Southwest Vinyl 'Makeovers'
Of all the home improvement possibilities, outside fencing can provide the greatest return on your investment. Typically, standard fencing materials like wood, plastic, metal, or block, don't affect appraised values any more than what they cost--oftentimes even less.
However, it is not uncommon for high-value improvements such as lifetime windows, roofs, and fencing to appraise higher than their original cost (even more so if there is a transferable lifetime warranty). This can happen to an existing product with recognized longevity/durability when the price of "new" is rising rapidly.
As can be observed in some of the photos below, many homeowners report that vinyl fencing is the single, most impactful investment they've ever made.
