Save More Money for Going Green

You may have heard about the tax credit for updating to energy efficient appliances, but did you know that Georgia has a REBATE FUND for residents who replace an existing appliance with a new ENERGY STAR qualified appliance?  The American Recovery and Renvestment Act of 2009 reserved $8,642,490 for Georgia residents, to be given out on a first-come-first served basis.  The program launched on February 12, 2010 and the funds are already down to just under $8,000,000. 

Improves the Value of Your Home at Resale

One of the reasons I recommend that my Sellers look into this program is that keeping your home's appliances current and in top-working order always translates into a higher sales price.  Energy efficient homes sell for as much as 10% higher on average, and phasing out those "old energy hogs" will improve your home's overall energy efficiency rating.  Plus, you'll personally benefit from having lower energy bills, and we can all feel better about making a real effort to have a positive impact on our environment.
