Real Estate Services

I see the housing world in two chunks, the green homes…and the Not-YET-Green homes.  I offer services for both kinds of homes.  All clients receive a free energy audit!  Contact me for full details.

If you are like me and the vast majority of Americans, you probably live in a Not-YET-Green home.  And for the foreseeable future, the next home you buy will probably be a Not-YET-Green home too.   I can help you with a jump-start on the exciting green path to make it more comfortable and with lower energy bills!

Not-YET-Green Home Buyers

- Ready, Set Green HomesSM – An easy-to-follow solution to help you find the right home and then add value, while increasing comfort and energy efficiency.

- Total Cost of Ownership…What’s the Total Cost of Ownership?SM – I have a unique way to evaluate housing costs beyond what the bank cares about:  PITI.  I’ll help you also assess the “TUM” (Transportation, Utilities and Maintenance).  It’s a big portion of any family’s expenses!

Not-YET-Green Home Sellers – Are you interested in making your home stand out in a crowded market while also helping the planet?   Then my Ready, Set Green HomesSM program can help you!  Sellers opt into this program just like you might add a home warranty.  The program packages seller, lender and available tax credits to attract green buyers and help them jump-start green improvements at closing.

Green Home Buyers – I was involved in the design of the Green MLS in Chicago and I know how to use it to help you find the right home.

Green Home Sellers – My experience plus my EcoBroker and National Association of Realtors Green designations mean I am uniquely qualified to fully market your home.  Services include full promotion via green fields in the Chicagoland MLS, complete access to national green listing sites, and a fully customized digital marketing plan to reach buyers while reducing paper.
