Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may increase the sale price of your home. As mentioned before, windows preserve most of their initial value especially given their long life expectancy.

Moreover, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to uncover : What’s the return on energy savings when it comes time to sell? The following is what we estimated in Buchanan:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Buchanan, your home value could increase by between $1289.94 and $1887.62 for a mid-tier or top-tier Buchanan home respectively. For comparison, the same replacement in Buffalo could yield somewhere between $1044 and $1527.72.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Buchanan homeowners could expect an estimated home value increase of between $4273.72 for mid-tier homes and $6253.87 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2712 and $3968.56 in Buffalo.
Another way to look at it, a window upgrade in Buchanan can add anywhere from 0.34% percent and 1.65 % percent to the asking price of your home by way of the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Combined with the aforementioned +72.3% retained initial value of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Buchanan homeowner is relatively clear.
The variation between the range for Buchanan and Buffalo, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.28% percent and 0.4% percent respectively, is dependent on a number of factors, particularly; the 2.62% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ willingness to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the New York-Newark-Jersey City region, and heating & cooling price differences between Buchanan and Buffalo.
