Are you thinking of selling your multi-family property in the near future? You may not think that now is the time to make major improvements, but you could be wrong. Adjusting certain features – like the carbon footprint – of your properties can make them more attractive to potential buyers … and more valuable as well. Green has gone mainstream Years ago, ecologically-sustainable design was considered something “extra,” like a perk. But those days are long gone. Now, buyers expect their properties to come with green features. They know that it’s not only better for the environment, but will save them on energy costs in the long run. Become an investor’s dream Investors looking to buy real estate are well-aware of today’s eco-conscious renters. When they look at properties, they want to see all the upgrades that will have potential tenants fighting to get in the door. Make sure to highlight the environmentally-friendly features of your properties in order to get the biggest bang for your buck. Save money while you wait Not thinking of selling your properties for a few years? No problem. Green upgrades can still save you money while you wait. Not only will they make your assets look better to buyers later, but your energy costs will be lower while you wait for those offers to flood in.
