When it comes to buying a home, you want something affordable, comfortable, and eco-friendly. That’s exactly what you get with Balwin Properties’ EDGE Advanced Certified homes. EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) is a global green building certification focusing on energy efficiency, water conservation, and sustainable materials. Our EDGE Advanced Certified homes meet the highest sustainability standards, offering you financial savings, eco-friendly living, and a more comfortable home.
5 Key Benefits of EDGE Advanced Certification for Home buyers
1. Save Money with Energy-Efficient Homes
One of the biggest advantages of owning an EDGE Advanced Certified apartment is the potential for significant savings. Balwin Properties offers green bonds through Balwin Mortgages, which provide a 0.25% reduction on your home loan interest rate. Over the next 20 years, this could mean savings of around R 76,000* compared to a traditional home. An energy-efficient home helps you save money while reducing your financial stress. It's a win for your wallet and the planet!
2. Increase Your Home’s Long-Term Value
Sustainable homes are becoming increasingly sought after, and EDGE Advanced Certified homes are no exception. These eco-friendly homes not only maintain their value, but can even increase in worth as demand for sustainable living spaces continue to rise. By choosing an EDGE home, you're making a smart investment that pays off in both the short and long term.
3. Enjoy a Healthier, More Comfortable Living Space
At Balwin Properties, we believe your home should be a sanctuary—comfortable and healthy. Our EDGE Advanced Certified apartments are designed to enhance your indoor environment with improved insulation, advanced ventilation systems, and eco-friendly materials. These features not only create a more comfortable living space but also improve indoor air quality, contributing to a healthier lifestyle for you and your family.
4. Contribute to a Greener Future
With an EDGE Advanced Certified home, you’re actively helping reduce your carbon footprint. These homes are built with sustainability in mind, using energy-efficient features and water-saving technologies that minimise their environmental impact. Choosing a certified home means you’re part of the global movement towards a more sustainable future—without sacrificing style or comfort.
5. Lower Utility Bills for Ongoing Savings
Utility bills can be a significant monthly expense, but with an EDGE Advanced Certified home you’ll see a noticeable reduction in your electricity and water usage.
