Make your home more sustainable
Why making things more sustainable can be beneficial
Making your home more sustainable can yield benefits such as lower energy costs, a better energy label, and a higher property value. There are various ways to finance this. You can increase your mortgage, borrow extra with a new mortgage, or apply for subsidies and special schemes (the latter only applies to specific sustainability measures).
Good to know
Making your home more sustainable involves a lot. Here you will find information you can use during this process.
In some cases, you can finance the sustainability upgrades entirely through your mortgage. Sometimes, a combination of your own funds and an additional mortgage is necessary. What suits your situation best depends on your current mortgage and the value of your home.
In many cases, you can borrow extra for energy-saving measures such as insulation, solar panels, or a heat pump. Lenders look at your income and the value of your home when making this decision. Sometimes you may even be allowed to borrow slightly more when you invest in making your home more sustainable.
Sometimes you want to borrow extra money on top of your current mortgage. For example, for a renovation or making your home more sustainable. In doing so, the lender looks at your income, the value of your home, and your existing mortgage.
An energy label indicates how energy-efficient a home is. You can improve your energy label with measures such as roof, floor, and cavity wall insulation, solar panels, and a heat pump. A more energy-efficient home is also attractive for the value of your house and for potential future buyers.
