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? This is what we uncovered in Elmwood Park:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Elmwood Park, your home value could increase by around $729.69 and $1067.78 for a mid-tier or top-tier Elmwood Park home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Atlantic City could add somewhere between $600 and $878.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Elmwood Park homeowners may yield an estimated home value increase of between $2512.62 for mid-tier homes and $3676.8 for the top tier. Compare this to between $1644 and $2405.72 in Atlantic City.
