Do you know why roofs add maximum value to your home?

Roofs can be the most expensive part of your house. It is costly to have installed and expensive to replace or repair. This can increase the value of your home if you ever decide to sell it.

According to Remodeling Magazine’s annual Cost Versus Value Report, homeowners can expect to receive 66- 69% of the cost for a new roof back in their home value. Research by the National Association of the Remodeling Industry and the National Association of Realtors (NAR) supports this assertion.

It was found that 45% of Realtors recommended sellers install new roofing before trying to sell their homes, while 32% said roofing helped them close the deal. The group claims that the recovered cost is higher than the spending cost (109%).

While replacing your roof is a good investment, it’s not likely that you can get a higher return than other house projects. Pricing a home is not simple.

Maintaining a roof that is functional and looks good should be part and parcel of regular home maintenance. A seller shouldn’t expect a buyer not to pay extra for the roof, even if it’s top-of-the-line or brand new.

How much re-roofing do you need to prepare your home for sale?

Experts suggest you do an inspection first before calling your trusted contractor.

Wait for inspection if the roof looks good, and there aren’t any active leaks. If the top seems terrible, contact a roofing contractor to make recommendations.

Maximize your ROI with a brand new roof

These are some ways to maximize your investment in a re-roofing job for your home before it goes on the market.

• Avoid layering shingles. Although some homeowners call adding another layer to their roof’s-roofing’, they are doing more harm than good. The lifespan of your roof can be limited by up to 40% by layering shingles. The top can also trap heat, moisture and be heavy.
• Keep your roof in good condition. Inspect it often between replacing it and selling your home.
• Include the roof warranty in the sale. The deposit will be transferred to the buyer so that they have access to any repairs or inspections.
