In addition, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to determine : What’s the return on investment on energy savings on the market? The following is what we found in Stoneham:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Stoneham, your home value could increase by between $1191.73 and $1661.87 for a mid-tier or top-tier Stoneham home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Boston may get you somewhere between $1203.84 and $1678.76.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl

The variation between the range for Stoneham and Boston, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.21% percent and 0.3% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, especially; the -0.11% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ willingness to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Boston-Cambridge-Newton region, and heating & cooling price differences between Stoneham and Boston.
