Ecoprêt - Your energy savings will be rewarded

You've heard so much about them that you can't ignore them any longer. Especially as you now see them just about everywhere… except on your roof! Now is the time to take a more serious interest, for the sake of our planet!

Buying to renovate, or simply renovating your property after several years because it no longer meets today's energy standards, is a great project that requires certain knowledge. Before taking the plunge, you should find out what's new in the energy sector by contacting various suppliers and also by checking out all the state aid and private support available to ensure you get the most favourable financing. In this article, we'll look into the good reasons to start an energy renovation project this year.

Sophie used to dream of a house with a big kitchen garden where she could grow vegetables and pretty rose bushes to her heart’s content. When she and Marc found their home, it wasn’t in the best condition – but they jumped at the chance to sign on the dotted line without really thinking about how much it would cost to repair. Now, a few years later, they have finally decided to tackle their renovation project.

Since 2018, Sophie and Marc have dreamed of a trip to Japan, and this is when they started their "Japan trip" project in their MIA personal assistant. But as events unfolded, they became parents to little Lilly, there was the pandemic, the renovation of the house, and fulfilling this dream had to wait. Despite their other projects over the last five years, they have managed to save up for their trip to Japan. Find out about how they have planned it and how credit card insurance can help.

It’s been a while since Sophie and Marc bought aunt Elise’s beautiful house. Finally, the works are almost finished and they’re getting ready to move in. The costs of the renovation, the mortgage and the interest charges have made Sophie and Marc’s savings dwindle. With Marc’s parents having decided to sell their house in order to live in the South, they have given their children some money. This money, the young couple wants to invest in the family’s future.

Since moving into their first home and undertaking the renovation of their new house, Sophie has developed a passion for interior design. She therefore decided to transition to a new career and enrol in an in-depth training course. With a busy schedule, fortunately she can now make her Spuerkeess appointment via S-Net and spuerkeess.lu!

Ever since she first became a mum, Sophie has loved Mother’s Day. She always looks forward to the day, wondering what Lily will have made for her at nursery. Then the big day arrives, and her special little girl presents her with a multi-coloured object, with a huge smile on her face, shouting impatiently, “It’s for you, Mum, open it! ”. What will Mother's Day have in store for her this year?

After a long discussion with her aunt Elise, the answer was staring Sophie in the face... If her aunt doesn't feel up to looking after her beautiful house any more and wants to live in a small flat instead, Sophie won't stop her. Indeed, when Aunt Elise has an idea, it is best not to stand in her way. Moreover, Aunt Elise's house would be perfect for Sophie and Marc as they are talking more and more about extending their family but don't have enough room where they currently live. The answer to everyone's situation? Sophie and Marc will buy Aunt Elise's beautiful house, but before moving in, they'll do some renovations to improve its energy performance.

For Sophie and Marc, 2021 wasn’t exactly a typical year. The COVID-19 health crisis caused them to change their habits and made them more sensitive to environmental issues and their consumer behaviour. Last summer they bought electric bikes to get around in a more eco-friendly way, but during the winter they realised that some trips are much easier for them by car. That’s why their new year’s resolution for 2022 is to replace their family car with a more sustainable vehicle that's better for the environment.

When Marc and Sophie chose to spend their summer holidays in Luxembourg, it was a joint decision. Sophie saw it as an opportunity to combine gardening, trips and lounging around, but when Marc announced that they would visit the north of the country by bicycle, she was no longer sure she wanted to follow him.
