GREEN TIPS:

  • Thinking about repainting the interior of your home? Lighting accounts for 11% of homes and up to or more than 25% of workplaces energy costs. Check the LRV (light reflective value) of the paint on the walls (it’s on the back of the paint chip)... (Also the paints VOC)
  • 91% of those looking for a new home say energy efficient features are extremely important. Start with a green assessment of your home - email us.
  • A recent study showed that the value of a home is directly related to energy saving components. As much as $20 of value may be related to every dollar of reduced energy cost.
  • Evidence is mounting, that in areas where the metric is available, third party certified sustainable homes sell faster and for more money.
