What is the impact of a new roof on home value?

A new roof is one of the most valuable improvements you can make. It signals to buyers that the home has been well maintained and eliminates a major potential expense. While you may not recoup the full cost at sale, a new roof makes your home more marketable and can help it sell faster. Buyers often discount the asking price of homes with aging or damaged roofs.

Why It Matters

A roof is a major system buy. A new roof removes a common negotiation point and gives buyers confidence in the home's condition.
