    The National Association of Home Builders recently conducted a survey asking new home buyers about their views on sustainability. The top sustainable features that buyers are seeking include Energy Star rated appliances, low-E windows, and programmable thermostats. There was also a strong contingent of buyers who desire even more sustainable features including geo-thermal technology, photovoltaic solar panels, and environmentally friendly building materials.

Often times it is easiest to incorporate these features in a new home because you can ensure the infrastructure is present and the home won’t require retrofitting.
