Considering many window companies use hard sales tactics it is difficult to know when you are getting a good deal on home windows. How do you get a good price comparison. A well known remodeling magazine did an in-depth study of window replacement costs. What they were able to find based upon their collective data was that homeowners typically pay slightly less than $1,000 per window. This number can vary greatly from home to home based upon the type of windows chosen, hardware and some other determining factors. The most important thing you could do is to not fall for the sales ploys of window companies who are trying to sell you “cheap windows.” Here are some of the sales tactics they will use:

Just In The Neighborhood!

This is the most common. Window salespersons will pretend as though they just so happen to be in the neighborhood because they are working on another nearby home. They will even use the vaccuum cleaner salesperson approach from time to time. (That is where they will send a young attractive person to the door for initial contact, followed by the real salesperson who is has much less curb appeal.) They will then tell you that because they are already working in your neighborhood already they can save you money because their travel time and fuel costs are lower. A window company has to drive everyday and most do not have multiple installation crews working for them. It is likely they would not even start on another job until they finished the previous one. They will try to get you to agree to hire them right away. Don’t fall for this one.

Extra Windows

This tactic goes something like this. A window salesperson will approach you claiming that they have extra windows after a large project. They will go on to claim because they are extra windows, they are able to give you an amazing deal. Ask yourself, how could they have extra windows. Counting the number of windows they were going to install on another job is a pretty easy task. No one could really make a mistake counting number of windows and have leftovers. Even if they were able to make such a mistake, they are probably not the type of person you would want to trust to install your windows. Afterall installing windows requires one to have the ability to measure and count. The “extra windows” pitch is a pretty obvious pitch that does not bode well with most potential customers.

Fake Rebates!

Buyer beware! This is the worst of the worst of all the window sales tactics. There are some window companies out there that will actually create rebate information that is invalid. Essentially these companies will try to sell you on window replacement at a price that may not be that great. The company will then claim that you can get a rebate for installing the windows. The rebate is usually for a large sum which would give you a big incentive for getting your windows replaced. However, the rebate does not really exist. So when the homeowner attempts to receive the rebate the window manufacturer will state that they have never heard of such a rebate. The companies that run these types of scams are typically unlicensed.

Those are just a few.

There are a ton of different tactics window salespersons and companies will use to try to sell windows. The most important thing you can remember is the following: If they are pressuring you to buy windows or hire them right away, don’t do it.
