    Don’t Overbuild – In addition to the initial building cost, extra space also requires maintenance. It is wasteful for you and the environment if you really don’t need the room.

    Spend on High-Efficiency Appliances – While high-efficiency appliances cost a little more, you will easily recoup your investment in as little as 18 months with a decrease in your utility bills. In addition, they waste less water and other natural resources.

    Insulate Properly – This tip does not just refer to the insulation in your walls and ceiling, although they are quite important. Also be sure to use energy-efficient windows and doors, and properly seal them.
