Looking for ways to increase the value of your home?
Specialty metal roofing may resonate with you as it not only protects and beautifies your home; it will increase the value of your investment. Historically, the Cost vs Value Report by Remodeling Magazine has found that high-end roofing adds over 60% of its cost to the value of the home. Metal roofing as an opportunity to increase the value of all you have worked so hard for and the next wise step in wisely managing your resources.
Regardless of the exact dollar amounts, when you do go to sell your home, having a lifetime metal roof will give you a significant advantage over other sellers on the market. If a potential buyer is considering two identical properties, but one has a lifetime, beautiful, maintenance-free metal roof, while the other has a traditional asphalt roof, which do you think they will choose? In a constantly turbulent home market, no advantage can be discounted.
These days, more and more homeowners consider future generations when making their re-roofing decision. When they reach the stage in life to begin considering what they will leave for their children and loved ones, whether those loved ones will live in the home or sell it as part of the estate, metal roofing customers appreciate the opportunity to increase the value of what they will leave behind.
