YOUR HOME ENERGY SAVING INITIATIVE PAVES THE WAY FOR SUSTAINABLE REAL ESTATE

September 29th,2021

Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) has welcomed the Morrison Government’s, new edition of the Your Home initiative that will assist Australians in improving the energy efficiency of their homes, reduce their carbon footprint and save on energy costs released today (28 September 2021).

REIA President, Adrian Kelly said, the initiative will provide free resources that will help new home owners to build an energy efficient house.

“Your Home provides Australians with a guide to designing and building energy efficient, sustainable homes that use less energy, are cheaper to run and comfortable to live in.

“Most people are placing sustainability higher on their list of requirements for property and this in turn sees these properties sell at a premium.

“Additionally, sustainable options such as solar panels, are now becoming more affordable and thus an option for most consumers so there will be more demand for energy efficient and low environmental impact homes,” he said.
