Local Home Builders, REALTORS@, and Community Experts Attend Building Green Real Estate Course at the REALTOR® Building
For Immediate Release: Asheville, NC (March 12, 2015) – Western North Carolina Associations joined together to create a Building Green Real Estate Course that offers home builders and contractors a rebate on building permits. The Asheville Home Builders Association, Asheville Board of REALTORS®, and Western North Carolina Green Building Council have teamed up to create a green real estate designation to keep local builders and REALTORS® up to date in safety, compliance, marketing, and more.
Over thirty attendees attended the first course held at the REALTOR® building, located at 37 Montford Ave. Completion of the course, along with a HERS Rating and building permit submission, qualifies builders for a rebate on permit fees. The rebate is subsidized by a grant from the National Association of REALTORS®. The three organizations combined efforts to create a program to enhance real estate and construction in Western North Carolina.
