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.

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 when selling the house? This is what we uncovered in Winchendon:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Winchendon, your home value could increase by between $645.11 and $944.01 for a mid-tier or top-tier Winchendon home respectively. Compare this to, the same replacement in Boston could yield somewhere between $684 and $1000.92.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Winchendon homeowners could expect an estimated home value gain of between $1777.15 for mid-tier homes and $2600.56 for the top tier. Compare this to between $2064 and $3020.32 in Boston.
Put differently, a window investment in Winchendon can add anywhere from 0.28% percent and 1.11 % percent to the asking price of your home through the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Add to this the aforementioned +72.3% retained initial worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Winchendon homeowner is relatively clear.
The variation between the range for Winchendon and Boston, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.29% percent and 0.43% percent respectively, can be estimated from a number of factors, especially; the -0.63% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ likelihood to pay more for energy savings at a given price range in the Worcester region, and heating & cooling cost differences between Winchendon and Boston.
