However, what is you could improve the curb appeal of your home, create excellent first impressions and add value to your home? A front door can do exactly that for you – it is proven to add value to your home.
A study completed by SellHouseFast found that a new front door is one of the most effective renovations for enhancing a home. Their study in 2020 showed that the right front door on your home can add as much as £4,000 to the value of your home. That’s really not a bad return on investment when you look at the price of our front doors!
The research by SellHouseFast found that purchasing a new front door will almost always deliver and increase the value of your homer. Some property gurus claim that the return on investment on a door when the home is sold could be between 74% and 91.3%. Again, not bad returns!
One of the great things about a new front door is that you will add instant curb appeal to your home. When potential house buyers arrive at your home the front door is one of the first things that they will see. You can create a great first impression by having a new front door installed. The housing market is competitive. Your new front door could be what makes your home stand out from the others.
You might want to consider the colour of your new front door to add value to your home too. The SellHouseFast study showed an increase of £4,000 to a home that had a blue front door. Meanwhile, a white front door added £3,400 to the value of the home. A brown front door only saw an increase in the house value of £700. Property gurus say that you should opt for a neutral colour, so you don’t put potential house buyers off.
It’s worth noting that while you might be considering a new front door to add value to your home, the door will last. An average door will last at least 20 years. This means that you could get a new door now, even if you’re not planning on selling your home until a date in the future.
