Energy Efficient and Affordable

Marketplace aired a segment this last week on a new energy-efficient home for $100,000 in Philadelphia.

I think this is an exciting development! Many of the super energy efficient homes we've seen to date have been at much higher price levels.

So, would you find a 1000 square foot, energy efficient (energy bills 50% below average for this size home) home in an urban setting attractive? Let's say the home is in DC instead of Philadelphia. Are you tempted? How about in Charlottesville?

I'm a realtor based in Fremont, CA and I want to see Obama, pass legislation to require greater efficiency of all new homes built and self -sufficiency in energy consumption. We need to move all fronts towards a greener pasture.

An energy efficient home can really help save on the bills later on. This will allow you a bigger budget for the actual mortgage.
