Increasing the Market Value of Buildings Through Energy Retrofitting: A Comparison of Actual Retrofit Costs and Perceived Values
This study investigates how energy retrofitting measures contribute to increasing the market value of multi-family residential buildings within the European real estate market. It examines how energy efficiency improvements, driven by EU decarbonization strategies, enhance the actual and perceived value of these properties. The research employs a dual-methodology approach, integrating the Cost Approach to estimate the financial impact of retrofitting with the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) to evaluate consumer willingness-to-pay (WTP) for energy-efficient properties. Two real case studies are considered to evaluate the methodology and how the monetary value of buildings is affected by their energy efficiency. The results revealed that buildings subjected to deep energy retrofitting are more attractive to potential buyers, who are willing to pay a premium of 13.5% over properties in pre-retrofit conditions. This underscores the tangible market value increment attributed to energy efficiency enhancements. This study bridges the gap between the quantifiable costs of energy retrofitting and the market valuation, offering a dual perspective by integrating both actual cost analysis and perceived market value. Moreover, this work highlights the correlation between energy retrofit investments and increased market value in the European real estate sector.
