\"GACR_blogpic_hardwoodfloors-resalevalue\"Ever walk into a friend’s home, and right away you can tell they’ve put in a new floor?

“A USA Today study that uses National Association of Realtors data found that 54% of potential home buyers said that they would be willing to spend more for wood flooring – up to $2,080.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

That’s from a December 2016 article on TheSpruce.com about “Wood Flooring Resale Value.” Then there’s this tidbit of insight from a January 2016 article from Money Magazine about “Eight Smart Ways To Boost Your Home’s Value”:<\/p>\n

“Hardwood floors. More carpets are being replaced with long-wearing hardwood flooring<\/a> with a durable factory finish.

Potential bump: 3% to 5%.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

That’s right. Homebuyers are willing to pay a little more for your home if they know they’re getting top-quality, durable, highly attractive hardwood floors with their purchase. That means YOU earn more from the sale of your home – usually significantly more than what you invested to install that new floor.<\/p>\n
