What is the impact of a home's energy efficiency on value?
Energy-efficient features like solar panels, Energy Star appliances, double-pane windows, and upgraded insulation can increase home value by lowering utility costs for buyers. Studies show homes with green certifications or owned solar panels sell for a premium. The value increase depends on the local market and whether the features are owned or leased. Energy efficiency is increasingly important to today's buyers.
Why It Matters
Energy-efficient homes appeal to cost-conscious and environmentally aware buyers, giving your home a competitive edge at resale.
