When you decide to sell your home, you’ll need to make it more presentable and attractive to potential buyers. That means addressing any issues you spot on your home exteriors such as your roof and siding, along with your interiors such as leaks and other plumbing problems. You also need to consider replacing some of your old windows and doors, but if you’re hesitant about having to spend for a window replacement, our team at Renewal by Andersen® of New Jersey shares some factors that might change your mind:
Newly installed quality windows can effectively enhance your home’s visual appeal and make for a more attractive option in the market. While you may choose to leave your current windows intact, this might not be appealing to many future buyers depending on their condition. If any of your windows and doors are drafty, cracked or warped, any buyer will notice this upon inspection and may want a lower asking price because they’ll have to spend on replacing them after it’s sold.
If you want to sell your home quickly, make the necessary repairs for your windows. Other parts of your home should be repaired and replaced as well if they’re not in good condition, especially your sliding patio doors and siding.
A survey conducted by the National Association of Home Builders has revealed that around 87 percent of potential homeowners consider new and more energy-efficient windows as “essential desirable” when in the market for buying new homes. Of course, there’s no need to replace your current windows if they’re only a few years old and have been maintained regularly. But depending on its age and current condition, we recommend having them replaced with more energy-efficient windows.
