Extend Your Home or Move Home?

You may be really happy in your home. You love the lay out, the decor, the neighbours and the local community, but there is an issue with your home. The room that suited your toddler perfectly 10 years ago is now too small for your strapping young teenager, the 3rd room is too small for your youngest child or there is just not enough space for you all to live happily?

Maybe you have started working from home, and working from the kitchen table is just not ideal, or perhaps you have just collected so many things over the years and now feel the rooms in your home are small and cramped?

So what can you do now?

You could sell your home and start looking for a new one?

However, this means losing your wonderful neighbours, you could end up leaving the community and you may have to change schools for your children. Not to mention the stress, time and effort that is involved in house hunting and moving house.

But is there another option?

You love your home and your neighbours, so why not keep them?

You could extend your home and make it big enough for your needs. This could involve a loft conversion to make use of the space in your home, or you could extend to the front, back or sides of your home. This can add additional rooms onto your home, or make rooms bigger to give you more living space.

Apart from the extra rooms or space that you will give yourself, there is another benefit. By upgrading your home to bigger rooms or additional rooms you will be adding value to your home.

While the increase in the value of property further to a loft conversion or extension changes from home to home, nationwide figures suggest that a loft conversion could add 21% to the value of your property and an extra room through an extension will add around 11% to the value of your home.

An extension to your home also means you can avoid the costs of moving house, such as estate agent fees, solicitor fees, removals vans, stamp duty and more. Of course an extension is not free of charge, but when you weigh up the cost of extending your home versus buying a new home and moving house, including all the pros and cons, you will be able to make and easy and well informed decision.
