&lt;span class=&quot;summary&quot;&gt;Open House: Newly Remodeled GreenPoint Rated Homes&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdtstart&quot;&gt;Start Date:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;abbr class=&quot;dtstart&quot; title=&quot;20121010T170000Z&quot;&gt;Oct 10, 2012 10:00 AM&lt;/abbr&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdtend&quot;&gt;End Time:&lt;/span&gt; 
&lt;abbr class=&quot;dtend&quot; title=&quot;20121010T210000Z&quot;&gt;Oct 10, 2012 2:00 PM&lt;/abbr&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdescription&quot;&gt;Event Details:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;description&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Be at the forefront of the green real estate market and see for yourself how green upgrades can improve a home&#39;s value and appeal.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;h2&gt;
		&lt;strong&gt;9952 Myroc St., Bellflower, CA 90706&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		We are showcasing a property whose owner took advantage of rebates from &lt;a href=&quot;https://energyupgradeca.org/county/los_angeles/overview&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Energy Upgrade California&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.energyupgradegreenlabel.org/index.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Green Label Rebate Program&lt;/a&gt; to make energy efficiency upgrades and obtain a GreenPoint Rated label.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		You&#39;ll meet the contractor and GreenPoint Rater who worked on the home&#39;s green upgrades and learn how you too can leverage Energy Upgrade California and Green Label rebates to your client&#39;s advantage.&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Green labeled homes have been found to sell for a 9% premium. A &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.builditgreen.org/_files/Marketing/ValueofGreenHomeLabelsStudy_July2012.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;study published last month&lt;/a&gt; provided the first statistical evidence that a green label on a single-family home in California increases a home&#39;s value compared to a similar home without the label.&lt;br&gt;
		&lt;br&gt;
		While this study surveyed newly built homes, labels can also increase the value of an existing home.&lt;br&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;br&gt;
	And now that Energy Upgrade California in Los Angeles County is offering up to $4000 in rebates for green home improvements, and up to $2000 for a GreenPoint Rated label, there has never been a better time to help your clients get the green home they want. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.energyupgradegreenlabel.org/index.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Learn more. &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;vcard&quot;&gt;
&lt;a class=&quot;fn&quot;&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
