Currently, the housing market does not effectively or consistently recognize and value climate-friendly homes. When information about a home’s climate-friendly features is available, buyers can’t easily access it in order to factor it into their purchase decisions. Earth Advantage developed the Green Building Registry (GBR) to bridge this gap by connecting available home information to the broader real estate market.
GBR is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) and data aggregation platform that houses data directly from credible third-party home performance certification programs. Its custom API enables this data to be auto-populated in multiple listing services across the country. Since the data comes from its originating source, appraisers and lenders can trust the accuracy of the information and appropriately consider it in the valuation and lending stages of real estate transactions.
