Upgrading 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.
Moreover, many buyers are willing to pay a premium for energy savings. Here we try to figure out : What’s the premium for energy savings when selling the house? The following is what we uncovered in Yardley:
Basic Dual-Pane to National Vinyl
If you already have dual-pane windows (non-EnergyStar rated), in Yardley, your home value could increase by between $749.32 and $1096.51 for a mid-tier or top-tier Yardley home respectively. Compare this to, the same upgrade in Philadelphia could add somewhere between $696 and $1018.48.
Single-Pane to National Vinyl
When upgrading from low-efficiency single-pane windows, the potential is even greater. Yardley homeowners may yield an estimated home value gain of between $2094.35 for mid-tier homes and $3064.74 for the top tier. Compare this to between $1764 and $2581.32 in Philadelphia.
Put differently, a window upgrade in Yardley can add between 0.22% percent and 0.9 % percent to the sale price of your home through the energy efficiency premium buyers have shown a willingness to pay. Combined with the aforementioned +72.3% retained upfront worth of your windows, and National Vinyl’s lifetime warranty, the value proposition for a Yardley homeowner is relatively clear.
The variation between the range for Yardley and Philadelphia, which for reference, would yield a potential premium range of 0.2% percent and 0.3% percent respectively, can be estimated from a number of factors, principally; the 0.85% percent difference in median home prices, a buyers’ likelihood to pay more for energy savings at a given price point in the Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington region, and energy cost differences between Yardley and Philadelphia.
