Upgrading your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows can increase the asking price 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.
In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to figure out : What’s the return on energy savings if you sell your home? Below is what we uncovered in Johnstown:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Johnstown, your home value could increase by between $901.89 and $1199.52 for a mid-tier or top-tier Johnstown home respectively. Compare this to, the same upgrade 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. Johnstown homeowners may see an estimated home value gain of between $2462.53 for mid-tier homes and $3275.16 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2260 and $3005.8 in Buffalo.
Put differently, a window upgrade in Johnstown can add between 0.61% percent and 2.22 % percent to the value 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 Johnstown homeowner is quite strong.
The variation between the range for Johnstown and Buffalo, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.59% percent and 0.78% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, notably; the 0.41% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ likelihood to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Gloversville region, and heating & cooling price differences between Johnstown and Buffalo.
