And for accurate figures, you really should discuss it with your real estate broker. But to give you an idea of how much your &lt;a href="http://sammy2448.energy4gre.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=energy70"&gt;solar power &lt;/a&gt;investments appreciate, look at the following scenario&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Suppose you currently own a home with a simple supplemental &lt;a href="http://sammy2448.energy4gre.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=energy70"&gt;solar water heater&lt;/a&gt; installed and it is in good operating condition. Costs vary by region but in my area a solar powered water heater would cost you in the neighborhood of $3,000. You could reasonably expect a monthly savings of around $50 or more. On a new mortgage, $50 per month after tax equates to about $14,000 more you can borrow. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;In regards to appreciation, a homeowner is likely to get 125% of the cost for new equipment or $3,750 based on the $3,000 investment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Based on the numbers below, a simple payback analysis on your &lt;a href="http://sammy2448.energy4gre.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=energy70"&gt;solar water heater &lt;/a&gt;would pay for itself in five (5) years. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;$3,000 divided by $50 = 60 months or 5 years). After that the cost savings is pure profit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#336666;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Not a bad investment and if you do your homework, you can probably enhance these numbers by 10% or more easily. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8931544090444827506-4190832647549873087?l=solar-power-systems-for-homes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://solar-power-systems-for-homes.blogspot.com/feeds/4190832647549873087/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://solar-power-systems-for-homes.blogspot.com/2009/07/appreciation-of-solar-power-systems-for.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8931544090444827506/posts/default/4190832647549873087'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8931544090444827506/posts/default/4190832647549873087'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://solar-power-systems-for-homes.blogspot.com/2009/07/appreciation-of-solar-power-systems-for.html' title='Appreciation of Solar Power Systems for Homes'/><author><name>Sam</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
