and so many people sit on the sideline thinking there will be a real estate crash.Even if it crashes you still have a lot/a building/a home.I guess BTC is better than beanie babies or little football helmets....at least you probably won't have to take up garage space if it goes to zero.

This fully renovated 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home features high ceilings, modern finishes, and a downstairs bedroom for convenience.

When fixing up a house is the garage door something that usually gets changed to a brand new garage door? 

It would be like charging you for a full remodel property rather than a hovel, because its highest and best use would be a swanky modern house despite never having upgraded it.Ask 2 / Costs & Risk Involved: I need to calculate the impact of what a lot split would entail.

The last thing you want to do is spend the money for a conversion and then get shut down by the neighbors or city.Is there another way to access these bedrooms other than the garage?

@Nida Chaudhry,Given the demand you've seen, a 30x60’ garage with varied storage options could be appealing.

Affordability is about 1:3So yeah on the surface it looks like a big difference, but there's a lot of things not controlled for in the stats- There were a crazy amount of houses built in the years just after the war, so housing stock was easy to come by everywhere;- Homes had nowhere near the kind of features they have now - 2 car garages, dishwashers, OTC microwaves, W/D hookups, high efficiency windows, central heat & air conditioning, etc - all those doodads and niceties drive up the cost of housing;- Fewer mortgages were 30 year, so homeowners had to pay (relatively) higher monthly payments;- Rentals were almost exclusively apartments, so there was more supply for buyers;ETCI think these things tend to be more stories that make for good press but aren't really that grounded in reality overall.
