Does Rhino Shield Improve My Homes Value?
Roxanne Ecklund
In today’s busy world, people want easy ways to make their homes look great and be worth more. Repainting every few years is a big hassle that many homeowners face but it is important when keeping the curb appeal of your home.
That’s why we often get asked, “Is Rhino Shield really a product built to last?” and “How does it affect my home’s market value?”
We’re here to answer both questions so you can decide if Rhino Shield is right for your home improvement plans.
How Long Does Rhino Shield Last?
When investing in your home, warranties are important because they show how long and how well the product will last. Your home is a big investment, and so is everything you put into it.
Rhino Shield comes with a 25-year transferable, non-prorated warranty. ‘Transferable’ means the warranty can be passed on to new owners, which can make your home more valuable. ‘Non-prorated’ means the warranty stays at 100% coverage the whole time. This is huge! Especially for first time home buyers. You are giving them piece of mind on a major expense that they will not need to think about for a while.
Rhino Shield Enhances Curb Appeal
Curb appeal is how good your home looks from the outside, and it’s the first thing people notice. Rhino Shield can make your home look great by:
- Using a ceramic, elastomeric coating that moves with the surface, so cracks won’t show.
- Bonding with your home’s material to prevent chipping and peeling.
- Offering over 1000 standard colors and the ability to customize or match colors.
- Using water-repellent technology to reduce mold, mildew, and dirt buildup, keeping your home clean and attractive.
- Being very breathable, which prevents flaking and peeling caused by trapped water and condensation.
- Keeping the original look and texture of your home’s exterior.
Rhino Shield’s long-lasting appearance helps keep your home attractive, which is important for property value.
Does Rhino Shield Increase Home Value?
Rhino Shield has been praised in the real estate market. Many realtors highlight it as a key feature in home listings. This shows that Rhino Shield is more than just paint; it protects your home’s exterior, boosts curb appeal, saves time and money and gives the new buyers peace of mind.
In 2023, HomeLight said that a fresh coat of paint can increase your home’s resale value with an average return on investment (ROI) of 152%.
While Rhino Shield costs more than regular exterior paints, it offers many benefits that can make your home more valuable than if you used typical paint.
But remember, Rhino Shield’s effect on property value depends on the condition of your home, the real estate market, and your realtor’s opinion. If other parts of your home are in bad shape, this might affect how much Rhino Shield can increase your home’s price.
How Do You Clean Rhino Shield?
People value their time, and repainting a house every five years can be a big inconvenience. Rhino Shield offers a solution that is:
- Long-lasting
- Low maintenance
- Durable
Unlike traditional paint, Rhino Shield resists mold, mildew, and dirt. You usually just need to rinse it with a garden hose once a year to keep it looking fresh. This saves you from expensive yearly power washing, which can cost $400 to $800.
Simplified Home Buying and Selling
Homebuyers often avoid houses that need a lot of work after buying, as it costs extra time and money. This also applies to homeowners selling their houses.
Selling a house with old, chipped paint can lower its value. Rhino Shield helps by reducing the need for frequent repainting, allowing sellers to focus on getting the best price without worrying about exterior maintenance.
Warranties are also a big plus when buying a home because they make the investment more secure. Along with a roof or A/C warranty, Rhino Shield’s 25-year warranty is a valuable feature that enhances buyer confidence and gives them peace of mind.
Can Rhino Shield Save You Money?
Rhino Shield’s impact on property value includes energy efficiency. It’s designed to reflect UV rays, which means it repels heat instead of absorbing it.
In California, it’s even recognized as a “cool wall” product because it keeps exterior walls cooler in warm environments.
By keeping excess heat out, Rhino Shield can make your home more energy-efficient, potentially lowering air conditioning costs. This eco-friendly feature is great for environmentally conscious homeowners and adds to your property’s value.
Rhino Shield offers a low-maintenance, long-lasting, and attractive exterior solution that:
- Resists mold, mildew, and dirt
- Comes with an exceptional warranty
- Has energy-efficient properties
- Offers a wide range of colors
- Is thick and durable but keeps the original texture of your home
- Saves time and money in the long run
- Can increase market value by thousands of dollars
Remember, Rhino Shield’s effect on market value will depend on:
- The real estate agent you’re working with
- The overall condition of your home and yard
- The health of the housing market
