More Portland listings are arriving with a Home Energy Score attached, and 1111 SW Coronado St is one of them. If you are shopping for a home, this one-page report is a genuinely useful tool: it tells you how efficiently the house uses energy, what it likely costs to heat and cool, and which upgrades would move the needle most. Here is how to read it, why it matters, and where to find the report for this property.
What Is a Home Energy Score?
A Home Energy Score is a 1-to-10 rating, with 10 being the most efficient, issued by a certified assessor through the U.S. Department of Energy's Home Energy Score program. The assessor walks the property, measures the building shell and systems, and produces a report that estimates the home's annual energy use and costs, compares it with similar homes, and lists prioritized recommendations for improvement. It is not a pass-fail grade; it is a snapshot with a roadmap attached.
Why It Matters When You Are Buying
For buyers, the score answers a question that is otherwise hard to guess: what will this house actually cost to run? The report's estimated energy use turns vague worries about "old windows" or "electric heat" into concrete numbers you can fold into your monthly budget. Just as useful, the improvement recommendations show you the highest-impact upgrades, which is exactly the kind of information that helps you plan a renovation budget or negotiate thoughtfully. A home with a strong score and modern systems simply has fewer surprises in store.

The Energy Story Behind the Score
The score reflects a home that has been systematically updated for efficiency and comfort. In 2026 the main house received a brand-new roof. In 2020 the original forced-air system was replaced with a four-zone ductless mini-split that heats and cools each area independently, eliminating the 25-30 percent energy losses typical of ducted systems. A new EPA-certified wood-burning fireplace insert (2023) warms the downstairs, a gas insert (2018) anchors the main living area, and the 2018 kitchen and bathroom remodels brought modern fixtures throughout. The full timeline is on the Updates & Home History page.
A Practical Tool for a Confident Decision
Energy efficiency is one of those details that rarely makes a headline but quietly shapes your monthly costs for as long as you own the home. A Home Energy Score puts that information in your hands before you commit, and this property's report is available to review any time.
