Should I Stay or Should I Go?

Benefits of Adding On vs. Moving

Deciding whether to add on to your existing home or move to a new one is a significant choice. There are a few major benefits to adding on an addition vs. making a move - especially during a volatile housing market.

✅ Stay in Your Preferred Location
If you love your local schools, have short commutes, or have built strong community ties, adding an addition to your home allows you to enjoy more space without uprooting your life.

✅ Customize and Personalize

Home additions allow you to tailor your space to meet your exact needs. An addition provides the flexibility to design a space that works for your lifestyle. Finding a new home with what you want is always a gamble.

✅ Avoid Moving Costs and Market Uncertainty

Moving involves significant expenses. Additionally, navigating the real estate market can be challenging, particularly
with the high housing prices and fluctuating mortgage rates.

Meet the Titus Team

The business world can feel pretty rough-and-tumble at times. The overblown egos, the broken promises, the inflated prices—it can all be so frustrating. Business transactions too often feel like ordeals to be survived. But they really should be mutually beneficial exchanges that help both sides in equal measure.

When we launched Titus Contracting, we wanted to be a different type of business. We decided to test the old adage that says nice guys (and gals) finish last. We were convinced we could build a successful business on a foundation of human decency. If we were wrong, we’d just do something else to make a living.
