Best approach to finance an addition?

Hello,

My wife and I purchased our one story ranch for 350k in 2020 and locked in a sub 3% rate. We currently owe 295k. We're looking to have children in the next year or two and both of us believe we will need an addition to be more comfortable. We love our property and we don't see it feasible to sell this and get a new home at over double our current rate, so we're figuring adding a second floor addition to be our best bet. I've spoken with a couple of contractors and they're roughly ball parking 100-150k to get the addition done turnkey.

I'm looking for advice on the best approach to finance such a project, but my Google searching has my head spinning.

Has anyone tackled this before that can share their experience and what they learned?

Thanks in advance!

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
