We recently stumbled upon a great post over on the CertainTeed Blog- “Will Homebuyers Pay More for Green?” The article deals with the changing impact of the economy and housing market on green building trends.
According to the post, fewer people are willing to pay more for green home improvements these days based on purely environmental reasoning. However, more people are actually willing to pay more if those environmental reasons are backed up with hard and fast benefits to the consumer.
In days gone by, homeowners usually made their purchasing decisions based on the “up-front cost factor,” but now people are starting to realize that a larger up-front cost can pay off hugely in the long run when it comes to durability and sustainability.
At Bordner, we make it a point to provide our customers with the product knowledge they need to make the right choices for their homes.
