Recently I overheard an interesting conversation between one of our designers and some potential clients. He was explaining to them that the sunroom they were considering was actually free! And he's right!
How can a company stay in business by providing free products? Of course, we have to charge for our products (just like anybody else), but in reality, people do get their money back (or a substantial portion of it)! When we install a sunroom on their home, the value of their home increases. There are many variables in real estate, but in most cases, when people sell, they will recover the cost of the sunroom.
When my sunroom was installed, I had the bank do an appraisal just prior to the installation and then again just after. According to the bank, I would have recovered more than the retail cost of the sunroom. Since I still live in the home and don't plan on moving, the value of that room appreciates, just as the house does. Even if the homes in your area sell for the same price (no matter what the improvements), there's still a value. Every home on that street could be for sale but one with the sunroom will most likely sell first. Never mind all the other benefits.
People enjoy these rooms so much that even if they don't recover the full value of their sunroom when they sell, it's still a priority on their new home. We have just recently finished installing the sixth sunroom for one of our clients! Between the extra value the sunroom adds to the home and the fact that people are spending more time than ever at home with family and close friends, our season is booking up very rapidly. If you are considering planning and building a sunroom this year now is the time to do your research.
