It was bound to happen: A website devoted to buying and selling green homes. A search for California properties only turned up a handful of Bay Area homes, but we're holding out hope that more are to come.

Future green building must take account of the "green washing" that seems to be accelerating throughout the real estate market place. I've seen repeated use of words like "green" and "stewardship" across the board. I've seen some Realtors using the word "green" in their ads, knowing that awareness is elevating by the media and they use that hype to drive more traffic to their listings. I've ran across great sites such as http://www.ListedGreen.com ( Listed Green ) that screen developers and realtors so as to minimize the "green washing" effect. Some blogs have been overused in this regard as well. Hopefully, the general public can sift through this green hype and really see the changes that builders and developers have to do to reduce our carbon footprint. listedgreen on May 23, 2007

I'm curious about whether people think this will be a "high end" option or across a range...I searched under $100K, and found 1 actual house (in the middle of the desert).

My husband and I are planning on remodeling our house, and we're hoping to do some 'green' improvements- but how much of a premium will people be willing to pay for a green choice? Blue_roses on May 15, 2007
