<GREEN HOMES = SMART HOMES = SMART INCOME!

Are you helping your clients live safer and healthier in their new home? You could be. Chances are, you probably bought, sold or staged a vacant house-maybe a foreclosure, or a short sale. It was probably a mess—and needed help.

These are changing times, especially in the real estate market. Whether we like it or not isn’t important. People who are buying are focusing on green living. Homeowners now want to feel safe and healthy. Just because they needed to buy a fixer, doesn’t mean that’s how they want to live. They are remodeling, redesigning,  cleaning up, and they need help!

How do we earn smart income with green homes? Today, people are looking for all aspects of green living. From a short sale, a foreclosure, to staging or remodeling, the Meredith Design Group, and JDRock , are redesigning rooms, installing eco-friendly building products, providing an energy efficient way of living—and, offering a cost-effective alternative to expensive design firms. But, it doesn’t stop at remodeling. There are many directions of going green from soup to nuts—like  Emeril Green Recipes  and  Living With Ed . Homeowners are cooking with healthy whole foods, driving smaller cars, and redesigning their living space. And most homeowners are just sick and tired of being around chemicals that create allergies, headaches, itching, and other health problems.

As a stager, I hear about these problems often, so I personally refer these safe eco-friendly cleaning products to clients, using them myself, as well as the health and wellness products. I love all of the items, so I offer many of the products as thank you gifts, holiday gifts, prizes at open houses, meetings, and presentations, including fundraising. It’s very rewarding.

So, in this unhealthy economy, I have the ability to enhance my real estate business with a healthy income. We hold a niche. Refer environmentally safe products to clients for their home or office. It’s that simple.

More product information and details can be obtained by emailing, or by calling.

Hi All!  I have been asked by the owner of one of the premier rural properties in Maryland to provide a referral to a real estate broker. Please contact me ONLY if you have sold large agricultural properties in the Mid-Atlantic states during the past few years. I’m looking for someone who can effectively market high-end, estate-size properties in the $2 - 5 million dollar range.
