Green Houses

I have been presented with a wonderful opportunity to market a multi-family "green" project--the first of it's kind in our area. Of course there have been a few single family spec homes and individual custom homes that have gone up recently, but this is the first luxury townhouse development to be constructed from the ground up in our particular market. The builders have partnered with Build It Green and have applied for the GreenPoint Rated process. It's going to be a fabulous project!

I was wondering if those of you out there as agents, buyers, and homeowners would help out by participating in an important survey I am conducting so that I can better serve not just the builder as a client, but future sellers and buyers as well. I really believe green building is the wave of the future and to serve all the interests of my clients successfully, your input would be greatly appreciated. Agents, any input you have outside of the survey with regards to how YOU may have been successfull with your marketing campaign of a similar project in yuor market--I would love to hear it!

I am offering the chance to win a $30 iTunes gift card to those who participate in the survey,s o be sure to at least include your email address so I can get ahold of you if yours is the name I draw when all the responses are in. The survey results will remain private and will not be shared with any outside sources.

Take the Green House survey now

Seattle is very green and honestly, I haven't been on top of it until I read your blog. I will look into that for the future.

Good survey... I keep telling people that its really not a "green home" without the little sticker on the electric box.

Not only does green save money for people in operating and maitenance costs, but I've read that appraisals of green homes are coming in 10-15% higher than with traditionally built homes. Good luck
