The green housing market was unobserved by the real estate professionals for too long. Nobody was considering a home from sustainable materials and with solar panels as an interesting option.
At last the things have started to change in recent years and nowadays home sales experts have started to understand the real value of an eco home.
With constant rise of heating and cooling costs people have started to appreciate the benefits of having an energy efficient home. A wider increase in concerns about environmental degradation has also helped to expand greener building considerations.
Misconceptions that the green housing means houses on a trees, made of recycled tires and tin cans, are gone.
Environmentally friendly houses have started to grow around Cyprus and most of them were regular houses, built in accordance to certain green specifications.
There has also been made a move in the direction of green home improvements in existing properties, ultimately making them more attractive for many current buyers. An early research showed that most of the buyers would like to live in a green home, although the majority was unhappy to pay more for this privilege. It is hard to understand the efficiency of the property though many buyers that live in their eco houses will prove how tangible the benefits may be.
So, as developers seek for a way to make new construction more desirable to future home buyers, it will lead to a continuous growth in greener developments.
