TORONTO, March 25 /CNW/
- According to the 16th Annual RBC Homeownership Study, almost all (95 per cent) Canadians said that low energy consumption is an important consideration when buying a home. Energy efficiency is rated just as important as the look and appearance of the home, cited by 94 per cent.
"Our study indicates that low mortgage rates and favourable housing prices are definitely influencing buying intentions this year," said Karen Leggett, head, Home Equity Financing, RBC Royal Bank. "But in today's economy, we're also seeing that many Canadians are increasingly mindful of longer term home features that will reduce their monthly energy costs."An overwhelming 93 per cent of those planning to buy a home in the next two years are in favour of having a standardized energy rating available for all homes and three-quarters (77 per cent) also believe that environment friendly features are important factors to be considered when buying a home.
