Upgrading your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows can increase the value of your home. As mentioned before, windows preserve most of their initial value especially given their long life expectancy. At a rate of 72.3% estimated for 2020 an average total window replacement job costing $17,925 would preserve $13,018 of its initial value.
Moreover, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to estimate : What’s the ROI on energy savings when selling the house? Below is what we found in Dover:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Dover, your home value could increase by between $1057.23 and $1547.09 for a mid-tier or top-tier Dover home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Concord 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. Dover homeowners could see an estimated home value gain of between $3001.27 for mid-tier homes and $4391.86 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2832 and $4144.16 in Concord.
Another way to look at it, a window upgrade in Dover can add anywhere from 0.33% percent and 1.37 % percent to the asking price of your home via 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 Dover homeowner is relatively strong.
The variation between the range for Dover and Concord, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.32% percent and 0.47% percent respectively, is derived from a number of factors, primarily; the 0.27% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ propensity to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the Boston-Cambridge-Newton region, and energy cost differences between Dover and Concord.
The data presented is based on EnergyStar, the NREL,Department of Energy and extensive research performed by the NAHB. Dover home value data is provided by Zillow.
