Buy a New Home With Green Features
January 27, 2010
The housing market may be presently having a rough time, but there are still many people looking to buy a new home. Whether you are purchasing a house for the first time or a seasoned home buyer, it is important to remember that buying a house is one of the biggest decisions in your life. The size, location and style of your house, as well as what you plan to do create a huge impact on your life.
With this in mind, consider the benefits of an eco-friendly home features as you go house hunting. Eco-friendly homes help protect nature, but also less expensive. The benefits of buying a green-featured home includes reduction in pollution, greater energy efficiency, healthier air indoors, preservation of natural resources such as native habitats and water and lower maintenance costs. These homes also maintain their value even in the current slow real estate market, appraising up to fifteen percent more than conventional homes.
How do you find out if the home you are contemplating to buy has green features? You would know if a home has eco-friendly features if it has the following:
1. It should have a U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED certified ratings.
2. Possess an air quality enhancing features
3. Low emissivity and double paned windows
4. Appliances that are energy efficient such as Energy Star appliances
5. Makes use of solar power or natural lighting from the sun
6. Native, drought-tolerant landscaping
7. On-demand hot water system and water saving showerheads
8. Low-flow toilets
9. t uses paints, adhesives and stains with low or zero volatile organic compounds to improve indoor air quality.
10. It makes use of structural panel systems and eco-roofing systems.
11. It should have deciduous trees growing on the south and west parts of the house.
12. The home should “breathe” naturally, built with sustainable materials like adobe, straw-bale, rammed earth or insulated concrete forms.
13. Native, drought-tolerant landscaping and rain-catchment or gray water system
14. A green home is smaller compared to conventional homes. Since this requires few construction materials, it leaves less damage on the environment.
When looking for a nature friendly home, bear in mind that these homes are designed, constructed and operated using resources that has a lesser negative effect to nature. You can verify whether the home has been certified through one of the many nature building programs, which includes Austin Energy’s Green Building Program, National Association of Home Builders Green Building Program. There are also some programs for new and existing homes through Energy Star, a joint program by the Department of Energy and the Environment Protection Agency. These groups provide certain standards for certification. They can recommend on how to create a more energy-efficient home.
You may also have a third-party home energy rater to check out the energy features of a home. There are several recommendations on the sites of Energy Star, Austin Energy and the National Association of Home Builders green programs.
It is also important to ask your real estate agent how much they understand about eco-friendly homes, environmental issues and healthy house building practices. He or she should be able to help in your search for the nature friendly home of your dreams.

Seal Beach Real Estate Agents: Your Partner In Owning A Home
January 13, 2010
Buying a new home in Seal Beach can be a very time consuming process. You can literally spend days just looking at listings, and still not be able to pick out anything you think would work for you. All the properties start to blur together in your mind, and it can be a real battle to make progress toward a sale.
You can save yourself a considerable amount of time by partnering with a locally based Seal Beach real estate agent. Your agent’s job is to know what’s on the market now, so you don’t have to waste your precious time clicking on listing links. With around 1500 homes for sale at any given moment, it pay to go with someone who already knows the property market well rather than wasting days trying to give yourself an insiders edge.
A Seal Beach real estate agent should also, on a personal level, share the buyer’s enthusiasm for their impending purchase. Good realtors work for more than money. Though the commissions are oftentimes very impressive, many agents still enjoy the thrill of getting their clients their dream home. There are few, if any, more important purchases in an individual’s life and making a match between the right home and the right owner is something of an art. Good realtors will be personally involved in all of their transactions and will take a particular level of pride in making certain that all their client’s needs are met.
Seal Beach real estate agent services are very much tied into technology. The good realtors use technology to their client’s advantage, making certain that they are informed of the latest houses that come available and that the agent can work market trends to their client’s favor. This blend of the personal and the professional is what makes a relationship with any service provider work. Where real estate is concerned, there are few more important relationships than a good one between an agent and their client. With the right agent, a client can rest assured that they are getting the best deals.
