According to an article published by Mansion Global, natural light adds value to a home, although its exact value is hard to measure.
“Home shoppers usually spend longer times touring sunlit abodes than they do darker homes,” said broker Nadine Adamson.
The article says natural light is linked to increased productivity and well-being. Natural light, with proper window treatments, also gives the feeling of luxury living.
“For developers, natural sunlight is a treasured commodity,” said senior vice president for development as the Moinian Group, Aron Kirsch. “It simultaneously attracts tenants to a development while enhancing their overall live/work/play experience, encouraging a longer tenancy.”
Whether trying to rent you home or sell your home, natural light is a bonus for anyone searching the market. The added value of light may not be addressed in appraisals though because the exact value is very hard to measure.
