Reuse in Real Estate: Helping Clients Make Sustainable Choices

This 1-hour CE class introduces Minnesota real estate agents to climate-conscious resources that they can pass along to their clients. Chances are, your clients want to make sustainable choices and reduce their negative impact on the environment. While many consumers think sustainability requires new "green" products, reused materials are our best option to reduce our carbon emissions and energy usage. This class equips real estate agents with the most up-to-date and localized resources in the Twin Cities' reuse economy.

You will learn where to find local reuse and repair resources, how to best share information with clients, and why reuse is essential to building a more sustainable future. Your instructors are Emily Barker, Executive Director of Reuse Minnesota, and Natalie Heneghan, Community Outreach Director at Habitat for Humanity of the Greater La Crosse Region. This course is approved for 1 hour of CE credit for real estate agents and tickets are $20. This class is free to the public. Homeowners planning a renovation project, contractors, and anyone interested in creating a more sustainable future are encouraged to attend.
