Do custom closets add resell value?
Yes, having a high quality, well-built custom closet in your home can increase the resell value of your home by several thousand dollars. When potential home buyers tour properties, one feature that most home buyers look for is storage space. Especially as many older homes lack adequate storage and closet space.
If you choose to have a custom walk-in closet built for your master bedroom, prospective home buyers will be impressed and more likely to put in higher offers for your property, than a similar home that lacks a spacious custom closet.
Not only do custom closets provide extra storage space but they also allow individuals to keep their clothes, shoes, and accessories neatly organized, which is another reason home buyers are willing to pay a little extra for a home that already boasts a custom, walk-in closet!
Are custom closets worth the cost?
Simply put, yes! If you want to keep your clothes, shoes, and accessories organized and would like to make getting ready a little easier, it’s well worth investing in a brand new custom closet. Especially if you’re not the type of individual who finds it easy to get rid of clothes or you enjoy shopping frequently and love treating yourself to stylish pieces.
You can also have a custom closet built which glass front doors that will allow you to display your beautiful shoes, handbags, and clothes at all times. So you’ll be able to ponder what to wear to a dinner or coffee with your girlfriends with ease.
If you opt to purchase a custom premium closet, over a standard wardrobe, you’ll also get to decide how many drawers you’d like your built-in closet to have as well as the width of each drawer. For example, you may love the idea of having deep drawers built which have plenty of space for items that take up a fair amount of space such as jeans and sweaters. Built-in drawers could also replace bulky furniture such as dressers and wardrobes. You can even have narrow drawers created to hold your accessories such as jewelry, scarves, and sunglasses. My favorite drawers to organize are my jewelry drawers as I get to see everything I have and organize it by type, size, and color.
If you’ve always dreamed of doing your makeup at a makeup vanity, it’s also well worth considering a glamorous, sophisticated makeup vanity as a built
Better yet, you’ll also find it much easier to keep track of all the different makeup products you would commonly have in your bathroom. It’s not uncommon to lose track of all your makeup products in an unorganized makeup drawer. This was my story before investing in a vanity with lots of drawers to hold all of the makeup whose purchase was highly influenced by YouTube beauty influencers. If you decide to build your own custom closet, you’ll be able to customize the various drawers to hold not only your makeup but also your perfumes, travel makeup bags and other small accessories that you have a hard time containing.
Is it worth having custom closets built in multiple bedrooms?
Yes, while having a single custom closet in your master bedroom will significantly increase your home’s resell value, if you choose to have custom closets built in each bedroom in your home, you’ll dramatically increase the resell value of your home by tens of thousands of dollars. I personally like for my kids to have well organized, built-in closets to make getting dressed easy and hassle-free (almost).
In conclusion, investing in a custom closet to stay organized and to potentially increase your home’s resell value is a wise decision.
Happy organizing!
