Extend Or Move?
Why moving to a larger home can be less attractive than extending
Competition for homes
In today’s house market, competition for homes is higThis is inflating the price of most properties and making it hard for families who need a bigger home to find what they need in the area they want to live.
Moving home is hard
If you are lucky enough to find the right home for you, you have to deal with everything that comes with buying and selling a property and the hassle of moving. This process is expensive and very disruptive.
The expense doesn’t stop
It is very likely that when you find a new home you will spend money getting it just how you want it to be. So you will be investing additional funds in your new home, which you could have invested in your current property.
Lost money The money you spend on stamp duty, agents fees and moving is gone and is no longer working for you. Extending your home is an investment. The money you spend on an extension, ground floor or second storey, becomes a part of your investment, enhancing the value of your home.
Extending your home is easier.
Extending your existing home means you don’t have to move and all of your money is being used to increase your wealth.

Q. Is it possible to add a second story to any home?
A. Not all homes are suitable for a second-story extension. The structural integrity of the existing foundation and walls, local building codes and regulations, and other factors will determine the feasibility of adding a second story.
Q. How much does a second-story extension cost?
A. The cost of a second-story extension varies widely depending on factors such as location, size, complexity, materials used, labor costs, and local market conditions. It is recommended to obtain detailed quotes from reputable contractors and builders to get a more accurate estimate based on your specific requirements
Q. Will I need permits for a second-story extension?
A. Yes, most jurisdictions require permits for construction projects, including second-story extensions. You will likely need to obtain permits from your local municipality or building authority. The process typically involves submitting architectural plans and paying fees. It’s essential to check with your local authorities to understand the specific requirements for your area.
Q. Can I design the second-story extension myself?
A. While you can certainly have input in the design process, it is recommended to work with an architect or designer experienced in second-story extensions. They will ensure that the design is structurally sound, compliant with building codes, and aligned with your vision. They will also assist with obtaining necessary permits and approvals.
Q. Will I need to vacate my home during construction?
A. In some cases, homeowners may need to temporarily relocate during the construction of a second-story extension, especially if major structural changes are involved or if the existing living space is significantly disrupted. However, with proper planning and coordination, it may be possible to continue living in the home with certain accommodations. Discuss this with your contractor to determine the best approach for your situation.
Q. How do I find a reputable contractor for my second-story extension?
A. It’s crucial to do thorough research and obtain recommendations from trusted sources. Seek referrals from friends, family, or neighbors who have completed similar projects. Interview multiple contractors, check their credentials, review their portfolio of previous work, and request references. Additionally, read online reviews and verify their licenses and insurance coverage
Q. How long does it take to complete a second-story extension?
A. The duration of a second-story extension project can vary depending on the complexity of the design, size of the extension, weather conditions, availability of materials, and other factors. It can range from a few months to a year or more. It’s best to consult with your contractor or builder to get a more accurate timeline based on your project scope.
