Sellers: Hawaii Homebuyers Are Looking For Green Options

Sellers…are you thinking of selling soon? Most of my Buyers are looking for green options. The most popular questions I get when showing buyers homes here in Oahu are:

  • Does this home have solar panels (PV) for photovoltaic solar panels?
  • Are the windows old or new?
  • How old are the appliances, are they energy savers?

Some Highlights

  • 11% of new homebuyers stated “energy efficient features” as the reason for their purchase
  • The most popular remodeling projects done for energy efficiency were insulation upgrades, HVAC replacements, and vinyl & wood window installations
  • Research shows that word preference does make a difference when it comes to attracting “green buyers”
