Hey again,
Hoping to hear what you folks would do. I read a prior thread regarding sun rooms but I wanted to add to some of the responses and see if it's sensible to do.
The subject on the field card is 1600sf. They town counts the sunroom in the sf. (it was an addition thats on concrete pillars where the rest of the home is concrete mason block foundation. You also take a step down from the home to get into the room but it has good finish inside(electrical, walls, windows are all similar). It's heated with a wood stove that isn't on the field card and this whole addition is connected to the home by a typical interior door.
So I feel that this 200 sf sunroom isn't a part of the GLA. I'm going with 1400gla with a sunroom. As some members on the prior thread suggested, I am also going to give it it's own line item.
The problem I see is that I have comps with sunrooms but the field card is counting that sf in GLA. I don't want to account for the space twice so would you deduct the space from the field card and comment on the discrepancy and reasoning?
Your constructive input is always helpful.
Thanks
