Home Additions
Sooner or later, most people find the need for a home addition to provide more room for their family. Even if you don't need the extra space, you'll find that a home addition can greatly increase the resale value of your home. A similar sized house with more number of rooms is always preferable to one with fewer rooms. An addition to your home can also help you plan for the future when your needs change. Adding on an extra kitchen for use during entertaining, or a study area for the kids, or a den for you, can greatly enhance the quality of your life too, making a room addition a value intensive project.
If you are making an addition to your home with the intention of selling the property, then remember that only minor remodels will get you the maximum return on your investment. Avoid major and extensive home addition plans if you're planning on putting the property on the market immediately. A second story addition is more expensive and time consuming than adding on a bathroom, and you may enjoy greater benefits if you continue to live in the home for a few years in your new space, before selling the property. There are also local building codes to consider, failing which you could actually have your room addition project shut down.
Custom sunroom addition that blends perfectly with the rest of your home can give you an impromptu entertaining area that can also be used, by placing pots and plants, as an indoor garden. Your sunroom addition should be carefully set up to take maximum advantage of natural sunlight. New design features include roof vents that open the ceiling automatically when the sunroom becomes hot. A new kitchen addition can be built along the same lines as your existing kitchen, but on a scaled down version. You will need a larger deep freezer, and may be even a built in bar for entertaining. A family room addition can be a brightly lit and ventilated space that allows for TV viewing and other family activities.

Moving to KC (looking to buy a home in Parkville). The house we are considering is new construction with about 1200 sq ft of unfinished basement. What is the ball park square footage price to finish with framing a bedroom, installing a bath and the rest as media room with bar? I realize this is general, but I want a general idea of costs. Thanks so much. Look forward to hearing from you.
