Are you planning to put your home up for sale? It can be a stressful process, especially if you take the condition of your home’s components into account. One thing you need to focus on as you prepare for this endeavor is to determine if your roof is still intact or needs work.
Depending on the assessment of your residential roofing contractor, you may either have your roof repaired or replaced. We highlight four reasons this makes sense before listing your home for sale.
1. Minimize negotiations with a potential buyer. Taking care of the roofing work ahead allows you to have the upper hand during negotiations with a buyer. You can even use your newly installed roof as leverage to justify the price for your property. Leaving your roof as it is means giving the buyer the upper hand in negotiating a fair price based on the fact that your property requires repairs.
2. Lessen the buyer’s worries. Homebuyers want a property to be ready to move into. With that in mind, having your roof repaired or replaced makes sense. You are giving a potential buyer peace of mind that your home is in good condition. The less work a buyer has to do, the quicker the process will be for both parties.
3. Enhance curb appeal. By investing in asphalt shingles installation or roofing maintenance, you increase your home’s curb appeal, which, in turn, makes your property more marketable. When putting your home up for sale, consider mentioning that it has a newly installed roof or an existing roof that has undergone regular maintenance.
4. Attract more buyers to your property. Increasing the curb appeal of your home means attracting more potential buyers. In fact, your home is more likely to stand out if it has a newly installed roof. Obviously, buyers tend to skip properties with roofs that have missing shingles or deformed flashings.
