Sage living - Healthier homes, more comfortable homes, lower utility bills

Details

Description	Laura Reedy Stukel is Elmhurst’s first EcoBroker Certified real estate agent. She has been selling homes in Elmhurst since 2001 and is carrying on the legacy her grandfather, known as “The Old Pro”, started nearly 60 years ago. Stukel’s passion for green homes and green living comes from her direct experience in rehabbing her 1966 Elmhurst home, and frustrations about the energy-efficiency of previous homes. She has extensive knowledge around environmental and energy-efficiency issues that affect residential real estate, but her focus is on helping families find or create comfortable, healthy homes that are cheaper to operate due to lower utility bills. She actively blogs about the topic at www.greenreedyhomes.com. She created the Ready, Set, Green HomesSM program to address needs very specific to the Elmhurst real estate market. The program gives interested buyers a head start on green upgrades to their new home via a package of seller, lender and tax credits. For sellers, the program allows them to reach the appealing green buyer market and helps their home stand out in a crowded market. The seller offers closing credits towards green upgrades that helps the buyer qualify for further green lending programs and tax credits. The program is especially appealing to owners of homes that in the past would have been considered a “teardown” or “fixer-upper” as these homes have the most potential for a greenovation.
