That's the same sales pitch they give for solar. There's no proof of that but it is a nice selling feature..
My son just bought a 5 year old house in Avon Conn and it has a back up generator. He paid 135K less than it cost to build it. The generator didn't help the sale in this case. He would have bought the house even without it.
What they say about real estate is true, the 3 most important things are, "location, location, location."
