Hello Marco,
The October 1998 issue of the Appraisal Journal reported that the market
value of a home increases $20 for every $1 decrease in Annual Utility Cost.
The follow-up article in the October 1999 issue of Appraisal Journal,
reinforces the first report.

Also Remodeling magazine does an annual value chart
http://www.remodeling.hw.net/search.aspx?query=value
...and a blatant plug for the 3rd edition of The New Solar Electric Home,
see pages 120-122.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] PV and home value
Can anyone point me to any documentation out there as what installing a PV
system on a home does for its resale value? I mean, I would think that it
would certainly add to it, but would like to see some research backing
that
up.
Thanks,
marco
