Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows could add to 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.
In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to uncover : What’s the premium for energy savings on the market? The following is what we found in Rutland:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Rutland, your home value could increase by around $653.43 and $956.18 for a mid-tier or top-tier Rutland home respectively. Compare this to, the same upgrade in Boston could add somewhere between $684 and $1000.92.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Rutland homeowners may see an estimated home value gain of between $1838.48 for mid-tier homes and $2690.31 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2064 and $3020.32 in Boston.
Put differently, a window investment in Rutland can add anywhere from 0.2% percent and 0.84 % percent to the value of your home by way of 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 Rutland homeowner is quite clear.
The variation between the range for Rutland and Boston, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.21% percent and 0.31% percent respectively, is derived from a number of factors, especially; the -0.5% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ willingness to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Worcester region, and heating & cooling price differences between Rutland and Boston.
