While there may be many renovations, repairs and upgrades that could help you sell your home, choosing which one to spend your money on may rest upon which one is most likely to give you a higher return on your investment.
Would it surprise you to know that a garage door replacement could be of the most value?
It’s all about the curb appeal
Of course, what’s inside your home is important, but if you can’t even get prospective buyers through the door, you’re going to seriously struggle to sell your home.
Curb appeal is hugely important, and what buyers see when they approach a property can have a significant impact upon their initial impressions of a home and affect their decision as to whether they want to live there. An old, weathered and poorly maintained garage door can signal to buyers that what lies inside the property, may be equally as uninspiring, and certainly doesn’t give the impression that the property is well cared for.
Newer, more modern doors have improved features
Not only are new garage doors safer and more reliable, but they’re typically better insulated, too, and this can be a major selling point for prospective buyers. A well-insulated garage door means that the space can be comfortably used for multiple purposes, such as a gym, workshop or hobby room.
This upgrade is much cheaper than others
Replacing your garage door costs a lot less than many other upgrades you might consider carrying out to help you sell your property, such as bathroom or kitchen remodeling, or the addition of an extra room.
Not only are garage door replacements relatively cheap, they’re simple, too. Taking no more than an hour or two at most if installed by a professional garage door specialist, you can make this change the very same day that you’re expecting potential buyers to visit your home!
Modern garage door replacements come in an array of colors, styles and materials
With so many styles, colors and designs to choose from, you can replace your existing garage door with one that matches or complements your home perfectly, and make it look all the more irresistible to prospective buyers.
