Which are the best blinds for apartment windows?
Replacing blinds in apartment can be easier then you think and answering this questions may be challenging.
The best answer needs to be followed up with more questions:
- What type of property are we talking about?
- What area is it in?
- Are you wanting the lowest priced product?
- or are you looking for a modern contemporary design to compliment your beautiful property?
- Does quality matter over price?
The answer to these questions means a lot when purchasing window blinds or shades for your property. There are many pros and cons to each product, and it especially depends on your priorities.
Most importantly we will explain the pros and cons of apartment blinds for your rentals.
Vertical Blinds are one the most affordable window coverings products on the market today. In the retail and residential area, many window treatment stores promote other products. They say that vertical blinds are a thing of the past, from the 1980’s and they look ugly compared to other high end products. I have also seen articles online on Apartment Therapy talking about how to cover up those ugly vertical blinds.
I very would like to point out that vertical blinds is the most affordable window covering for apartment and rental owners.
