Employee – practices what he preaches. Modest Green Home Retrofit

  • / By
  • admin

Brett Little is purchasing and remodeling a 1926 year old two story home in GRand Rapids MI. The Mortgage is through a special Michigan Saves / DTE rebate program. His goal is to show how first time homebuyers and those looking to refinance can put green upgrades into their mortgage and get tax credits (In Michigan) to do it. He plans to reduce energy use by 1/2 (Pre HERS – 184!) of the current amount. Improve Indoor Air Quality, find watersavings, complete a sustainable landscape plan, share practical/local green home tips and overall be more green than you can image and save $$ doing it.  You can follow his blog and progress here
