Over half (59%) of those aged 55 years and over, agree that making green changes will add value to their home. Jonathan Stinton, head of intermediary relationships at Coventry for intermediaries said: “Energy efficient home improvements don’t just give people a way to reduce their energy bills today, they also provide a chance to future-proof properties for tomorrow’s market."

In a housing market where sustainability is becoming a major selling point, offering something as concrete and innovative as a 10-year zero bills guarantee helps this housebuilder stand out in a meaningful way. Homebuyers are increasingly focused on future-proofing their homes against rising energy costs and evolving regulations. The promise of zero energy bills aligns perfectly with this trend, making energy efficiency a clear, measurable improvement to a homeowner’s lifestyle, rather than an abstract concept. We’ve seen time and again that messaging which emphasises personal comfort and practical benefits resonates far more with homeowners than abstract environmental goals. This bold move from the housebuilder not only differentiates them but offers real value to today’s savvy, sustainability-conscious homebuyers. What do you think? Could this type of guarantee be the next big trend in the housing market? https://lnkd.in/ehF6JQvC #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #HousingMarket #ZeroBills #FutureProofHomes #StrategicCommunications

As we’ve seen in our work, it’s messaging around comfort and practical benefits that really connects with homeowners, far more than abstract environmental goals. Could this be the next big trend for the housing market?
