As a rule, building is less expensive than building and usually takes less time. This is because adding a second floor requires complex work on the roof and the addition of a staircase. In addition, you may have to adapt your entire house to the ground if the existing one doesn't support the extra weight. It's not unusual for a second floor remodel to take six to 12 months to complete.
In general, building tends to be less expensive than building outside. If you consider things like digging and laying new foundations, building usually comes at a higher price (although this isn't always true and, of course, it depends on the size of the room and its purpose). Whether you are thinking of expanding your home through construction or building, Harjo Construction can help you create a plan and make your dreams of renovating your home a reality. If you're planning to build an office to start a home business, you'll want to make sure that your neighborhood is divided into suitable zones and that it's legal to have a business from home.
If you don't plan on staying in your new home for at least seven years, you may want to consider building your current home instead of moving.
