FYI: I’m EcoBroker Certified

Earlier this year I trained for and earned my EcoBroker Certification.  At the time, only a handful of agents held such a designation.  Subsequent to receiving my EcoBroker credentials I was contacted by and interviewed by a few publications and news organizations.  I thought the buzz was kind of cool at the time, but after a few months I forgot about it.

Yesterday a colleague informed me that she had come across one the articles for which I was interviewed.  Although published last month I thought I’d include a link to it here if you’re interested in reading.

Here’s an excerpt from this Inman News piece:

EcoBroker-certified Chase International agent Guy Johnson said that he considers his green education to be a valuable asset. While some agents promote themselves around being a "green" agent, Johnson said he considers his certification as one of the many tools in his skill set.
"I need to be prepared should I have a client asking me questions regarding green features of homes and energy efficiency," Johnson said. "I don’t go out of my way to make recommendations for home improvement, but I do want to be prepared should I be asked. I look at it more as a skill or tool to have.”
