Green conscious property purchasing

The trend of conscious property purchasing has emerged and progressed over the last decade. With the Green Building Council inspiring and advocating for green consciousness when it comes to property developments, many developers are opting to follow this innovative route. Ensuring that their developments have little to no negative impacts on the environment, developers like International Housing Solutions have taken to create homes for conscious property purchasers.

What is a conscious property purchaser?
A green conscious property purchaser will ensure that the home they’re looking to purchase is green-rated or EDGE-certified. This means that the home has been constructed around reducing carbon emissions while providing a sustainable and modern lifestyle.

The benefits of purchasing a ‘green’
Two of the greatest benefits of purchasing a green, EDGE-certified home is saving up to 20% on your utility bills and reaping the benefit of potentially gaining a 4 – 10% higher value on the property. These properties are more affordable as development can often be at least 5-10% more cost-effective.

What features can you expect?
A green-rated home provides various energy saving features that help enhance your living spaces. Your home will contain various elements like smart meters, energy saving light fittings and sensors, a solar geyser, dual flush toilet cistern along with low-flow faucets and fixtures while also providing reduced window to wall ratio, insulated roofs. These features work together to create a system that will help your home save electricity and water.

Taking into consideration the various benefits and savings on green homes, this will inevitably be the future of residential property. Mason will be a part of this revolutionary green movement, providing a unique opportunity to homebuyers to make a conscious property purchase.
