In fact, Remodeling Magazine's annual report comparing construction cost with resale value for common remodeling projects listed sunrooms in the top 10 best values. If you decide to add value to your home by building a sunroom, get the most out of your new investment by only using energy-efficient building materials.

Build a home addition that will not only hold its value but also provide enjoyment to your family for years to come by adding a sunroom. Like many sunroom owners, you'll soon wonder how you lived without one for so long.
