All-Electric Living Is the Future
Today’s smart buyers are actively seeking properties that are all-electric. Why? Because they save money, reduce carbon emissions, and future-proof their homes against rising energy costs.
- No gas connection means lower installation costs
- Induction cooktops are safer, faster, and cleaner
- Buildings powered by green energy offer real long-term savings
Energy Efficiency = Lower Bills
A property’s NatHERS rating tells you how energy-efficient the home is. Higher ratings mean more comfort and lower running costs.
- Every new home must meet a minimum of 7 stars
- Some leading developments now average 8.2 stars
- Ask for the NatHERS report to compare homes properly
Passive Design Matters
Passive design is a game changer. It makes homes naturally comfortable all year round by reducing the need for air conditioning.
- Maximises natural light and airflow
- Uses window orientation and shading to regulate temperature
- Results in healthier indoor environments with lower energy use
Material Choices Impact Health and Planet
Buyers are now asking what materials go into their homes — and they should. Sustainable buildings avoid toxic materials and reduce waste.
- Look for sustainably sourced or recycled materials
- Avoid greenwash features like unnecessary cladding
- Stainless steel benches and cork flooring offer long-term benefits
Smart Location = Sustainable Lifestyle
It’s not just about the building. It’s also about where you live. Location directly affects how you get around and how much energy you use.
- Prioritise walkability and access to public transport
- Check if it’s part of a Transit Oriented Development (TOD)
- Proximity to shops, schools and parks improves livability
The Rise of Green Mortgages
Finance is catching up with sustainability. Some banks now offer green loans and incentives for energy-efficient homes.
- Ask your broker about green home loan options
- Some lenders offer discounts for homes with 7+ star ratings
- You may be eligible for rebates when retrofitting your property
