Profitable Selling Tips: Energy Efficiency

Roanoke Real Estate Podcast with Damon Gettier

It’s time to continue our series on selling your house faster and for more money. For the fourth installment, we’re going to focus on making your home more energy efficient. There are plenty of things you can do in order to accomplish this. Replacing your current light bulbs with LED bulbs is a good place to start. Replacing your water heater isn’t a bad idea either. An instant hot water heater will heat hot water only when you need it, not all day long. Energy-efficient windows are a good idea as well. “Energy-efficient windows are a great idea.” Finally, a programmable thermostat is a must. You can use it to make sure the home is heated or cooled when you need it, not 24/7. Due to their lower costs of operation and their generally longer lifespans, energy-efficient appliances like these will increase the appeal of your home in a potential buyer’s eyes. If you have any questions for me about how you can make your home more energy efficient, don’t hesitate to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
