I believe that the reason that you don't see four garages is economics. First every square foot of land above a standard interior lot of 5200 sq ft is roughly 12.00. this is for unbuildable corner lot land. Buildable land is worth more
Now with that land you can build a garage worth, say 75.00 a sq ft in market value. Or you could build more house at 205. Sure it costs more it build livable square footage but not that much more proportionally in incremental cost.
What would you do if you were building homes? Would you pass on the profit?
