Taking place April 28-29, 2009 in Phoenix, AZ, the new NAA Green Conference & Exposition will highlight the opportunities, hurdles and potential pitfalls that have arisen as a result of the green movement.
Because of many factors including rising energy costs, potential global climate change, and general environmental awareness the “green movement” has arrived at a tipping point where it has become impossible to watch television for more than fifteen minutes without viewing content that relates in some way to green. As a result future renters are more likely to seek out properties that are environmentally friendly. In addition to energy cost savings and the profits to be made by capturing green conscience renters, multitudes of governments at the local, state and federal levels have promulgated green regulations that impact the multifamily housing industry. Jurisdictions have enacted new green building codes, incentives, and regulations for the efficient use of energy in the operation of real estate.
