Do Permanent Lights Increase Home Value?

Permanent architectural lighting is one of the fastest-growing home upgrades in Québec—not just for aesthetics, but for long-term property value. Homeowners in Montréal, Châteauguay, Laval, Vaudreuil, and the South Shore are asking the same question:

Do permanent lights actually increase home value?

The short answer: yes — and in more ways than one.

Below is a breakdown of how high-quality systems like Celebright, installed by Infinity Lights, add real financial value to your home.

1. Instant Boost in Curb Appeal

Curb appeal is one of the biggest factors when selling a home. Bright, clean, customizable lighting makes your house stand out — day and night.Real estate agents agree:

• Homes with professional exterior lighting show better in photos

• Evening visits look dramatically better

• Buyers immediately view the property as “well-maintained”

This alone raises perceived home value, helping your home sell faster and at a higher price.

2. A Modern Smart-Home Upgrade Buyers Expect

Buyers today expect smart-home features. Permanent LED lighting is in the same category as:

• Smart thermostats

• Smart security cameras

• Smart doorbells

Permanent lights are a fully integrated smart upgrade with an app that controls colors, brightness, schedules, and modes.

It’s a luxury feature — and buyers pay more for homes that already have it installed.

3. No More Holiday Light Hassle (A Huge Selling Point)

Buyers love knowing they’ll never need to:

• Climb dangerous ladders

• Pay installers every year

• Store bulky Christmas lights

• Wrestle with cold weather installs

Homes that eliminate maintenance get priority attention.This is a lifetime convenience upgrade — and families with kids appreciate it even more.

4. Architectural Lighting Adds Permanent Nighttime Beauty

Unlike temporary lights, permanent lights:

• Highlight peaks, gables, and rooflines

• Bring out architectural details

• Make the home look newer and more premium

A well-lit home looks more expensive, especially when warm white is used for year-round elegance.

5. Long Lifespan + Low Energy Use = Long-Term Value

Celebright LEDs last up to 50,000 hours, and the system uses extremely low energy.This means:

• No bulb replacements

• No maintenance

• No yearly costs

A buyer sees this as future savings, increasing the property's desirability.

6. Zero Exterior Damage Compared to Traditional Lights

Screws, nails, and cheap clips can damage soffit and fascia over time.Permanent lighting is installed cleanly, professionally, and permanently — no annual wear and tear.

This protects your home’s exterior and preserves its value.

7. Buyers Love “Move-In Ready” Homes

When a home already has:✔ permanent lighting✔ app control✔ built-in holiday & architectural modes✔ long warranties

…it becomes more attractive than similar homes without these features.

A home that stands out sells faster — and for more.

Final Answer: Yes, Permanent Lights Increase Home Value

Between curb appeal, modern smart-home upgrades, low maintenance, nighttime beauty, and convenience, permanent lighting consistently raises the perceived and real value of your home.
