Some zoning has minimum square footage like 1,000 sq ft. 

@Yasmin SharbafAs mentioned how did they calculate square footage?

Market: Philly- surrounding job suburbsTypical sq footage: 1000Rehab quality- class BI have been told to expect to spend about 100k for a full gut on a property that’s about 2000 sq ft.

I was checking my ADU permit and noticed there are 2 different sq ft mentioned with 2 different date i.e on in the original permit and one in the new address. I was wondering if i can ask property assessor to update t...

I have not had an official appraisal but two of my neighbors sold their homes recently for 260k and our houses are identical in layout and square footage.

Have you done drone footage and professional photography? 

This location is amazing and you can easily add the square footage to get over 2 million at the sale after the remodel.

Normally, for comparables, you want to look up recently sold properties within a half mile to a mile (the closer the better), in similar condition, square footage, amendities as the end product, and the same or similar bedroom/bathroom count.

I asked my agent why the Sellers would downplay the property as only 1,895 sq ft and she said it looks like the current owners bought the house with the sunroom install, but could’ve later added the heating/cooling systems BUT, didn’t go to the county to get it permitted/assessed to be added as true sq footage.

@Tom ServerAdding it over existing subfloor will require you to undercut all your doors, and cause havoc throughout the unitYou should replace it as it’s mentioned.Depending on the square footage of the unit not sure if 5k will be enough and assume unit is completely empty of personal belongings and has no flooring in the unit over the subfloor
