This just in from the California Association of Realtors: "The government is expected to unveil a new program in the next couple of months that, if approved, may reimburse homeowners for up to half the cost of making their homes more efficient. Through the program, homeowners will receive the largest return from simple upgrades like caulking windows, adding insulation, and changing incandescent light bulbs to those that are more energy-efficient."
Of course, they are recommending an energy audit. The audit will reveal what is the best course of action to take and what will save you the most money (first of course you want to save enough money to cover the cost of the audit!) When the new program launches, you will surely be able to cover the cost of the audit with the government's money. OK OK I know it's our money, yes, but I rather see our money going back to us then to a bankers bonus check!
