Currently living in a 2000 sq ft home 3 bed 3 bath 1 car garage. Really regretting not buying something slightly larger from the start like 2300 sq ft 2 car garage. Looking to upsize but honestly even something 2500 sq ft is a few hundred thousand more than ours so we'd lose money on realtor fees + land transfer taxes only to move to a slightly larger home. We're almost mortgage free but want something larger. We're in the GTA Advice?

We also cannot add an addition to the current home.

Assume it's a detached home, why not expand the living space? Such as construct a laneway house with garage and decrease your backyard space in the process. Likely need to submit the plans to the municipality.
