More than a few homeowners are trying to improve their home in some way or another. But not everyone is applying improvements with a mind toward increasing their home’s value in the future. If you intend to spend the rest of your days in that house, then maybe it’s fine. But if you are at least open to the possibility of selling at some point, you should give a thought to everything you alter.
That said, one of the things you can consider anytime without worries is window replacement in Salem, OR. Many people wonder if this is truly a value-increasing decision. The fact of the matter is, if you don’t replace old windows, you may be missing out on a great opportunity to boost your home’s value and curb appeal.
How do Windows Improve a House?
1. Value. Replacing your old, drafty, and broken windows with energy-efficient models like Renewal by Andersen® windows can raise your home’s value by up to a few thousand dollars. Even if it doesn’t, depending on where you’re located, you can expect to recoup at least 85% of what you spent on the new windows. If you consider the savings you’ll get from the energy efficiency they provide your home, the cost of replacement is worth it. In terms of comfort, you’ll thank yourself for your decision to replace those old, failing windows. Many home buyers look at the windows first, and our Portland, OR, replacement windows are sure to appeal to them.
2. Looks. The role windows play in completing that picture-perfect curb appeal is priceless. Classy windows make your home look a whole lot better than it would with plain ones. Aesthetics, of course, plays a huge role, so don’t underestimate the power of looks.
