    Extractions: Energy THE ENERGY EFFICIENT MORTGAGE MEANS COMFORT AND SAVINGS When you are buying, selling, refinancing, or remodeling your home, you can increase your comfort and actually save money by using the Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM). It is easy to use, federally recognized, and can be applied to most home mortgages. EEMs provide the borrower with special benefits when purchasing a home that is energy efficient, or can be made efficient through the installation of energy-saving improvements. Home owners with lower utility bills have more money in their pocket each month. They can afford to allocate a larger portion of their income to housing expenses. If you have more cash, why not buy a better, more comfortable home? There are two options with the Energy Efficient Mortgage. WHO BENEFITS FROM THE ENERGY EFFICIENT MORTGAGE?

To view illustrations, you can download the PDF version ( PDF 163 KB ) of this fact sheet ( Download Acrobat Reader ). See Related Links below for more publications on related topics, which aren't included in the PDF version. It's easier than you may think to enjoy the savings and comfort of an energy-efficient home. Since an energy-efficient home is cost-effective, there are financing programs available from mortgages to home improvement loans, which allow more people the opportunity to live in such a home. You can benefit from energy-efficient financing whether you're buying, selling, refinancing, or remodeling a home. If you're looking to buy an energy-efficient home, you can qualify for a better, more comfortable home because with lower utility costs, you can afford a slightly larger mortgage payment. You can also obtain financing to make energy-efficient improvements to an older home before moving in or to your existing home. And if you put your home on the market, you can use its energy efficiency as an attractive selling point. Home Energy Rating Most energy-efficient financing programs will encourage you to have an energy rating for your new or existing home, which will tell you and the lender how energy efficient it is. A rating typically involves an inspection by a professional energy rater who is certified under a nationally or state accredited home energy rating system (HERS). There are several options regarding HERS, so the type of HERS used will depend on where you live. Some states even have more than one HERS. Some of the organizations listed at the end of this fact sheet may be able to provide you with more information regarding HERS in your state. Here's an example of a

    Extractions: FOR EVERY $1 you save on your annual fuel bill, your home value will jump by $20 or more. That doesn't mean you can simply set back the thermostat or stop heating your home to boost its value. You must actually reduce your home's fuel requirements, say, by completing energy-efficient home improvements. Once you do, increased home value could be yours. That's the findings of two little-known, government financed, private research efforts completed in the late 1990s, which are just now attracting interest, thanks to the nation's growing energy problems. "Nobody was interested in the 1990s, but I'm certainly getting calls now. It should reassure people about making investments in energy efficiency and particularly the Energy Star program which is the nationwide GoodHousekeeping stamp-of-approval for energy efficiency that people will recognize," said Rick Nevin, vice president of ICF Consulting, the Fairfax, VA-based international consulting firm that conducted the research with funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. News of the research efforts couldn't come at a better time.

A professional auditor uses a variety of techniques and equipment to determine the energy efficiency of a structure. Thorough audits often use equipment such as blower doors, which measure the extent of leaks in the building envelope, as well as infrared cameras, which reveal hard-to-detect areas of air infiltration and missing insulation. The following is a discussion of do-it-yourself as well as professional audits. You can easily conduct a home energy audit yourself. With a simple, but diligent, "walk-through," you can spot many problems in any type of house. When auditing your home, keep a checklist of areas you have inspected and problems found. This will help you prioritize your energy efficiency upgrades.
