|Chester County Homes Going Green?
January 23rd, 2009 categories: A Realtors Life, Chester County, Market Trends
The US Green Building Council
Here in Chester County and the Main Line area I’m reminded of the “trend” towards “going green” in home design and new construction. Right after the financial crises, it’s one of the hottest real estate topics of our time. The US Green Building Council has developed the Leeds Guidelines for homes and construction planning on “going green”. Public Buildings and Municipal Buildings are trending to going Green. Several local Builders are picking up the trend as well.
Kermit The Frog sang the song, “It’s Not Easy Being Green” in another context. But as we look around our local landscape, we’re curious about how easy it is to find environmentally friendly Green Home Design here in Chester County and the Philadelphia Main Line Area. It’s definitely getting easier to be environmentally conscious with new home construction. Many builders advertise that they follow green building design and construction. Be sure to ask.

Home Improvement Chester County Philadelphia Main Line Area
The phrase that “All Real Estate Is Local” contains a lot of truth in Real Estate and especially for our Pennsylvania, Chester County Real Estate and Philadelphia Main Line area. We have a varied mix of home styles and home price ranges sometimes within neighborhoods.
Each year Realtor Magazine together with Remodeling Magazine* publishes their Cost vs Value edition with statistics on resale value investment return. These are Regional differences but It’s also true that Chester County may differ from Delaware or Montgomery County or style differences between Single Family Homes or Town Homes.
Good Lighting Deserves More Home Improvement Attention
My clients seem to be most impressed with Kitchens and Bathrooms and often comment on Lighting. Lighting isn’t on the list but in my experience it should be. When a home buyer says, “It seems dark in here”, it’s not good news for the Sellers home I’m showing. Especially here in the Northeast. Good lighting can punch up the WOW factor for a modest investment!
