From a
story by Linda Falkenstein on the Daily Page of
Isthmus:
While new construction often has a green-built component and Energy Star labels on appliances, someone looking to buy an older home in an established neighborhood, especially one that's had environmentally conscious upgrades — added insulation, better windows, energy-efficient appliances or maybe even solar panels — will find it difficult to find that information with a quick search of the Multiple Listing Service. While you can search for price, neighborhoods, numbers of bedrooms and bathrooms, or lakefront property, you can't search for an energy-efficient property. And where there's a need, there's soon a service to fill it.
There are a number of real estate agents in the Madison area who are interested in helping clients find homes that fit their criteria for environmental soundness — and they're also committed to raising the consciousness of homeowners overall about the efficiency of their homes.
