In uncertain economic times, homeowners are prioritizing upgrades that deliver the most return on investment (ROI). When done correctly, certain home improvements can significantly increase your home's value—making it a smart financial decision for the future. Whether you’re planning to sell soon or simply want to enhance your living space, focusing on high-impact upgrades like kitchens, bathrooms, and unique features such as wine displays and glass railings is a great strategy.
At Apex Glass Industries, we understand the Georgia housing market and how strategic glass installations can enhance both the beauty and value of your home.
Why Focus on Kitchens and Bathrooms?
According to the National Association of Realtors, kitchen and bathroom renovations remain the top two home improvements with the highest return on investment—often recouping 70% to 80% or more of their cost. Frameless glass showers, for example, not only add a sleek, modern look but also represent an investment that delivers significant returns. According to experts, bathroom remodels—especially ones involving luxury features like frameless glass showers—can recoup 50-60% of their cost, with upscale markets seeing even higher returns. These modern touches signal luxury, cleanliness, and thoughtful design to potential buyers, making them a wise choice for increasing home value.
The Rise of Wine Displays & Glass Railings
While kitchens and baths are top priorities, unique architectural features like custom wine displays and glass stair railings are gaining traction among Georgia homeowners. These upgrades create unforgettable first impressions and offer design-forward functionality. Even smaller spaces become luxurious and open when enhanced with professionally installed glass.
Wine displays and glass-fronted features, for example, are becoming increasingly popular as sophisticated focal points in kitchens and dining areas. These upgrades are not only visually stunning but also offer practical storage. When integrated thoughtfully into your home’s design, wine displays can recoup 70% or more of the installation cost, making them a smart choice for enhancing your home’s value.
Similarly, glass railings—whether interior or exterior—add both style and functionality. They enhance the feel of space and light in a home, creating an open, airy ambiance. Glass railings have been shown to offer an ROI of 60-80%, depending on the specifics of the installation and market conditions. These modern upgrades not only contribute to a luxurious look but also increase the appeal and marketability of your home.
