Offering your property on the real estate market is an action that must always give rise to a few menus or large communication. This is a necessity, as buyers will be more inclined to buy a house in good condition, and offering attractive energy performance.
The question is which jobs are the most relevant to sell quickly and well. At a time when everyone is encouraged to act in favor of a less polluted environment, it is normal that the performance of real estate is more and more determining in the decision to buy. Here are all the good reasons to optimize energy performance of his house before selling it.
Green homes are popular
Faced with the consequences of pollution and global warming on human lives, the movement for a cleaner planet is gaining momentum among individuals.
A positive real estate diagnosis, for an optimized sale
Some homes consume energy, and therefore pollute, in addition to being expensive to maintain. Buyers who are more inclined to spend less and pollute less then prefer to turn to housing with energy performance standards.
All sectors including real estate are affected by this awareness, and the various real estate diagnoses which are compulsory for renting or selling include diagnostics to detect thermal strainers. It will then be the DPE, the Energy performance diagnostic. It is performed by a certified diagnostician, and it is valid for a period of 10 years. Thus, if your last real estate diagnosis is older, it will be advisable to redo one. If it falls within the framework of 10 years, but you have had energy optimization work done in your home, it will be preferable to redo a DPE, in order to present more positive and rewarding data to your potential buyers.
Note that the DPE aims to inform the future owner of the energy consumption of the property he plans to acquire on several points: the heating, the cooling system and the production of domestic hot water. It is therefore at this level that you will have to consider energy renovation work!
Energy performance is a real gain on sale
Faced with the obligation to display the energy class of their home in real estate advertisements, sellers can no longer cast doubt on this information with potential buyers. This had a strong impact on the real estate market, since the note displayed in the Energy performance diagnostic now impacts the price at which real estate is offered.
Note that homes rated A and B are 5 to 11% more expensive than those rated D. As soon as a house is rated F or G, its sale price discount can be between 6 and 19% per compared to houses classified D.
The closer the classification of the property is to A, the more sellers can afford to charge a good price, and sell between 14 and 27% more than a house classified D. The sales argument can then be structured around the comfort of the house, the savings that the inhabitants will be able to achieve on their energy bills, and in particular the cost incurred by the seller in the context of the recent energy renovation.
The possibility of being helped during the works
The price of energy retrofitting of goods can reach peaks depending on housing needs. However, this should not constitute an obstacle to carrying out the works, as some of them are the subject of State aid.
By benefiting from these aids, it will be possible to renovate your house at a lower cost. Depending on the nature of the work, this aid may result in a 5,5% VAT reduction, Zero interest loan, or a financial assistance from ANAH.
