraiser would be more qualified parties to help though.

I'm leaning toward number 2.
