Sales proposition #1 Sell the sizzle and not the steak. Start with our GoNetZero energy audit, then add the cost of the recomended energy efficient features to the asking price, and include financing options.
Later, if you have to reduce the price, the buyer will feel you are helping
to pay for the upgrades, making each dollar received in a counter offer more valuable to the buyer.

Sales proposition #2
Create an additional profit. Make the suggested upgrades yourself with available rebates and a green loans, then pay off that loan with your sale proceeds. Statistics show that Eco-Friendly homes sell faster and for more money, so you could create extra profit

Studies show that HERS index score, LEED certification, Energy Star certification carry a lot of weight with buyers. A GREEN POINT CERTIFIED home can sell for an additional 4% to 9% over the comeptition, and you will be living in a more comfortable, healthful environment. Even if you choose not to get certified, your home may already have Green Features, which will increase your home's value.
