EXIT Realty Landmark Celebrates Recently Awarded LEED Professional Credential

Broker Designated LEED Green Associate®

New York, NY (Grassroots Newswire) January 20, 2012 -- Daniel Cho is a proud recipient of the LEED Green Associate® designation after successfully completing a rigorous and intensive protocol designed by the US Green Building Council and the Green Building Certification Institute. His resolve demonstrates his commitment to support the efforts of sustainable building design in New York City.

Vincent Koo, Broker/Owner of EXIT Realty Landmark, was also pleased by this achievement and remarked that, “There should be more real estate agents who make this kind of commitment to understand and support the latest developments in green building. It’s challenging to reach this milestone for a real estate broker, but it really demonstrates a commitment that more agents ought to make.” The importance of LEED is highlighted by some of New York’s largest landlords who believe that is an integral process that will be tied to every future major construction project.

Daniel believes in that vision because he is a full-time real estate professional with 7 years experience. It is easy for him to recognize this future landscape in real estate after working so long in sales of new construction and resale condos and coops, commercial leasing and sales. He is an alum of NYU Stern, and is presently an associate real estate broker, OICP and notary public. Daniel manages the EXIT Realty Landmark office in Flatiron, Manhattan as its Director of Operations.

About the LEED Green Associate® Designation

The LEED Professional Credential (LEED Green Associate®) is a professional designation for those who have demonstrated a thorough understanding of green building techniques, environmental issues, the LEED program and the certification process. LEED credentials show differentiation in a growing and competitive industry and allow for varied levels of specialization.

About LEED® Certification

The LEED® green building program is a voluntary, consensus-based global rating system for buildings, homes and communities that are designed, constructed, maintained and operated for improved environmental and human health performance. LEED addresses all building types emphasizing state-of-the- art strategies in: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials and resources selection, locations & linkages, awareness & education, indoor environmental quality, innovation & education and regional priorities.

In urban settings, buildings have a greater impact on human health and the environment than perhaps any other aspect of life. Buildings tax natural resources such as wood and water, contribute to global warming, and consume vast amounts of electricity. And that is certainly the case in New York City, where buildings account for 79% of greenhouse gas emissions, 85% of water use, and 95% of electricity consumption.
