LEED for Homes Overview Part 3

Mike Holcomb, President, The Home Inspector General, Inc. gave a LEED for Homes Overview presentation at the Chicago Architecture Foundation, on 7/8/08. LEED for Homes is a voluntary rating system that promotes the design and construction of high-performance green homes, including affordable housing, mass-production homes, custom designs, stand-alone single-family, duplexes and townhouses, and low-rise apartments or condominiums. LEED homes have lower energy and water bills, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and fewer problems with mold, mildew and other indoor toxins. Homebuilders using LEED are able to differentiate their homes as some of the best on the market.
