"Promotional" financing programs aren't the answer for many consumers faced with expensive energy or other home improvements.

Transparent financing programs for energy-efficient home improvements are hard to come by. Those that appear to be low fixed rates transform into credit card-type programs, where your interest rate skyrockets to 25 or even 30 percent after the promotional term. With no patience for late payments, these programs prey on the opportunity of customer misfortune.

Understanding that the cost of subsidizing “zero percent”, or other artificially low rates for longer-term unsecured financing, may result in a higher price for the product overall is the first step to choosing the right program. Sometimes, your utility or state may subsidize the program which does not add to the cost to you, so be sure to check out those programs. The National Energy Improvement Fund’s simple, transparent and fair financing means the rate is locked in for the term and not subjected to change like many credit products offered through retailers or manufacturers.
