Energy saving will increase property value
These days we are all looking for ways to economise and save as much as we can as the cost of living continues to rise. One of the biggest ways of saving money seems to be ignored by the majority of home owners and landlords alike.
A large number of energy supply companies offer large subsidies or grants to make our homes more energy efficient. The majority of homeowners simply just do not take advantage of the generous subsidies that are on offer. In some cases the energy saving measure may even be free so it is worth checking to see if you qualify.
The value of property in the UK is increasing day by day and one of the ways to maximise this increase is to ensure your property energy efficient. It is a fact that an energy efficient house is worth thousands more than a home with little or no efficiency.
Estate agents will tell you energy efficient homes attract much higher prices and this is becoming more evident by the day. One estate agent in Kent commented “The demand for energy efficient properties is increasing every day and we believe this will continue to be the case in the future”.
