"Green Is In" in Charlottesville! Many builders are utilizing new ways to build, including
Barry Meade building in Westhall, west of town, at $300,000 & up; Avon Park in Albemarle County only 10 minutes to UVA at $439,000 & up; Lake Monticello a 4,000 home community with golf, tennis, clubhouse and 250 acre lake at $279,900 & up; Boxwood, a new neighborhood at $419,900; Deer Lake Estates in Greene County; Proffit Ridge by Dominion Development has a $1,000,000+ home; also Artisan Homes, Doug Lowe is doing "green" commercial as well as "green" residential homes.
Building a green home is more expensive but the buyer will receive lower utility costs & much more, not to mention helping the environment.
There is a new real estate designation called "Eco Broker" that I will be taking shortly to learn even more about green, environmentally-friendly housing.

Karen,
Thank you for participating in Blog Action Day.
Here's a belated post I wrote that might be of interest to your readers, especially realtors:
Brazilian Teak, Slave Labor, and the Destruction of the Rain Forest.
You can find it at:

Anything that you can do to help promote awareness of this issue will be greatly appreciated. Normally, I don't ask for this kind of help, but the issue is that important to me.
Thank you!
Thanks for posting Kermit! And thanks for the link to your blog article on Brazilian flooring! That is shocking and interesting!
Karen
