Add Eco-Value To Your Home

Are you thinking of selling your home? Maybe you’ve been in your home for years, but now it is too big or too small for your needs.

This often happens once you start to have children – or once they’re all grown up and moved out of home.

It’s only natural to want to get the best price possible for your home. But did you know that an environmentally friendly home is extremely attractive in this day and age, and your home eco-value may bump up the number of potential buyers expressing interest?

Eco friendly products such as rooftop solar panel systems are at the top end of the scale, but even smaller measures can help to make your home more appealing.

Your home’s energy efficient allure

A well-designed and energy efficient home is sure to be a hit with buyers. More  people are becoming environmentally aware and energy efficient features are what many buyers are after these days.

Make sure your home’s eco friendly features are highlighted in your marketing materials if you’re selling with a real estate agent, and if they are touring people through your home then they can point these out.

You can also get a home inspection in order to gain an energy efficiency rating (EER), something that is mandatory in the Australian Capital Territory for sellers to do already. This will rate how efficient your home is, so if you’ve got it, flaunt it! There are plenty of accredited energy assessors and businesses who can help you to do this.

And when you’re looking for your new home, remember to find one with all these features too, so that you can go on to enjoy the continued benefits of the eco-value home energy efficiency.
