Green Building and Certification
 
Building a Green Home is easier then some may think.  Many Home Builders today implement many green practices but lack the certification or haven't had their homes rated by a qualified evaluator.

Why should builders construct green homes or use as many sustainable features as possible? As more people become aware of environmental issues, more home buyers are requesting green homes.  They are even willing to pay a higher price  knowing that in the long run they will save money on utilities and be helping the environment at the same time.  Additionally, there are tax credits and loan programs that allow buyers to qualify for a higher mortgage
if they buy a green home.

You will find a wealth of information on this page and numerous links to  Green resources.  

I look forward to bringing builders, buyers and sellers together to meet our  common goal of leading a greener lifestyle. Contact me if you fall into one of  these categories.  I will be glad to assist you in whatever way I can.
