DENVER (KWGN) On the outside, it may look like just another home for sale, butunlike thousands of others waiting to be sold, it may not have to wait very long.
"64 percent of home buyers out there are looking for homes with some green features," said Brad Sandler, an Eco Broker with Green Door Living, and this one has it all.From radiant-heated bamboo floors, to dual-flush toilets, this is the ultimate 'green' home buyers dream.
"All our agents at Green Door Living are certified eco-brokers, which is a green designation, which means we have extensive knowledge in energy and environmental issues as they relate to real estate."
Green real estate has become red hot.But Sandler said not everyone is looking to buy completely green homes like this one.
"Not all buyers are entirely green, maybe they're not green at all, maybe they are just sick of paying high energy and gas bills and they want better indoor air quality."
Thinking of buying green, well it'll cost you."Generally yes, they are a little more expensive," added Sandler.
On average Sandler said, 10 to 15 percent more than a traditional home."But you're getting it back at such a rapid rate with the cost of energy, and water."
This particular home is listed at more than $750,000."Sometimes it can be simple things like a programmable thermostat or a xeriscaped yard," said Brad.
Not only will a greener house save you money, but Sandler added it will appreciate value more quickly than an average home-typically 10 to 15 percent more.
