It's been one of my best investments thus far as I've had to put very little time, energy and money into it.

Maine has the efficiency Maine program, of course, which can reimburse for some energy upgrades.

But the maintenance and energy level required is so much higher than other niches.

Our staples are Ag and hydro energy. 

Coverage will vary by local, city, county, state governments, but some examples might include requiring sprinklers, upgrade electrical wiring (older homes can have aluminum wiring which isn't used often anymore at least in CA), electrical panel upgrades, insulation / energy value requirements, different fire place construction

The purpose is so  we can spend more time working in ministry, be more generous, travel, and be in control of our time and energy and not have someone else allocate those resources to suit there own purposes.

Please help I really think this is a great deal but I don’t want to waste my resources or energy if I’m unable to move forward.

I’m curious what brands or specific models you use in your rentals that are cost and energy efficient for the following items:ToiletsRefrigeratorsMicrowavesStoves/ovensWashersDryersDish washersThanks.

Also how much a property can increase in value when installing energy efficient appliances and solar pv?

And it’s power is supplied by Center Point Energy.
