Reasons for Buying a Carlsbad Home with a Guest House

Why is a home with a guest house the right choice for you?

The “guest house” in a home is also called by many other names, technically, it’s an accessory dwelling unit. To the family-oriented, it’s a “granny flat” or an “in-law suite.” To some, it’s more popularly known as a “casita,” which means a small house.

What makes buying a Carlsbad home for sale with a guest house compelling is that it has its many perks. Not only does it meet your present needs, but it also provides room for future expansion and potential business ventures.

Reasons why you should choose a home with a guest house

Of all the residential units out there, you may be wondering why you ought to buy a home with a guest house. Look at our list below and know the advantages of living in this type of home.

1.  Keep your family close

A guest house or a granny flat is not only for grandparents. Extended family or adult children can also occupy this space. It’s a great way to keep the family close enough to be involved in one another’s lives. It also offers enough space to maintain peace among family members.

2.  Save on overhead expenses

If you are a grandparent, you can take care of your grandchildren with this set up while your adult children are at work. This is a great way to save money on childcare. It also opens doors in fostering a good relationship with the younger generation.

If you are someone who wants to take care of your parents, allowing them to live nearby makes this possible. It makes monitoring their condition and handling emergencies easier and faster. You will also save on costly adult accommodations.

3.  Work from your home office

If you’re used to going to the office everyday, convert your Carlsbad guest house into a home office. With today’s technology, doing and managing your business online is possible. You can even hire a team of virtual assistants and delegate some of the not-so-important tasks. With this opportunity, you can focus on growing your company without having to leave your property.

4.  Impress your guests

With a guest house on standby, you don’t need to worry about looking for a nice place for your guests.  You can create an extraordinary experience for them. Bond and connect with your guests during their stay. Make sure they have all they need as they retire at the casita.

5. Earn consistently and passively

If you think you can’t earn passively, look out the window and think again. Depending on the space you need, you have the option to have your guest house or the main house rented out. If you love your home and your community, give others the chance to do so as well by accepting tenants.

Regardless of your age, even if you’re in your golden years, you can always start anew. Buy a new house. Start a new project. Launch your own business. This can be made possible by having your very own Carlsbad home with a guest house.

Wait no more and make that fresh start!

Carlsbad Single Story Homes for Sale

Buying a home in Carlsbad CA is just like falling in love with the love of your life!

There are three major decisions one needs to make in his life: Our choice of career, partner and where we live. The third one plays a crucial part, because it helps us figure out the career opportunities that suit our skills. It will also determine the people we will meet, go out with and possibly become our lifetime partners.

Let’s focus on our third major decision: where we live.

When I purchased my first home 45 years ago, I was a young bachelor living on a ship and ready to have success and make a difference in San Diego. I remember, I was excited to create my future in a place that offers endless positive possibilities.

I would like to share the same spirit that I felt once, by helping you look at the different homes for sale in Carlsbad.

What makes a place so inviting, that all you see and feel when you set your foot on its ground is a bright and hopeful tomorrow?

If your single family home is located in Carlsbad, it would not be difficult to absorb its dynamic spirit. It’s a dream place or what millennials call it nowadays, “home goals!”.

Carlsbad is called the seaside resort city or the village by the sea. It occupies 11 kilometers section of the Pacific Coastline. It’s 87 miles south of Los Angeles and 35 miles north of downtown San Diego, making it the 5th largest city in San Diego County. The population is 109, 333.

If you have kids and are looking for Carlsbad Homes for Sale:

School is not an issue. There are 23 K-12 public schools, 12 private schools and 2 colleges or universities in Carlsbad with an average Homefacts rating of A. Now, that’s the vision that I have as your REALTORⓇ. Whether you’re selling your single story home in Carlsbad or looking to buy one, I want you to have an A-rated experience.

Have you ever heard of the term “Place Attachment”?

Place attachment is said to be the emotional bond between the place and whoever lives in it. This bond usually starts and develops through the experiences we have.

When you buy your single story home in Carlsbad, you will also have the access to what I call the wonderland. Legoland California Resort is here, aquariums, campgrounds, at least four golf courses, three lagoons, museums and my wife’s personal favorite, The Flower Fields right exactly in Carlsbad.

Carlsbad is called seaside resort city or the village by the sea because Carlsbad State and South Carlsbad State beaches are just walking distance away. You can hold summer and all year round activities including swimming, fishing, skin diving, picnicking and surfing.

After exploring the place, you can always go home to your own!

In 2014, 283 building permits were issued in the city of Carlsbad. All permits issued were for Single Family Homes. There are currently 44 homes for sale in Carlsbad, of which 109 are single story homes.

Their 3 bath, 4 bed homes are priced at around $638,000 with approximately  2,019 sq. ft., while their 6 beds, 5 bath single family homes range from $1,200,000 to $1,795,000 with 3,328 to 4,745 sq.ft living space. The median sales price is $630,000.

But don’t be confused with the numbers because I have the efficient knowledge and experience to listen to your budget and explain what can do with it. For now, it is important to know why your single story home should be from Carlsbad.

The homes here have pools, garages and yards ready to be customized. They are spacious, stylish and are ready for viewing. Log on to https://carlsbadhomesforsalenow.com/ to know more about what I’m talking about.

Making a difference for you!

That’s right! That’s my life motto and that’s what I do for each seller and buyer I meet.

My style is easy going, yet very knowledgeable. My goal is to find the home you want at a price you can afford or to help you sell your home at the price you want.

Making a difference is how I show my respect, dedication and commitment to my craft as a REALTORⓇ. Let me listen to your plans about moving to Carlsbad.
