Switching your windows to EnergyStar rated National Vinyl windows can increase the value 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 answer the question : What’s the premium for energy savings if you sell your home? The following is what we estimated in Trumbull:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Trumbull, your home value could increase by between $1243.75 and $1820.02 for a mid-tier or top-tier Trumbull home respectively. For comparison, the same upgrade in Hartford could yield somewhere between $1032 and $1510.16.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Trumbull homeowners could yield an estimated home value gain of between $3955.11 for mid-tier homes and $5787.65 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2634 and $3854.42 in Hartford.
Put differently, a window upgrade in Trumbull can add between 0.33% percent and 1.53 % percent to the sale price 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 value of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Trumbull homeowner is relatively strong.
The variation between the range for Trumbull and Hartford, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.27% percent and 0.4% percent respectively, may come from a number of factors, notably; the 2.28% 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 Trumbull and Hartford.
