I thought I’d just get some good information on energy efficiency in homes. What I got was my eyes opened to a whole new thought process about how I can better help my buyers and sellers search out more energy efficient homes, ideas on how to retrofit an existing home, and how to help make their homes healthier–and therefore, happier. The ETR class helped me appreciate the added value I could provide to my clients. The ETR class is, by far, the best real estate related value around for anyone who wants to take the first step to further their knowledge of environmentally friendly housing and living

I must tell you that your class was one of the most interesting CE classes that I have attended in my 22+ years in the real estate business.
