Second Story Home
Addition
How to build a second floor addition on any
ranch house or Cape Cod home.
 
Think of a second story addition cost as a loan
to your house. You will be paid back handsomely with interest when sell time
comes around. Many times the second story is cloned to the first floor which then puts a
house on top of the house.
I have built any number of second story additions for homeowners
who then had their son or daughter & family live upstairs. Later on these second story
additions become rental apartments. See more on in-law
apartments.
Unfortunately, many homeowners made bad choices in the
components of their second story addition & the completed remodel did not
look as well as it could have. People tend to buy with their emotions. Instead of making hard
headed decisions & they fall prey to contractors who do not have the their best interests in
mind.
It is imperative that you hire a contractor
who has experience with second story additions. Take a peek at my new "If I were
you" e-book series about second story additions. It will show you the best way to plan and design
this type addition & then find the lowest price in your area.
I will also explain why it is a mistake to add only a small
section to the second story of your home. If you follow my advice you will
save at least several thousand dollars & your house will have more added
value. I guarantee it.
Bonus #1
Bid sheets ($25 if you buy them separately) they come
free as part of your book. Use these sheets to compare prices from the contractors. They give you
everything you'll need to ask the right questions, and make the best choices about your remodel.
They will show you exactly what you are buying, or not buying for your second
story addition and avoid those dreaded extras. I have added info
& recommendations on most items. You'll save additional hundreds of
dollars just by using the info on these sheets.
Bonus #2
You will have your own in-house remodeling
