Recently, Florida Green Homes has been observed in local newspaper articles
The management group at Florida Green Homes is on a mission. They’d like to educate the general public, elected officials, realtors and the media as to what certified green construction is all about… for FREE. They’re heading into the project without commercial purposes or profit in mind because all their experience in green construction has shown them that most people still don’t understand how green construction can benefit them.
Recently, Florida Green Homes Builder has been observed in local newspaper articles and internet press releases due to increased public awareness of the benefits that green and hurricane resistant construction provide to today’s new home buyer.

LUXURY HOME BUILDER SYN - ER - GIS - TIC . . .
…a unique term that means: “the sum of the parts is equal to more than the total of the whole.” Yet, it certainly applies to the importance of your understanding (and, more importantly, your clients’ understanding) of just what a green home is and why Florida Green Homes is a luxury home builder.
Many builders are hopping on the “green home” bandwagon these days. It’s easy to say… it rolls right off of the tongue… and, potential home buyers are getting more and more attuned to the term. But, it takes more than slapping a couple of Energy Star appliances in the kitchen to make a home truly green.
A green home starts with vision and planning; including the lot, the architectural design of the house, and the mechanical systems within. Certifying Agents of the Florida Green Building Coalition work with a green builder from day one. They inspect and sign-off on steps along the way to aid the builder in creating a home that can and will be certified green by them and to assure the home buyer that they are purchasing a real green home.
For example… did you know that there’s a special glue to be used in assembling some of the mechanical aspects of the home that get buried within the slab? Well, there is! Selecting the proper design, materials, construction techniques, finishing, appointments and landscaping all add points in the certification process. The highest rankings of the FGBC are Gold and Platinum Certification.
Those two certifications are what Green Homes Builder, plans, builds and delivers with each set of front door keys turned-over to a new home owner. In fact, we present the new owners of our homes with six certifications; not only the FGBC certificate, but the EPA’s indoor airPLUS, FPL BuildSmart, Energy Star, Water Star and Florida Yards & Neighborhoods.
So there you have it. A true green home, like the ones built by Florida Homes Builder, are synergistic: from Luxury to Affordable, they are highly energy efficient, healthy to live in, hurricane resistant, and certified green.
A luxury home builder would charge so much more to include all the standards that come featured in a Florida Green Home. Compare the specs for yourself and you will see that Green Homes Builder is truly a luxury home builder that offers incredible standard price packages for the smart home buyer.
