Case Study: Leveraging EPS As A Sales Tool

Legend Homes — Thu, 10 May 2012 16:57:56 +0000

Your customers are looking for value when choosing a newly built home. Beyond wanting quality at an affordable price, today’s savvy shopper is asking, “What will this house cost me to operate over time?” Home energy costs are the largest operating expense after property taxes, according to the National Association of Home Builders.

ENERGY PERFORMANCE SCORE

EPS is a tool that helps buyers assess a home’s energy consumption, costs and carbon footprint. The score can be applied to certified homes and can be paired with other home energy labels such as LEED® for Homes, Earth Advantage® and ENERGY STAR®.

To answer the call for low operating costs and long-term value, many builders are constructing new homes with a range of energy-efficient building practices and features. Energy Trust of Oregon’s Energy Performance Score helps trade ally builders frame the value of the energy-efficient features they include in their homes. The EPS—which estimates a home’s energy consumption, energy costs and carbon footprint—is based on many factors, such as the home’s size, insulation level, air leakage, heating and cooling systems, major appliances, lighting and water heating. To determine the score, a third-party verifier analyzes a home’s features and construction techniques, including testing air leakage.

Today, builders across Oregon increasingly use EPS as a marketing tool to distinguish their high-efficiency homes from other homes on the market. Real estate professionals rely on it as a simple way to show buyers a home’s estimated operating costs. And buyers appreciate the peace of mind that comes with a home that is tested and verified to perform.

Portland Makes Improving Housing Markets List for Third Month in Row

Legend Homes — Sat, 07 Apr 2012 00:30:15 +0000

For the third month in a row, Portland made the NAHB/First American Improving Markets Index. Overall, the list grew to include 101 markets, with 35 states having at least one market on the list. Oregon has two markets – Portland and Corvallis.

The index identifies metropolitan areas that have shown improvement from their respective troughs in housing permits, employment and house prices for at least six consecutive months.

“The April IMI indicates that Portland continues to show measurable and consistent signs that things are headed in the right direction for housing,” said HBAMP 2012 President, Gordon Root. “This positive news is in line with what our builder members have observed regarding firming conditions and improved buyer interest.”

“The fact that the number and geographic distribution of improving housing markets continued to expand beyond the 100 mark in April bodes well for the start of the spring home buying season, and should be an encouraging sign for those who are considering a home purchase,” added Kurt Pfotenhauer, vice chairman of First American Title Insurance Company.

The IMI is designed to track housing markets throughout the country that are showing signs of improving economic health. The index measures three sets of independent monthly data to get a mark on the top improving Metropolitan Statistical Areas. The three indicators that are analyzed are employment growth from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, house price appreciation from Freddie Mac, and single-family housing permit growth from the U.S. Census Bureau. NAHB uses the latest available data from these sources to generate a list of improving markets. A metropolitan area must see improvement in all three areas for at least six months following their respective troughs before being included on the improving markets list.
