[quote=Anonymous]We're looking at buying but the house we could live in now is much smaller than the house we would want when the kids are teenagers. So, should we consider buying a smaller 2-3 bedroom and then adding on a story or bumping out the back in 10 years? How does one even begin to estimate the cost of such changes to a home? I see a lot of this happening in my neighborhood, but it seems odd to walk up to the neighbors and ask "what is that costing you?" It also seems really specific to what is being added, but I am floored when I see homes remodeled to the extent that only the foundation and first story walls remain the same. How is this financially reasonable? Or is it not. Also, I live in South Arlington, if it matters.[/quote]
