Your home is most likely your largest investment, so when you consider all the benefits of replacing your windows ― your comfort, your budget, and the environment ― it’s a no-brainer. If you’re thinking about selling your Columbus home in a few years, replacing your windows can help improve your home’s marketability and increase its resale value.
Every home improvement project is different and does not add the same amount of value to your home. Whether you decide to sell your home or start a remodeling project, replacement windows are a wise investment that offers a promising return. However, the exact return on investment (ROI) will depend on several factors, such as the window style, the number of windows you purchase, and your housing market. According to Remodeling Magazine’s 2020 Cost vs. Value Report, homeowners reported an average ROI of $12,761, or 72.3% of their original investment ― not bad for a home improvement project!
In addition to the added value that new windows offer for your home, you’ll enjoy several additional advantages that new windows can provide.
Drafty windows are a culprit for increased heating and cooling bills. Installing replacement windows is a great way to save energy on your utility bills and beautify your home, inside and out.
Energy-efficient windows can help improve your home’s overall efficiency to aid in comfort, prevent heat loss, and help the environment. ENERGY STAR® rated windows by ProVia provide many window style options, including bay, bow, double-hung, casement, sliding, awning, picture, garden, and architectural shapes.
Energy efficiency means savings ― and with rising utility costs, the benefits of replacement windows just got even greater.
In addition to boosting your market value and increasing your energy savings, replacement windows can also be a cosmetic improvement. Potential homeowners in the Columbus area who may be searching for homes online or driving through your neighborhood will notice how your home looks from the street. Looks matter ― if your windows look worn, so will your home!
Since windows are one of the most prominent features of your home, they can make or break a buyer’s first impression.
