Give Your Home A New Look With These Shutter Styles

Homeowners have many options at their disposal if they want to improve their homes. A focus on the exterior can be a promising and rewarding way to direct renovation dollars.

Curb appeal has a significant impact on how a home is viewed. Manicured landscapes, updated windows and doors, and well-lit landscapes can improve the value of a home and ensure it sells quickly and above market rate.

When homeowners assess items, they may want to change, shutters can be an area of consideration. Shutters can help windows look a little less plain. In most modern residential properties, shutters are purely decorative. However, their roots lie in home protection. Originally, shutters were used in lieu of windows, so they were the only way to safeguard a home’s interior from the elements. Some shutters still offer that protection, but those typically are installed on homes in hurricane-prone areas.

Window shutters lend a finished and distinctive look to a home. When shopping for shutters, individuals can choose among various styles.

• Louvered: A louvered shutter features several wood slats that overlap each other on the same frame. A typical louvered shutter features two sets of slats separated by a center rail. Some functional louvered shutters are operational, meaning the slats

can be tilted to allow airflow. But this is something typically reserved for indoor shutters. Decorative ones have fixed slats.

• Panel: Panel shutters come in different styles. Raised panel shutters present a boxed design where rectangular features will stand out from the rest of the frame. Flat panel shutters (sometimes referred to

as shaker) have a boxed design, but those rectangles are not raised. Recessed panels are the opposite of raised panels. As their name suggests, recessed panels are set back from the rest of the frame.

• Board and batten: Board and batten shutters are formed from grouped single boards joined together with shorter

crosspieces of wood called battens. Battens are positioned horizontally or at an angle. These shutters have a more informal, rural feel.

• Bahama / Bermuda: These tropicalinspired shutters are of the louvered variety, but they’re installed from the top of the window rather than on the sides.

• Scandinavian: Scand-inavian series shutters are very decorative board and batten shutters. They feature a series of cutouts and designs.

• Combination: Some shutters offer the best of both worlds, with louvered on top and a solid panel on the bottom, or vice versa. This gives homeowners infinite options.

Shutters are available in various materials. The most common include wood, vinyl, and composite. Cedar, mahogany, and pine are commonly used woods for exterior shutters. Vinyl is more economical and lightweight, but it can be challenging to clean and does not offer the longevity of other materials. Composite shutters are durable and cost less than wood in most cases.

Color is another consideration when replacing shutters. Shutters can stand out or blend in with the siding and other architectural accents. Shutters also can flank a front door to fully complete an exterior look.

Exterior Renovations That Boast The Best ROI

Remodeling with a return on investment in mind can be a smart strategy for homeowners, whether one is thinking about moving in the next few months or further down the road. Though this approach is an inexact science, in many instances, it’s savvy for homeowners to consider what buyers may want when planning home improvements.

Homeowners may be surprised to learn which renovations garner the best ROI at resale. The home loan and refinancing company RenoFi indicates that overall home improvement projects provide a 70 percent ROI on average. Many high-ROI projects add functional space and improvement. The following are some exterior renovations that help homeowners recoup the most money at resale, according to Remodeling magazine’s “2022 Cost vs. Value Report.”

1. Garage Door Replacement: 93.3 percent

recouped of $4,041 cost

2. Manufactured Stone Veneer: 91.4 percent recouped of $11,066 cost

3. Siding Replacement (Fiber Cement): 68.3 percent recouped of $22,093 cost

4. Window Replacement (Vinyl): 67.5 percent recouped of $20,482 cost

5. Siding Replacement (Vinyl): 67.2 percent recouped of $18,662 cost

6. Window Replacement (Wood): 66.3 percent recouped of $24,388 cost

7. Deck Addition (Wood): 64.8 percent recouped of $19,248 cost

8. Entry Door Replacement (Steel): 63.8 percent recouped of $2,206 cost

The majority of renovations on Remodeling Magazine’s list of the best investments are exterior renovations, making this area of a home a particular point of interest for homeowners.

The only interior project that cracked the Top 10 ROI for projects was a minor midrange kitchen

remodel.

Exterior renovations perhaps add the most bang for your buck because they’re not only functional but also because they add immediate curb appeal. Much in the way it has been said people eat with their eyes first — which is why chefs spend so much time on elaborate plating — buyers will judge a property by how it looks when they arrive, even before they’ve stepped inside a home. In essence, home buyers often judge a book by its cover. A worn exterior may indicate to potential buyers that the home was not maintained, however false that assumption may be.

It’s important for homeowners to consider all factors before beginning a renovation. Certain projects offer a stronger return on investment than others, and that’s a significant consideration for homeowners thinking of selling their homes.

On March 1st, I celebrated my two-year anniversary of launching JoAnn Cilla Real Estate. Time ies when doing something you love to do. That decision, made in the middle of the pandemic, was the best move I made in my professional career.

However, the move wasn’t an easy one; sometimes trying to make a big decision can be paralyzing. In the past two years, I helped people sell the only homes they’ve ever known. I helped rst-time home buyers move into houses that they will spend the next 30 years paying off. In many cases, the decisions were not easy ones. One thing I learned in the real estate business…sometimes, you must give up the good if you want the great!

This month is an excellent time to think about what “great” means to you. What “good” would you give up chasing your dream? If it involves buying the home you’ve always wanted, or scaling down so that you can travel more and see the world, maybe I can help you.

If you have any questions about the real estate market, even rentals or short sales, please feel free to give me a call. I would love to talk about what it would take to make your dream a reality. No obligation whatsoever.

In the meantime, let’s get ready for warmer weather, owers blooming, and the sun staying out just a little bit longer.

Happy Spring!

JoAnn
