Home » Windows, Curb Appeal and Resale Value

If you are considering selling your home, or are looking to boost value for your next refinancing appraisal, investing in new windows can make a huge difference. While many experts say that updated kitchens and bathrooms are key for interior upgrades, windows are a major factor in exterior appeal.

Here at Rusco Windows and Doors, we know firsthand what a new set of windows can do for a home’s curb appeal and appearance. Find out for yourself by visiting us and talking about your home improvement goals. We would love to add you to our list of happy customers (it’s a list that is 80 years long!).

Windows make a style statement quickly
Even if your siding hasn’t been replaced in 15 years, new windows can make a splash for the exterior of your home. New windows are hard to miss, look sleek and stylish, and are just what buyers are looking for. Your investment will go far in getting buyers into your home, and could even accelerate the sale.

Windows can be customized to suit your home
Looking to add a bit of intrigue to your home, something to set it apart from your neighbor’s house? Try a custom window or two. We love working with customers to create a design element with a custom window shape or request. If you can imagine it, we can find a way to make it happen.

Windows can save you money in the long term
Finally, investing in new windows can make your home more energy efficient, a major selling point to interested buyers. Even windows from ten years ago are drafty compared to more contemporary designs. You will love knowing that our expert installation assures your windows fit and finish are perfectly sealed and beautiful.

Are you ready to talk more about investing in new windows for your home? Now is a great time to stop by our showroom or give us a call for a consultation. Let’s work together to give your home the new windows you will love.
