Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Yes, siding orientation can affect a home’s resale value, but in what way and by how much really depends on the prospective buyer. For instance, some buyers prefer the more modern appearance that vertical siding offers, so having it can increase your home’s value in their eyes. However, other buyers prefer the classic, more common appearance of horizontal siding, so having vertical siding can decrease your home’s value in their eyes. 

Updating the siding on your home can potentially increase its value. Of course, the type of siding you pick determines the return on investment you can earn. For instance, stone veneer siding has a 153% ROI, while more affordable options such as vinyl have an 80% ROI. It’s best to research which type will boost the value of your home the most if that is your ultimate goal. 

Basement bedrooms can count toward your room count and the square footage of your home on an appraisal if they’re fully legal, which means they have proper ventilation and points of egress, as defined by your local building code. Simply partitioning off a space for a bedroom in an otherwise unfinished basement that isn’t a legal living space won’t affect your appraisal value.

Finishing a basement can add value to your house by transforming an unused area into valuable living space. Finished basements can provide an average 70% return on investment (ROI), depending on your area and the type of basement. As long as you follow all local building codes, including installing points of egress, you may be able to count a finished basement toward your home’s total square footage.

Yes, a tennis court can potentially add significant value to your home. The increase can be anywhere from $20,000 to $150,000.
