building a house?

You definitely need to discuss this with your mortgage lender!

You cannot just buy a house with a traditional mortgage and then knock it down and rebuild.

i am doing that - sort of - we are leaving two / three existing walls then expanding the back and dormering the top. its worth it pending on how much you do, how much $$ u put into it and how much u originally spent on the house.

The price can vary alot. First step - get an architect.

if you leave a portion of the house... its cheaper in taxes!
