Tony Nunes Coldwell Banker Holman Premier Realty 541-840-0342 [email protected] Tony Nunes has lived in Klamath Falls for 27 years. Tony joined Coldwell Banker HPR in June 2012 and recently completed Advanced Real Estate Training in Fort Collins, Colorado. “I like using advanced marketing, tools and techniques to sell a clients home. It is a must for today’s computersavvy buyer. The same data is useful for anyone buying a home or listing a home. I have studied generational marketing since 2006, and I understand why Klamath Falls has a bright real estate future. Providing clients with market absorption data is more important than providing market comparisons, but I do both.” Tony is currently active with Klamath County Association of Realtors and serves on the Government Affairs Committee, Grievance Committee and is the chairman for the Keno Water Company Board. Tony has been married for 39 years to Becky, and has four awesome children and nine grandchildren. He is also Real Estate Licensed in Mexico and has been developing a 700 acre beachfront community on the Sea of Cortez. “I truly respect real estate agents for what they are required to know and the commitment they must make to their profession and clients.” What a buyer wants: Green improvements that cut utility costs (BPT) - Going green is good for the environment, but it can also be good for a homeowner’s wallet – and that’s the aspect of ecofriendly improvements that seems most appealing to homebuyers. More than 80 percent of buyers said they would pay more for home features that saved energy and trimmed utility bills, according to a recent survey by the National Association of Home Builders. While many energy-efficient home improvements do their jobs behind the scenes, an Energy Star-qualified skylight is frontand-center, saving energy and beautifying a home. A skylight appeals to homebuyers’ aesthetic senses and love of savings and they are especially well received in kitchens and baths where they provide fresh air and privacy. A no leak solar powered freshair skylight, like those made by Velux America, can help reduce electricity costs by providing passive ventilation and natural light. Solar-powered blinds can improve a skylight’s energy performance rating by as much as 45 percent while making a strong design statement. Solar-powered skylights and blinds, plus installation costs, can be eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit. And for 10 weeks during the summer there’s also a $200 cash rebate from Velux on solar skylights.
