Raising Green Awareness Within The Real Estate Community
In anticipation of Earth Day on April 22, HomeGain is proud to announce the kick off of the HomeGain Green Real Estate Campaign.
Throughout this campaign, we will provide ideas designed to inspire Realtors to make changes in the way they conduct business. Many of these ideas will enable them to help homeowners and home buyers make eco-friendly choices.
This month the HomeGain Green site features include:
- In partnership with the ArborDay.org, HomeGain pledges to pay for up to 1,000 trees to be planted in national forests
- “Greening Your Real Estate Practice” webinar by Jeffrey Bastress
- HomeGain Radio audio interview with Marie Scheuring who discusses “Benefits of Being an EcoBroker”
- Eco-real estate tips
- Area to enter your own “Green Idea”!

I certainly thing “Green” is good and I received a “Green” certification last year myself. But, I see a lot of people losing touch with the practical aspects of life and living green.
Time is a very valuable resource for all of us and I think the time impact of some of the “green” ideas really needs to also be looked at.
Many times I read “green” ideas that would suck up a significant amount of a consumer’s time. That becomes a false economy.
