Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows could add to the sale 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 ascertain : What’s the return on investment on energy savings when selling the house? This is what we discovered in Pittsford:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Pittsford, your home value could increase by around $1233.47 and $1804.97 for a mid-tier or top-tier Pittsford home respectively. For comparison, the same replacement in Burlington may get you somewhere between $1182 and $1729.66.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Pittsford homeowners may yield an estimated home value gain of between $3671.15 for mid-tier homes and $5372.12 for the top tier. Compare this to between $3318 and $4855.34 in Burlington.
In other words, a window upgrade in Pittsford can add anywhere from 0.69% percent and 3.01 % percent to the sale price of your home via the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Combined with the aforementioned +72.3% retained upfront worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Pittsford homeowner is quite strong.
The variation between the range for Pittsford and Burlington, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.66% percent and 0.97% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, notably; the 0.48% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ willingness to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the Rutland region, and heating & cooling cost differences between Pittsford and Burlington.
