Energy Star Helps Sell Houses
Energy efficiency, comfort and lower utility bills are important factors for today's home buyers. Hundreds of builders in the Southeast are already building Energy Star homes to meet this demand - and we can help you get on the Energy Star path, too.
What is Energy Star?
It's a guarantee to your prospective home buyers that they will have lower utility bills, improved comfort and indoor air quality, and less maintenance over time. What's not to like about that?
Backed by the US EPA, the Energy Star program for New Homes offers a set of standards for incorporating energy efficient construction methods and features that result in at least 15 percent greater energy efficiency compared to typical homes. As one of the most widely recognized brands on the market today, the Energy Star label differentiates homes and shows as a builder you are commited to quality, efficiency and stewardship.
We'll help you find the most cost-effective path to integrating Energy Star features, such as:
- Effective insulation
- High-performance windows
- Tight construction and ducts
- Efficient heating and cooling equipment
- Efficient products
- Third-party verification
