Real Value: It is fairly simple to understand how stained glass can affect your home’s resale value. Essentially, a stained glass window appraises for significantly more per square foot than what you paid per square foot. In fact, the multiplier is larger than one might expect–sometimes as high as 10X what you originally paid.
