Dan Ross on how D.W. Ross supplies the windows and works with your installer, and, if you don't have one, passes along the name of an installer you hire and pay directly.
Dan Ross on why new windows help a rental or a resale, and the per-window figure he gives rehabbers for a white vinyl double tilt window so they can price an offer.
Dan Ross, D.W. Ross Company. 1:06.
By putting new windows in a house, it's instant gratification.
But it also gives the house great curb appeal. So if you're trying to rent or you're trying to sell, putting new windows in, you know, enhances the look of the house.
And a lot of people are hesitant about putting windows in a house because they call out these other window companies and they're hearing prices of like $1,500 to $2,000 a window opening. We're a wholesaler. So on average, what I tell these rehabbers are when you're standing in front of our property that figure about $220 bucks a window plus tax. Okay. And that gives you a pretty good approximate. We're going to come out pretty close to there. Sometimes we'll be a little bit cheaper per window, but not a huge amount. And sometimes we'll be a little bit higher, but the $220 bucks gives them a pretty good idea when they're trying to make an offer on it. What is going to cost them to fix that up? It's a white vinyl, and it's a double tilt for easy cleaning.
