Unlock the hidden value of your home
Green is key to open property market door
New research from the Energy Saving Trust reveals that energy efficient homes will be essential to keep the property market moving.
The study reveals that half of UK homeowners believe that homes with greener features are easier to sell in the current market. Over half (53 per cent) of all householders say they would be willing to pay extra for them. Indeed, on average, householders are willing to pay £3,350 more for a 'green' home.
The research forms part of our new Hidden value guide, which details how each of us can add value to our homes by installing a range of energy saving, water conservation and waste reduction measures.
It makes sense, in the current economic climate, to ensure that the running costs of the home you are living in or buying are as low as possible - and, of course, you will be helping to cut down on your carbon dioxide emissions (CO 2 emissions).
Why not download the 'Hidden value guide' today and find out how you can start saving?
