Home » What is the Average ROI of New Windows?

Getting new windows is not a small financial investment, but it is often a very important one. If your home has leaky windows, broken glass, or weak frames, your home is in danger. By opting for new windows, you remove that danger and keep your home secure. Plus, if you plan on selling your home in the near future, it is also a great selling point, since potential homebuyers love having new items that they can rely on for years to come.

The Return-on-Investment Windows Typically Provide

To understand how much ROI you will likely get from your windows, you first have to understand that the cost is going to play a part in that. Windows are not overly expensive on their own. However, when you must replace 20 of them, the cost adds up. The type of window you get and the size of the window also factor into the price of new windows. Once your new windows are installed, you can go through and have a new appraisal of your home to see what the value is.

In most cases, when you valuate or sell your home, you can expect between 80% and 90% of your money to come back to you. This is purely from a sales or potential sale standpoint. If you continue to live in the home for a few years before selling, you may get even more. When you install new windows, you lower the heating and cooling costs of your home, saving you more money. If you add in that money then sell your home in 2-3 years, your ROI can be even higher.
