[lme-module module=”market-stats” city=”Plattekill” state=”NY”]
Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may 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.
In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to estimate : What’s the return on investment on energy savings on the market? What follows is what we found in Plattekill:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Plattekill, your home value could increase by between $1187.91 and $1738.31 for a mid-tier or top-tier Plattekill home respectively. For comparison, the same replacement in Buffalo may get you somewhere between $1044 and $1527.72.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Plattekill homeowners may yield an estimated home value increase of between $3625.82 for mid-tier homes and $5305.78 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2712 and $3968.56 in Buffalo.
Put differently, a window upgrade in Plattekill can add between 0.45% percent and 2 % percent to the asking price of your home via the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Add to this the aforementioned +72.3% retained initial value of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Plattekill homeowner is relatively strong.
The variation between the range for Plattekill and Buffalo, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.39% percent and 0.58% percent respectively, is dependent on a number of factors, principally; the 1.53% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ likelihood to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Kingston region, and energy cost differences between Plattekill and Buffalo.
