As mentioned before, windows preserve most of their initial value especially given their long life expectancy.

In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to evaluate : What’s the premium for energy savings when it comes time to sell? The following is what we found in Philmont:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl

Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Philmont homeowners may expect an estimated home value increase of between $3048.45 for mid-tier homes and $4460.9 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2712 and $3968.56 in Buffalo.

The variation between the range for Philmont and Buffalo, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.64% percent and 0.93% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, primarily; the 0.56% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ propensity to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the Hudson region, and heating & cooling cost differences between Philmont and Buffalo.
