I am a simple word.
To me, add a single letter, and it will make the opposite of me.
To me, add a different letter, and it will create my homophone.
To me, add a different letter, and I won't be so good.
Can you guess?

For clarification, is each line adding on to the prior one, or is it all from the original word?

If the title is meant to be a constraint to the type and location of the letter addition, may I strongly recommend you make that abundantly clear. Right now the puzzle per se only requires adding a single letter, vowel or consonant, at any place in the word - which may be your intent, but given the title I suspect not.

If that's the case, there are likely to be many good solutions - so I rather hope it's meant to be more restrictive.

An alternative answer to those already given
Nob = a person of high social position
To me, add a single letter, and it will make the opposite of me.
Noob = a person who is inexperienced in a particular sphere or activity, especially computing or the use of the Internet.
To me, add a different letter, and it will create my homophone.
Knob
To me, add a different letter, and I won't be so good.
Snob = a person with an exaggerated respect for high social position or wealth who seeks to associate with social superiors and looks down on those regarded as socially inferior.
Title
It has a vowel in the middle.

For clarification, is each line adding on to the prior one, or is it all from the original word?

All from the original word. That is why I said "To me " every time

If the title is meant to be a constraint to the type and location of the letter addition, may I strongly recommend you make that abundantly clear. Right now the puzzle per se only requires adding a single letter, vowel or consonant, at any place in the word - which may be your intent, but given the title I suspect not.

@Rubio I think the title only refers to "me" the original and target word of the riddle.

If that's the case, there are likely to be many good solutions - so I rather hope it's meant to be more restrictive.
