Garage Conversion Pro/Cons

BP Family, I'm currently evaluating a 3b/2ba fix/flip where we would be converting a 400 sqft 2 car attached garage into a master with bath / walk in closet. Will take the sqft of the house from 1200 to 1600. Will also add a mud room which would be connected to the new (relocated) laundry room next to the rear entrance. This will also allow me to maximize more space for the kitchen as we would be able to relocate the water heater and W/D. I see many upsides, but the biggest drawback would be the removal of a garage. Seeing if the obvious pros outweighs the cons. Happy to hear your experience and thoughts. Thanks.
