Value You Can Measure
Stamford property owners have plenty excellent reasons to upgrade their windows. Fixing damaged windows, improving the design of your home etc… Many such values can be quantified quite explicitly.
To begin with, windows maintain about 72.3 percent of their initial purchase value in New England according to the Remodeling 2020 Cost vs. Value Report. This sets windows among the top 5 home improvement investments in terms of value retention.
As for energy savings, homes in Stamford, can expect to notice important decreases on weekly spending for electricity. If you already have dual pane windows you may save about $220.7 compared to $172 in Hartford.

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.
In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to answer the question : What’s the return on energy savings if you sell your home? Below is what we estimated in Stamford:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Stamford, your home value could increase by between $1324.21 and $1937.76 for a mid-tier or top-tier Stamford home respectively. Compare this to, the same upgrade in Hartford may get you somewhere between $1032 and $1510.16.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Stamford homeowners could yield an estimated home value gain of between $4457.11 for mid-tier homes and $6522.23 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2634 and $3854.42 in Hartford.
In other words, a window upgrade in Stamford can add between 0.28% percent and 1.37 % 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 Stamford homeowner is relatively clear.
The variation between the range for Stamford and Hartford, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.22% percent and 0.32% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, particularly; the 3.15% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ likelihood to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk region, and energy price differences between Stamford and Hartford.
