Did you know that 48% of homeowners say they would be willing to spend $2500 or more to make green improvments that would appeal to potential buyers, while one in 3 homewoners say they would be willing to spend $5000 or more on improvements?
Fifty-one percent believe it's important to work with a GREEN-certified real estate agent, like Mary Maxie, who can help them identify and market eco-friendly properties. This would include knowledge of housing materials and construction, energy-efficient appliances and HVAC systems and the impact of landscaping on a home's environmental footprint.
The survey also found that cost is the greatest deterrent to going green, cited by 36% of respondents. Other hurdles include convenience (22%), lack of knowledge about implementation (18%) and lack of time (17%).
Mary recently completed an intensive GREEN course sponsored by National Associoation of Realtors, and can help you decide which improvements to make to save you money and keep your family and the earth healthy.
