So most know by now that for the last 2 to 2.5 years I have been remodeling my home. Down to the last little bit getting driveway redone monday, then soffit and I am done. Or thought I was. I told the wife, we need to replace the garage door too. She agreed, where we differ is she wants the run of the mill seven panel door something to match the paint scheme of the house. I think for a couple of hundred bucks more let's get something more appealing something with a little flare. I think the garage door can add curb appeal and worth the extra bucks. What say you all

The first thi8ng anyone sees when they drive up to look at a house is the garage door. If it looks like shit, the buyers' mind is already starting in a negative direction. If the door makes them say "Whoa", their heads are already moving in your direction. Spend the extra few hundred, you'll never regret it.

Believe me. My wife sets up houses for sale. She doesn't stage them, she organizes them, gets rid of wall shit, dust collectors and things that make people say, "yuck". I've seen her reorganize an entire kitchen, including what's inside the cabinets in a single day. I mean reorganizing the food in the refrigerator, the dry goods and how a pantry looks when a buyer opens it to see what they're buying. She's an organizational witch.

One of the first things she looks at when she parks in front of any house is the garage door.

Nice quite belt drive opener too. With a good solid mount.

I had a belt installed rather than chain. Quiet as a mouse with sneakers on.
