If you’ve got new dreams for your home or are planning to put it on the market, you might already be considering projects that increase property value. While interior remodeling is one way to boost value, it’s important to keep the outdoors in mind as well. Here’s a closer look at how repaving your driveway can help to increase the selling price. 

Improves Aesthetic Appearance

Over time, a driveway will fade due to exposure from the sun’s powerful UV rays. Streaking and fading might not affect the structural integrity of the asphalt, but it can reduce the curb appeal of your home, eventually causing your driveway to become an unsightly focal point when contrasted with the beauty of your home. Other common aesthetic flaws include cracking, weathering, and stains from engine oil. Repaving can dramatically increase the look of the property, making your home look newer.

Raises Value of Home

Fluctuating temperatures are a common symptom of winter weather. Combined with moisture and hairline cracks, water can eventually seep into the asphalt and freeze and contract. This eventually leads to major cracks and potholes, which reduce the value of your property due to repair costs and risks of injury. If your home’s going on the market, prospective buyers will know driveway repaving will be a necessary item on their to-do list, while a fresh paving job will increase your asking price.

Draws in Buyers

Your exterior is the first thing a potential buyer notices when they pull up to your home. If the drive is damaged or faded, this will leave them with a bad impression. It could even lead them to assume there are other issues you haven’t dedicated much time to—from the integrity of the house to the maintenance of the property. But a well-maintained driveway is an inviting carpet that welcomes.
