Is your home Green Certified?

As both energy costs and environmental
awareness rise, energy-efficient "green"
homes are becoming more and more popular.  
JW Home Inspections, Inc. and
MoveInCertified.com's Green Certification
program can help you enter into this new
market with an edge.  To determine if your
home qualifies, follow these simple instructions:


1. Print a copy of the MoveInCertified.com
Green Certified Checklist


(may take a few moments to load)

2. Go through the worksheet and attempt the
answer each question listed in the
OBSERVATION column to the best of your
knowledge.  If you don't understand a question
are are unsure about it, don't worry--this step
is simply an initial assessment to determine
whether you're ready to have your home
independently evaluated.

3. Tally your answers to pages 1-3 (adding the
values of the POINTS column together) in the
provided space labeled FINAL RESULTS on
page 3.


If your results are close to the required levels
listed in the FINAL RESULTS section on page
3:
Contact JW Home Inspections, Inc.
to come to your home and visually inspect it.  
This
independent verification is a required part
of the certification process.  The inspector will
then submit an application on your behalf, and
(assuming your home qualifies) you will
receive a printed certificate within 4-5 days.  
You can use this certificate to advertise your
home as Green Certified.
* Green Certified inspection fees will vary
but generally range from $250-$500.  This is
the only fee associated with the certification
(you will not be billed by MoveInCertified.com).


If your results make it clear that your home
won't qualify for certification:

Consider upgrading areas of your home; you
can use the checklist as a guide.



Green Certified homes are healthier, more
environmentally friendly, and economically
smarter than average homes.

My Promise to You
Choosing the right home inspector
can be difficult. Unlike most
professionals, you probably will not
get to meet me until after you hire
me. Different inspectors have
varying qualifications, equipment,
experience, reporting methods, and
yes, different pricing. One thing for
sure is that a home inspection
requires a lot of work. Choose us to
inspect your new home and I
guarantee our best efforts because
your satisfaction is our number one
goal.
I personally perform each inspection
and write each report. Reports are
concise, easy to read (typed,narrative)
with a Summary page. Reports sent via
email
or using Fetch Report On-line
system.  Inspections are
comprehensive, and performed to  
NACHI Standards of Practice.
