In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to estimate : What’s the premium for energy savings when it comes time to sell? The following is what we estimated in Derby:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Derby, your home value could increase by between $1088.47 and $1592.79 for a mid-tier or top-tier Derby home respectively. For comparison, the same replacement in Hartford could yield somewhere between $1032 and $1510.16.

Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Derby homeowners could expect an estimated home value gain of between $2986.31 for mid-tier homes and $4369.97 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2634 and $3854.42 in Hartford.

Another way to look at it, a window upgrade in Derby can add anywhere from 0.59% percent and 2.36 % percent to the value 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 worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Derby homeowner is quite clear.
The variation between the range for Derby and Hartford, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.56% percent and 0.82% percent respectively, is dependent on a number of factors, notably; the 0.61% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ willingness to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the New Haven-Milford region, and heating & cooling cost differences between Derby and Hartford.
