I wouldn't worry about contractors and whatnot but I like the idea of upgrades. Once you get up to the 10mils house and higher, it seems a little overwhelming to save up long enough to get the next, more expensive one. The only way to move up is to donate a bunch of money. If I could slowly increase the value of my current house with additions to, say 12-13 mils, it would really soften the blow of the eventual donation to get a bigger house. Basically it would give someone a chance to invest their money somewhere where it won't be touched until they're ready to buy a bigger house, meanwhile adding a small happiness bonus along the way.
