Energy-efficiency could be within your means!
You don’t need a million dollars to buy an energy-efficient home in La Plata County – in fact, less than half a million will do.
New home construction, particularly in the Three Springs neighborhood, has been booming with affordable, energy-efficient homes.
Max Hutcheson, a broker-associate with the Wells Group of Durango, said the cost of the sustainable features are built in to the price of the homes.
“Seventy-five percent of the homes in Three Springs are priced under $360,000,” Hutcheson said. “As a neighborhood, the goal is to provide an energy-efficient home at a reasonable price.”
One of the energy-efficient homes for sale he showed The Durango Herald on Monday was valued at $324,900.
