window trim

I have a cedar clapboard home (Boston area) . My windows have no tirm or exterior window sills.

Is the any economic benefit to adding window trim with or without sills

I know the house will look better with trim , I am to justify the cost somehow.

thanks

The only "benefit" would be if all of the homes around you have detailed trim. Adding trim to yours would keep it from being viewed as lacking or substandard when compared to theirs. But as far as adding anything, no. No "economic benefit" at all.
