Can exterior painting increase your resale value?

Posted on June 8, 2022

Having the exterior of your home painted prior to resale is one of the best ways to increase your home’s current value. Here at CertaPro Painters® of Fort Wayne our team specializes in exterior painting services. Our painting contractors have experience refreshing multiple styles of homes from traditional to contemporary. Continue reading below to learn how exterior painting services can increase your resale value.

Your Home Exterior Should Make a Good First Impression

After PaintingThe exterior of your home is the first place a potential buyer will see as they drive up to your home for the first time. This is one of the reasons renovating your home exterior can make a big impact. Painting the exterior of your home can make your residence feel more inviting and boost your overall curb appeal. This is also one less job that your buyer will have to take on as they move in. If your home exterior is looking worn or dated, this could possibly be a way that a potential buyer may try to negotiate with you about lowering your asking price.

Most Buyers Are Looking for Renovated Homes

The less a buyer has to do when they purchase your home the better, and refreshing your home exterior is a huge undertaking. Our painters can make this process as stress-free as possible. When you schedule an exterior painting service with our team, we even create a detailed plan of action to keep your project on track from start to finish. You can check out some of the residential painting projects we have completed in the Fort Wayne area in our online portfolio.

Don’t Forget About Decks, Patios, and Porches

One more area to consider renovating before listing your home is any outdoor entertainment areas. In addition to professional painting services, our team also provides deck staining and painting services. If your surfaces look good but are in need of a deep clean before your first showing, a power washing service can blast away any hard to remove buildup.
