Home Value Rises When Going Green

If you’ve always been on the fence about “going green” for your home – the statistics prove it: the upgrade is worth it in the long run.

According to Porch.com, homes with solar panels list 56% above the average home price. Just how much more, you ask? Well, solar paneled homes cost an average of $680,000 – about 48% more than the average home in the area.

Obviously, the states that are better friends with the sun turn a higher profit than those who don’t. The study found that the top 25 cities with the priciest homes with solar are in California.

Home buyers are searching for homes that are environmentally friendly, while also helping them save on energy bills in the long-run. And if it boosts your home value, why not? Stop by Pacific Alliance Title’s blog for more!
