Free Federal Tax Incentive Decoder

July 8, 2009

Philadelphia, PA – July 6, 2009 – Most of us are confused about how to qualify for the green tax credits available to every homeowners under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) which was signed into law by President Obama in February 2009. The ARRA provides tremendous opportunity for all of us to save money if we weatherize our homes. But how much will it cost the average family and what exactly do we have to do to reap the rewards? Green building efficiency expert Charlie Szoradi and his team have spent the last several months reading and deciphering the 400 page legislation. They have distilled it down to 11 pages of easy to read information so homeowners can focus on next steps instead of wading through the official language of the ARRA. GREENandSAVE is now offering this Federal Tax Incentive Decoder for free. This resource does not cost a dime and can be downloaded at: http://www.greenandsave.com/homecheckup/free_federal_tax_incentive_decoder

This green decoder will help homeowners uncover information regarding various energy efficiency improvement tactics they want to pursue including reducing utility costs, producing power, financing options, buying their first home and/or buying a new car.

Charlie Szoradi, a member of the Green Economy Task Force explains, “Our research team has decoded the act to find the most cost-effective ways for homeowners to save on their utility bills. We may have read more of the details than the politicians who voted for it and given our focus on Green Return on Investment there is some great news, but there are also pitfalls. For example, you may be considering replacing an exterior door. You are eligible for a $1,500 tax credit, but the new door must have both a U-Factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) of 0.03 or lower to qualify”.
