How Exterior Painting on Your House Can Increase Value

by | Mar 3, 2016 | Painting Services

When selling or refinancing your home, you need to determine the value of the equity against the amount still borrowed on it. One of the best ways to build the equity in your home is to increase its value for resale. If for example, you bought your house for $400,000 and increased the amount by $100,000, then you will have at least that much equity in your home, regardless of how much you have already paid.

Exterior Paint=Value
While there are numerous ways to increase the value of your home, one of the best ways is simple, aesthetic changes to the exterior. Exterior painting is a fantastic way to brighten up your home’s look and feel without breaking the bank on an expensive remodel. If you live in the greater Modesto, CA area, Jenco Companies can help you pick the right color and style to match the look of your house.

Exterior vs. Interior Paint
While it may seem just as easy to buy some cans of paint at your local hardware store and tackle the job yourself, it’s crucial to know the different kinds of paint that are offered. While back in the old days all paint was pretty much the same regarding chemical composition, these days there are significant differences between exterior paint and interior paint.

First of all, the major distinction between the two types is the environment for which they are used. Interior paint is less toxic and much easier to work with since it will be, presumably, utilized in a climate controlled environment. Exterior paint, on the other hand, needs to withstand weather and constant bombardment from rain, sun, and anything else. For this reason, exterior paint is much more durable and long-lasting, but that also means it has much more chemicals inside of it.
