Can Fences Add Value To a Home?

Everyone wants to know about monetary value. If I do this, will I get more money? What happened to do things for happiness, friendship, and peace of mind? Those have value too, ya know. Well, if you really want to know, yes, fences add value. At least, that’s the short of it. When we think about value, we can’t only think about money. We must also think about things of real value. In this article, we are going to talk about the value that fences add to our lives. We are going to appreciate fences for more than money, but for the other amazing things that they provide us! Fences have feelings too! (Okay… maybe we’re taking this too far.) 

Peace of Mind is a Value, Right?

Having a fence gives you great peace of mind because you can allow your children or any pets you have to run outside without you worrying about them running away or getting hurt. Having your children or pets in the house is great. Sometimes though, you really just need to send them somewhere, just for a minute, so that you can breathe! 

Having a fence also gives you the peace of mind of being safe. A house with a fence is less likely to be targeted than a house without a fence. You can have a fence built up tall so that no one can penetrate it! Your home will be safe and you will feel safe too!

Another great part of having a fence is that you don’t have to see your neighbors. Neighbors are wonderful people, heck, you are a neighbor too. The only thing is, you don’t always want to see your neighbor. If you’re anything like me, you don’t always want to see yourself either. So, do yourself a favor and get a fence. 

The Value of Curb Appeal

If you are thinking of selling your house without a fence… um, you shouldn’t. Having a fence gives your home great curb appeal and if you don’t think so, just look at a house with one, and a house without one. Perhaps your home already has a fence but it’s looking a little less than nice. Well, first impressions are everything and the first impression of your house will be your fence. If it’s ragged looking, good luck getting people to want to come in!

Money is the Real Value… Or Is It?

This is what you are here for, right? The value of a home! Well, I’ll tell you something, it doesn’t really add all that much value. Unless this is an episode of one of your favorite HGTV shows getting a fence isn’t going to give you much monetary value. With all the repairs and touch-ups you are going to have to do over the years, the fence will slowly cost you more than it was ever worth. I know, it’s disappointing, but unless you are thinking of installing a fence to sell your house, you really aren’t getting much monetary value.
