If you are not familiar with real estate there’s a wild theory out there that may surprise you.  Bury a statue of St. Joseph in the front of your house (upside down) and your house will sell faster.  Really? Yeah, that’s the theory.

Buy into the theory or not, since most of those St. Joe statues are made of plastic and never dug up after the sale that’s not very “green”.  That’s where Cindy Lin came up with a green solution.

EcoJoe is biodegradable.  Sounds simple enough right?  The company is also socially aware.  Every quarter they’ll give part of their proceeds to a deserving charity. They do so by being part of 1% for the Planet alliance. This Quarter, it’s  Friends of the Urban Forest

The centuries old practice of burying a statue of St. Joseph on real estate for sale is reputed to enlist the saint’s assistance in finding a buyer. Before Joseph became the patron saint of real estate, he was Jesus’s foster father on earth who taught Jesus the trade of carpentry. He always saw to it that Jesus was protected and well housed.

The tradition is about trust, belief and sincerity, not greedy intentions to make more money in a real estate transaction. Today, thousands of home sellers and real estate agents continue the tradition of calling upon St. Joseph to help sell their property with successful results.

I attended the EcoJoe “Launch Party” in San Francisco this last week and had a little fun with video.  Here’s just a sample of what I captured.  The videos are going viral now and I actually have people who were not at the party recording and submitting their own story!
