Metrolist Launches New Green Fields to Real Estate Listings

Metrolist Denver announced?on March 7?the enhancement of their real estate listings database to include searchable energy ?green fields?. The online Multiple Listing Service (MLS), which is managed in the Denver Metro area by Metrolist, has been enhanced to give Realtors? the ability to include energy efficiency green fields like insulation, solar, and Energy Star appliances, in their home listings. It provides a tool for Realtors? to search for homes that are a better fit for their client, and increase the marketability of homes that are for sale.

The Governor?s Energy Office (GEO) contracted with Metrolist to create the green fields in their database using funds from the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA). Metrolist is the largest online MLS covering 40% of the state. With today?s announcement, Colorado now has 90% of the homes covered by a green MLS.?

?We are proud to partner with Metrolist,? says TJ Deora, director of the Governor?s Energy Office.? ?Their adoption of ?green fields? will help us determine if and how energy performance might soon be reflected in property values, which in turn should unlock traditional sources of low-cost financing for energy efficiency investment in homes.?
