Contractor Shop and Garage appraisals in Connecticut
Appraisals of contractor shops, truck and equipment garages, and service buildings with outdoor storage yards, usually owner-occupied.
What drives contractor shop and garage value
Overhead doors and clear height
Door size and ceiling height decide what trucks and equipment the building can handle, and who would buy it next.
Yard and outdoor storage
Usable, permitted yard space for trucks, materials and equipment often matters as much as the building.
Zoning
Contractor yards are allowed only in certain zones, which limits supply and supports value.
Office and residence
Many shops include an office or even a house, which we value as part of the whole property.
