Renovations to your home can add value to it, but which ones will add the most value? Not all renovations will add the same amount of value to your home and some are more expensive to do than others. If you are interested in spiking your home’s value because you’re putting it on the market, or just want to increase the value in general, keep reading.
What home renovation will have the best return on investment in terms of adding to my home value? The simple answer is: upgrading your windows.
Simply adding windows to your home or upgrading the ones you have can give you a big boost in home value.
Here are some reasons why upgrading your windows can have a positive impact on your home’s value:
New Windows Can Add Curb Appeal To Your Home
You might not realize, but ugly windows could be dragging your curb appeal down, causing your home to lose value. The way your house looks from the outside has a large impact on the actual value of your home. Windows tend to be the first thing people notice about a home when they are looking to purchase one. You can change your curb appeal by changing up your windows and having new ones replace old ones. Once you boost your curb appeal, this translates directly to adding more value.
New Windows Will Help Your House Become More Energy-Efficient
Does it feel as if your energy bills keep increasing month after month? Old windows that are not energy-efficient could be the culprit. Replacing your windows with vinyl windows or another energy-efficient window will help. Newer windows will keep the air from escaping your home, so your a/c or the heating system won’t be working overtime and hurting your wallet. Having an energy-efficient home will boost your market value as well, and is a good selling feature should you decide to put your house up for sale.
New Windows Will Help Your Interior Design
Not only will new windows help the look of your home from the outside, but they will also undoubtedly improve the look of your interior space as well. You could spend loads of time and money redecorating and renovating your house, but that won’t matter if you have old, crusty windows in your walls that bring everything else down. New windows will help make everything look more clean and modern.
New Windows Will Give You More Natural Light
One major complaint from homeowners is that they didn’t have enough natural light in their homes. By installing new windows or getting old windows replaced, you can solve this problem and allow more natural light into your home. This will help your home feel brighter, more open and boost your mood!
