Does loft insulation & cavity wall insulation add to the value of your home?

Question

If they do, do you know by about how much the value would be increased? If your in this area of work, or can speak from personal experience that would be great! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

it will increase the value about the same amount you will spend on the insulation ..so don't go mad with the spending ..its a bit like bathrooms and kitchens ..you don't increase the value as much as you spend ..i should know ..ive been a builder for over forty years  

Answer 2

Money wise it about the same as you send, but it helps to sale the house , people like to know that it's in there to help save them money on there heating & cooling .  

Answer 3

Lower electric bills will be a great draw to selling your home.  People love a well-insulated home and will probably be willing to pay more for it.

Answer 4

Yes it will increase the value of your home. Depending on your market in that area it may benefit the seller in 2 ways, value and appeal. On the other hand it may just be an offset cost that will not be of profit to you, however insulating is always a great selling point. Good Luck!
