What smart home devices increase home value?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
Smart thermostats, video doorbells, smart locks, and smart lighting systems are the devices most likely to increase home value. A smart thermostat signals energy efficiency to buyers. Video doorbells and smart locks appeal to safety-conscious buyers. Built-in smart lighting with dimmers and automation feels premium. A professionally installed smart home system integrated into the home's infrastructure adds more value than a collection of standalone devices. Focus on permanent, hardwired solutions rather than plug-in gadgets for the best return.
Why It Matters
Buyers are increasingly looking for smart home features. The right upgrades can make your home more attractive and justify a higher asking price.
