AMADOR COUNTY REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL MICHAEL I. PULSKAMP, OF MAIN STREET BROKERS, CERTIFIED TO ADDRESS AND ENCOURAGE THE BENEFITS OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND GREEN FEATURES IN HOMES


Amador County, California – October 23, 2007 – Michael I. Pulskamp, of Main Street Brokers in Jackson has earned the EcoBroker Certified® designation, having successfully completed a unique and informative training program on the energy and environmental issues that affect real estate transactions. With national surveys indicating that 80% consumers consider themselves “green-minded,” real estate professionals with the EcoBroker designation are in a better position to serve the real estate consumer.  “I’m always looking for ways to offer my clients the best value. My EcoBroker training helps me ensure customer satisfaction, my number one priority,”

Michael explains.  “From moisture control to limit the opportunity for mold growth in the spring to ideas on shade trees that can keep you cool in the summer to windows that can help you save money on energy in the changeable weather of fall, even information on cheaper ways to stay warm in the winter, I now have more resources at my disposal to help my buyers and sellers make better real estate decisions.  The EcoBroker designation doesn’t make me an energy and environmental expert, but it allows me to better understand the issues and to convey this understanding to buyers and sellers who choose to work with me.”  

The EcoBroker designation program is designed for real estate professionals who care about the environment and want to help their clients benefit from the money saving, energy-efficient, “green,” and healthier features of homes and buildings.  EcoBroker provides a complete curriculum of energy and environmental training to licensed real estate agents.  Real estate professionals must complete the extensive EcoBroker curriculum and training and fulfill additional program requirements to become Certified EcoBrokers®.  “Michael is an example of the quality real estate professional the EcoBroker designation continues to attract,” explains EcoBroker International’s CEO, Dr. John Beldock.  “These real estate professionals are not only distinguishing themselves in a competitive market place, but they are really giving back to the community in very constructive and meaningful ways.  Amador County needs more contributors like Michael. The planet and our grandchildren need them too,” Dr. Beldock said.  

From his Jackson office, Michael explains, “With EcoBroker® training, I have broadened the range of real estate opportunities I can offer my clients.  Whether the transaction involves environmental assessment, such as well water quality, or mitigation (mold, radon, historic contamination, etc.) or the opportunity to reduce utility bills, I’m in a position to help.  The real estate industry is changing, and to best serve my clients I need to understand the newest designs, technologies, and environmental issues.  My EcoBroker designation helps me and my clients stay ahead of the game.”
