The decision to buy a new home must take into account many factors but one of the most important ones is how well the home is located and oriented to support the desire for a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
Buying a home based on the traditional rationale of size and location from a real estate point of view can lead to significant ongoing costs if the fundamentals of good sun and energy efficiency are not there or cannot be acheived.
