+10 Depending on local rules, it can be the only way. In my town, any building NOT attached to the house is limited to 600 square feet. But they measure outside dimensions rather than height. So a TALL garage can be the best use of the footprint.

Please don't confuse ebay "asking" prices with "selling" prices. Many sellers never get their ask price. some are far from it. Value is determined once an item actually SELLS. Its easy enough to check SOLD prices.
