Help Your Clients Get GreenPoint Rated with Our New Survey!

Want to help a client showcase or sell a home that has had some green upgrades by getting it GreenPoint Rated? With our new survey, it's easier than ever to tell if the home is GreenPoint Ready!

Take this short survey on your iPad, smart phone, or on paper. By walking through your client's home and answering the questions, you'll find out how close their home may be to earning a green label, which can help them get a 9% premium on the sales price.
