How New Doors Can Help You Sell Your Home
Having your house up for sale can be a time of anxiety. When the market is hot your home may sell quickly, but in slower times the process is long and drawn out. People are often on the lookout for ways to make their property stand out and sell fast. A small home improvement with major impact, new doors may be just the thing that hooks a buyer for your family.
Why Are Doors Important?
Your real estate agent will be quick to tell you that curb appeal is an important factor when selling your home. This is made up of the landscaping, facade and the overall look that the front of your home presents to those passing by (including potential buyers).
New doors can kick your curb appeal up a few notches, taking the house from a standard level to something spectacular. Not only will something new freshen up the look of aging doors, but it will give the entire front entrance a more dramatic and finished look.
Factors to Look For in New Doors
The colour and shape of the doors are the most essential factors. Think about the colours already present in your brick, siding, roofing and trim. Is it possible to match those colours or can you get away with a contrasting tone that will allow your door to stand out? If nothing else on the front of your home is unique, be sure that this new front door is with a smashing colour choice designed to catch the eye (while still fitting in with the rest of the house).
Shape can be a big factor as well, with sidelights and fanlights playing a major role. If you have the space (or can cut it out of the existing walls), installing windows along the side of the door will let in natural light and create a spacious feel in the entrance.
Double doors are a great way to open up the front of your home and deliver double the opportunity for a good impression. Double doors can include decorative windows (as can single doors) and are made even wider with sidelights. Fanlights above either a double or single door will add height and light both inside and out.
Installing new doors on your property is not a large investment and may be the element that sets your home apart from other comparable ones on the market. Call a professional and have the new door installed right away to get the offers pouring in.
