Green Choices Abound
April 9, 2009 3:40 pm Information
Rental properties have jumped onto the green bandwagon mainly because of the many incentives the government is giving for early adopters of green technologies. Commercial spaces have long been one of the most polluting structures in the world and with rising concern for the environment, developers have taken uo the call and opted to go green.
Those lucky enough to benefit from getting into buildings and structures that have been made from the bottom up green, stand to get lots of tax rebates and other financial incentives from the state and federal government. Structures that are so advanced in terms of technological prowess, showcasing some of the latest and greenest technologies get certified like the prestigious LEEDS certification which states the measure of “sustainable green” that can be found in a structure. The compliance needs are quite numerous and crazy even, with thousands of computations that will dissect the sustainability of the building, the highest level is Platinum which states that a structure is totally sustainable.
