Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may add to the asking 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 find out : What’s the premium for energy savings when it comes time to sell? Here is what we estimated in Altmar:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Altmar, your home value could increase by between $853.2 and $1134.75 for a mid-tier or top-tier Altmar home respectively. For comparison, the same replacement in Buffalo may get you somewhere between $870 and $1157.1.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Altmar homeowners could see an estimated home value increase of between $2153.3 for mid-tier homes and $2863.89 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2260 and $3005.8 in Buffalo.
