[lme-module module=”market-stats” city=”Milton” state=”MA”]
Replacing your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may 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.
Moreover, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to find out : What’s the ROI on energy savings when selling the house? This is what we found in Milton:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Milton, your home value could increase by between $1219.77 and $1700.98 for a mid-tier or top-tier Milton home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Boston could yield somewhere between $1203.84 and $1678.76.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Milton homeowners could see an estimated home value increase of between $3750.16 for mid-tier homes and $5229.62 for the top tier. Compare this to between $3632.64 and $5065.74 in Boston.
In other words, a window upgrade in Milton can add anywhere from 0.17% percent and 0.72 % percent to the sale price 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 value of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Milton homeowner is relatively strong.
The variation between the range for Milton and Boston, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.17% percent and 0.23% percent respectively, can be estimated from a number of factors, especially; the 0.15% 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 heating & cooling price differences between Milton and Boston.
