We had all 12 of our windows and all four of our sliding doors tinted when we moved in.
Even with the low-E new windows, we felt a thermal heating of the areas near the windows. We also had glare issues and worried about fabric fading issues over time.
We got quotes and found a wide swing of prices to do the job.
We ended up hiring a father-son team who came in and spent over a 1/2 day installing.
We paid less than $1000 for all.
I may never know if we get a return on investment in relation to reduction of thermal heating, but it has been welcome for reduction of glare and less heat around the windows and door areas. We are also less worried about furniture fading.
If I had to do it again, I would tint the windows and doors.
