Correction. New windows may help convince a buyer with regards to energy efficiency, however it has NO bearing on the home value from an appraisers standpoint.
Thank you for mentioning it so I can clarify, if an owner installs hurricane impact windows, they will add value for an appraisal and lower their home owners insurance policy.
Energy Efficient Double Pane Windows on a 2005 built home that had humidity damage of the wood, still functional but rough, brought down the appraisal by 10k. Not sure where you are getting your info. Windows do make a big deal and I told them It wouldn’t appraise for what they were asking. (And it didn’t) due to the windows.
You know, in another of your videos I watched recently, (5 things NOT to do when selling your home), you completley contradict yourself from what you are saying in this video! For example, you said in the previous video that people should NOT put on a new roof when putting house on the market, in this video you are advising that people should put a new roof on to insure a good appraisel! Whats THAT all about???????
Thank you for the comment. What I'm saying on the video "5 things not to do when selling your home" is if you have waited until you are selling a property to add a roof, that's not the time because many new homeowners want a specific type of roof and you are better off giving a credit as a seller to a buyer at closing, if necessary. In the video "What hurts a home appraisal", I'm stating a new roof gives lots of value towards the home however, if a homeowner hasn't already done it then you will know the appraisal may possibly come in with a lower appraised value. Putting on a new roof when you are ready to sell won't necessarily mean you will have a total return on that investment if a homeowner waits to the end of owning that property, but that was a choice during homeownership not to replace it and an understanding it will bring a lower appraised value.
