Refresh Your Home's First Impression This National Curb Appeal Month
Aug. 1, 2024August is National Curb Appeal Month, and what better time to give your home's exterior a fabulous facelift? At Wayne Dalton, we believe a stunning garage door is the secret weapon in transforming your home's first impression.
Think of your garage door as the ultimate welcome mat, only ten times bigger and way more stylish. As the first thing you see when you pull into your driveway, it sets the tone for the rest of your home. We understand that first impressions are crucial, and nothing makes a statement quite like a beautifully maintained exterior. Whether you're looking to refresh your curb appeal or simply add a modern touch, a new garage door from Wayne Dalton is the way to go. Not only does it enhance the attractiveness of your property, but it can also significantly increase its value. We've been around for over 70 years (yep, seven decades of expertise!), so we know a thing or two about making your home's exterior shine.

The Smart Investment You Didn’t Know You Needed
Did you know that upgrading your garage door is one of the smartest home improvements you can make? According to Remodeling Magazine's 2024 Cost vs. Value Report, garage door replacements are the #1 for the highest return on investment (ROI), averaging a whopping 194% ROI. That's right—this upgrade not only boosts your home's charm but also puts money back in your pocket if or when you decide to sell. Plus, a study by the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) found that 92% of real estate professionals recommend improving curb appeal before listing a home, and 97% of NAR members believe curb appeal is essential in attracting a buyer. Studies also show that homes with high curb appeal can even sell for up to 7-14% more than those with a less inviting exterior.
Enhancing your curb appeal is also a cost-effective option compared to more extensive home renovations, such as remodeling your kitchen or bathroom or updating the flooring in your entire home. An agent survey from Homelight found that investing around $3,500 in curb appeal can yield around $12,000 in increased value, which is an impressive 238% ROI. So, if you want to make a smart investment and enhance your home's exterior, a new garage door is your best bet!
Online Appeal: Captivating the Modern Buyer
In today's digital age, where many buyers start their search online, high-quality exterior photos are essential. Well-maintained and visually appealing exteriors are more likely to attract online buyers and encourage them to schedule an in-person viewing. According to the NAR, about half of all homebuyers begin their search online, meaning listing photos plays a crucial role in creating that all-important first impression for potential home shoppers. Additionally, The Washington Post reported that 87% of home shoppers rely on listing photos to make their purchasing decisions. A new garage door from Wayne Dalton can greatly enhance these vital images, acting as a primary tool to attract buyers.
