Worth the Money/Work?

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Advantage
When in comparison to a flat window, Bay windows can definately increase a home's charm. It reaches out to capture more light and views from three angles, and the seat provides extra space for plants or a sunny sitting spot to relax. But does adding a bay window increase the home's value enough when a homeowner is preparing to list? And upgrading to a bay window will most likely require a professional, which costs the homeowner money. So is this upgrade work the money/work when getting ready to list? Any thoughts on this?

Steve - I don't know that putting in a bay window would be a good investment just to put a home on the market.  They are very nice, and I love them.  I would consider putting one in for my own enjoyment, but not just to sell a home.

Linda,  I agree with you...better to install for your own enjoyment. Thanks for the comment.

I never think a change like that is worth the money you spend. Seems like a bad investment to me.
