Learn More About Insulation
Insulation affects comfort and operating costs in every season, yet it is rarely spelled out in a listing. By one industry estimate, about 9 in 10 U.S. homes are under-insulated, so it is often a point of difference worth documenting for buyers.
Every Pearl SCORE™ Report includes guidance on insulation:
- How to identify where a home has it
- Why it matters to a buyer, from comfort to operating cost
- What to look for over time
- What to confirm when listing and what verify when supporting your buyers
The Report focuses on the most common insulation types and locations. It does not document every case. When a home has an unusual setup, you may need more than the Report provides.
