You've watched home remodeling shows. Better yet, you've read many blogs about remodeling and renovations that can help improve your property's market value. However, the four walls and roof of your property are of utmost importance more than anything else. Put your buyer's shoes and consider: are you buying the house for its features or because it can remain standing for decades to come?
If your answer is the latter, you'll want to repair your roof or replace it in addition to renovating the interiors of your home. You can add a new bathroom or play hall, but your buyers will always ask about your roof's lifespan, the siding's first day on the job, and even your gutter systems. Everyone wants a house that can last -- not just a house that looks flashy and shimmering with exceptional amenities.
Many home renovation specialists check the attic and make sure its roofing support and joists are intact. They replace the internal ceilings to remove stained and damaged material. Before they do, they take the chance to inspect the underlayment and for problems that might surface after buyers decide to purchase and move into the property.
Findlay Roofing talks about how a simple asphalt shingle roof replacement has helped improve property value through the years. Read more about it below:
When you purchased your home, it was likely the largest investment you had made up to that time. And it may still be, which means that you want to take care of it and its value for the long-term. Selling a home means making sure that buyers will love your house from the moment that they see it. This starts when prospective buyers arrive in front of your property. A brand-new roof is part of your home's curb appeal. Something as simple as installing a new shingle roof can make your home's value skyrocket. Read on to learn more!
CURB APPEAL
You may not believe in judging a book by its cover, but people do just that with houses all the time. A home that has a new roof will also have improved curb appeal. The term "curb appeal" refers to how aesthetically pleasing a house looks to passersby on the curb. Good curb appeal means a good first impression, and a greater likelihood of selling the house. When a roof is clean and has all its shingles in place, people notice.
ACTUAL VALUE
Aside from the improved aesthetic value, your home's actual value will increase as well. A new roof can add more than $10,000 to the selling price of a house. Because a newly installed shingle roof will last for 30 years or longer, depending on the roofing materials you choose, a home buyer knows that he or she won't have to replace the roof, barring a natural disaster, for a long time. When you have the documents that show the roof's installation date and who's responsible for the warranties and guarantees, you are adding value to your home.
