Property values are influenced by a variety of factors. Condition, location, and square footage are common influencers.
You might wonder if fencing can impact your home and property values. There are some fencing specifics worth considering now or in the future relative to your home and its surroundings.
Fence factors that can increase (or decrease) your property values
The “peace of mind” factor
A fence creates a boundary and ensures privacy and security. Those are peace of mind elements that factor into your home’s value.
Location and residential design can heighten the need for privacy and security. Homes in close proximity to each other or those in more urban zones would likely benefit from this property value factor.
The “curb appeal” factor
Your fence design can compliment your property appearance. Fencing that’s well-maintained and that aligns with your home’s exterior design and decor has a positive impact on property values.
Keep design in mind when installing or upgrading your fence. Certain home styles and exterior features are complimented by a particular fence design.
The “set-it-and-forget-it” factor
This factor covers the maintenance and durability values associated with your fencing choice. All fence types require routine maintenance, thus it’s not (literally) forgotten – though some require more or less maintenance than others.
Longevity is also part of the value equation for fencing. The combination of up-keep and lifespan are factors worth considering with each type of fence material.
- Classic design and appearance
- Value factor: Routine maintenance for protection from rot and insects
- Virtually maintenance free
- Value factor: minimal upkeep can increase longevity
Iron/metal and chain-link fencing
- Durable and long-lasting
- Value factor: durability and custom-design options
The “legal”factor
Fence installation must meet local, community, and neighborhood regulations. Covering your bases on fencing compliance factors sets your property values up for success.
Think about fencing as more than a property boundary. Thoughtful and intentional design factors can have an significant impact on your home and property values.
Again, it’s important to cover-your-bases on security, aesthetics, material durability, and compliance. Professional fence installers are your best resource for confirming that your fencing project increases rather than reduces your property values.
