Replacing your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows may increase 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 energy savings when it comes time to sell? What follows is what we estimated in Port Chester:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Port Chester, your home value could increase by around $2530.87 and $3529.32 for a mid-tier or top-tier Port Chester home respectively. Compare this to, the same replacement in Buffalo may get you somewhere between $1837.44 and $2562.32.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Port Chester homeowners may expect an estimated home value gain of between $9176.36 for mid-tier homes and $12796.51 for the top tier. Compare this to between $4773.12 and $6656.15 in Buffalo.
Put differently, a window upgrade in Port Chester can add anywhere from 0.46% percent and 2.35 % percent to the value of your home through the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Add to this the aforementioned +72.3% retained upfront worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Port Chester homeowner is quite clear.
The variation between the range for Port Chester and Buffalo, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.34% percent and 0.47% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, particularly; the 4.19% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ propensity to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the New York-Newark-Jersey City region, and energy price differences between Port Chester and Buffalo.
