Hey Chris, a few thoughts here.Considering that office is not attached to the house, I wouldn’t add any footage to the total home square footage; however, you could advertise that office space and amount of footage and amenities in your remarks.If you’re a Realtor or are using one for the sale, your local MLS may have fields dedicated to additional footage for other buildings on the property, such as ADU’s.The other point is that typically, perhaps depending upon location, a space needs to have heating to count in the square footage, which this office doesn’t have if I understand correctly.Consider contacting an appraiser to inquire about how they would handle this space on an appraisal, or a Realtor.

My name is Rebecca and my husband, Nick Knox III and I have run Captain Save a Home LLC, Brew City REI Club, Brew City REI Training Cafe and Wisconsin Contractor and Handyman Club based out of Milwaukee, WI for over a decade.

Most, if not all quads, in my market are a box building with two units on second floor and two units on first.  

Having the right partners on the design and build is what I have found to be the most important piece of the puzzle.  

We would like to build our own relationships, gain knowledge and find deals.

One of my contractors.

My partners and I (3 of us) are based in Miami FL (not the easiest market at the moment) we are all realtors / brokers and investors, each have 20+ years of experience down here, have done multiple ground up single Family and duplex builds and currently have a portfolio of single fam and duplex properties.

Build up for your next investment.I'm not actually spending any of the investment money on myself for a car or vacation.

My advice to you would be to explore the increasing number of renovated 2 families vs the $1.2M+ builds.
