LOCAL REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS CERTIFIED TO ADDRESS AND ENCOURAGE THE BENEFITS OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND GREEN FEATURES IN HOMES

Spruce Grove, Alberta (Grassroots Newswire) February 23, 2011 -- Ian Kondics and Chantel Nieberding of EXIT Realty Solutions in Spruce Grove have earned the Ecosociate^® designation, having successfully completed an award-winning informative training program on the energy and environmental issues that affect real estate transactions. Ian and Chantel join the movement of professionals pushing the real estate market toward energy-efficient, sustainable, and healthier features in homes and buildings. Ecosociates^® like Ian and Chantel are building premier market presence by serving as consumer and community resources on energy and environmental issues. With national surveys indicating that 9 out of 10 consumers consider energy efficiency and the environmentally sound aspects of a home to be almost as important as interior finishes, Ecosociates^® are simply in a better position to serve the savvy green-minded real estate consumer.

“We are always looking for the best ways offer our clients the best value and also develop a relationship where they feel we are a trusted resource,” Kondics explains. “Our Ecosociate^® training helps us ensure that our customers, who are our number one priority, get the knowledge they need. From energy-efficient appliances to solar options to overall energy savings, we now have more resources at our disposal to help our buyers and sellers make informed real estate decisions.”

According to Nieberding, “the Ecosociate^® designation doesn’t make us energy and environmental experts, but it puts us in a position to recognize issues and convey information on the products and services available to our buyers and sellers.”

EcoBroker International provides an award-winning energy and environmental curriculum to licensed real estate professionals, leading to the Ecosociate^® designation. The program is designed exclusively for real estate professionals who care about the environment and want to help their clients benefit from the energy-efficiency, “green,” and healthier features of properties. The extensive curriculum of energy and environmental training requires participants to fulfill additional program requirements to become certified Ecosociates^®.

We are very proud to have them on our team.”
