The "performance home" movement is getting a boost thanks to this type of high quality real estate professional earning the EcoBroker designation. EcoBrokers®, like Kate, throughout the country are forging this market and creating competitive advantages for their customers. With national surveys indicating that 80% of consumers consider themselves "green-minded," real estate professionals with the EcoBroker designation are in a better position to serve the real estate consumer.
"My EcoBroker education and certification helps me ensure customer satisfaction," Kate explains. "From windows to moisture control to energy savings, I now have more resources at my disposal to help my buyers and sellers make green real estate decisions. The EcoBroker designation allows me to better understand the issues and to convey this understanding to my buyers and sellers."
EcoBroker International's education and designation program is designed
exclusively for real estate professionals who care about the
environment and want to help their clients benefit from the
energy-efficiency, "green," and healthier features of homes and
buildings. EcoBroker provides a complete curriculum of energy and
environmental training to licensed real estate agents.
Real estate professionals must complete the extensive EcoBroker
curriculum and training and fulfill additional program requirements to
become Certified EcoBrokers®. "Kate, is an example of the quality real
estate professional the EcoBroker designation continues to attract,"
explains EcoBroker International's CEO, Dr. John Beldock. "These real
estate professionals are not only distinguishing themselves in a
competitive market place, but they are really giving back to the
community in very constructive and meaningful ways." Dr. Beldock said.
Kate
explains, "With EcoBroker® training, I have broadened the range of real
estate opportunities I offer my clients. Whether the transaction
involves environmental assessment and mitigation (mold, radon, etc.) or
the opportunity to reduce utility bills, I'm in a position to help. The
real estate industry is changing, and to best serve my clients I need
to understand the newest designs, technologies, and environmental
issues. My EcoBroker designation helps me stay ahead of the game."
Kate
earned her EcoBroker Certified® designation in January and is wasting
no time in putting the tools and additional expertise to work. Kate has
already found that being a Certified EcoBroker® creates added value and
customer satisfaction that sets her apart from other agents. Kate says
she's looking forward to continuing to positively impacting the
quality, durability, comfort, safety, and cost-effectiveness of homes
and commercial buildings.
