Professional Builder

Realtors Go Green

By Sara Zailskas, Assistant Managing Editor -- 12/1/2008

If you build green and rely on Realtor relationships to sell your homes, you can have a Realtor specifically for your needs. The National Association of Realtors now offers a green designation, which goes to Realtors who have completed courses about energy efficiency and environmentally sound buildings. The designation identifies Realtors who can properly talk with buyers about the benefits of green building as well as distinguish between industry ratings and classifications; relay information on financial grants and incentives; and educate your home buyers on resource-efficient homes. See www.greenresourcecouncil.org for more information.
