If you\u2019re looking to improve the appearance and ultimately, the salability of your home, there\u2019s one decision that pays big dividends: enhancing curb appeal. There are many ways to make this happen: plant trees, remove trees, replace an old fence, repair the sidewalk or parking pad, paint your house or re-sod the lawn. The list is endless, but one of the easiest is to replace that old, weather-beaten garage door with a new door from Doors on Demand.<\/p>\n
Garage door replacement is consistently one of the top five home improvement projects with the highest return on investment! It makes sense; your garage door amounts to about 40 per cent of the overall facade of your house. Recent studies have shown that replacing an old garage door with a newer model can result in a 75 per cent return on investment.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re a homeowner looking to sell, you need the best return for your upgrade dollar. It\u2019s easy to spend money in areas where the return is minimal, so upgrades and improvements must be considered wisely. Talk to your friendly, neighbourhood realtor, and they\u2019ll tell you, a new garage door helps to sell a home and contributes significantly to your home\u2019s value.<\/p>\n
Market studies suggest that replacing an old garage door with a newer version can increase the selling price of a home by as much as four per cent. Today\u2019s home buyers are savvy \u2013 they\u2019re going to look at every aspect of your home, and for sure, they\u2019re going to put your garage door to the test. If your old garage door is weather-beaten and sags or groans and rattles when you engage the overhead garage door opener, you can bet your potential home buyer is going to take note of it, and your possible offer will be lower as a result.<\/p>\n
Times have changed and flooring, kitchen cabinets, granite counter tops, and yes, garage doors have evolved from merely functional to genuinely fashionable.
