Green Word

What is My Green Home Worth ?

The demand for energy efficient features has been growing significantly over the past several years.  Solar panels, EnergyStar appliances and other green features are still relatively new to the market and it is still unclear the value these added features give to buyers, lenders and appraisers.  There is simply a lack of information about the financial benefits of a green home.
