What is a green home? The definition isn't the same for everyone, but generally the goals for green include conservation in site planning, water, energy, indoor air quality, and materials. Waste not, want not. Specifically this means a careful use of land, thoughtfully designed buildings, a sealed building envelope, the most efficient systems possible, and use or reuse everything you can.

In surveys done by the National Association of Home Builders and McGraw-Hill, 85% of green-home owners said they were more satisfied with their green home than with previous homes. The best resources to bolster your green knowledge are the US EPA website on green building, NCSEA website, NAHB website, or NCHealthybuilt Homes website. Also, feel free to contact us directly and we'll point you to some local resources.
