If you’ve been wanting to upgrade you home to be more energy efficient and start earning tax credits, but have lacked the funding to get the ball rolling, wait no more. The government has issued a financial solution called HERO, or Home Energy Renovation Opportunity, which is basically home improvement financing.This program is 100% voluntary, keeps payment obligations with the upgraded property, and helps you and the city. On top of saving you money by making you home more energy efficient, HERO will also make you money by increasing your property value. See infographic from Global Efficient Energy for eligibility requirements.
