Q & A

In terms of adding resale value to your home, vinyl siding is one of the best investments you can make.

In its annual survey of project cost versus added value, Remodeling magazine said that “the highest payback comes from projects that give an older home the same features that have become standard in new homes.”

Exterior home improvements such as vinyl siding also make a home more attractive to potential buyers. According to a real estate agent interviewed by Remodeling, “New siding and new windows will almost pay for themselves at selling time and will cause the house to sell quicker for more money.”

Another point to keep in mind: Insulated siding is also an option. That can add energy efficiency at the same time, making your home even more appealing to potential buyers.
