Green Building Value Summary
National Underwriting Education. Home Depot, Federal Home Loan Banks, Federal
Reserve & CMP determined that national education on green affordable housing
underwriting is important & needed because:
affordable community benefits the most from green buildings due to
operational
savings that are a bigger part of their budget, & improved
health from clean indoor air
including reducing triggers to asthma
Added Value Proposition is Very Clear. Wall Street due diligence released at the NYSE
with national statistically valid data. Waste of time & money to try to reinvent the value
proposition.
Measuring Green Affordable Value is No Different.
Added Value is From Specific Green Features / Technology. Due diligence also shows
increased cash flow & reduced expenses from:
efficiency
proximity to transit
onsite renewable
integrative design (capital, O&M, risk: e.g., energy recovery ventilator)
commissioning
improved indoor air
Green Building Value Summary
Technology Based Consensus National Approach for Measuring Value is Required to:
Avoid market confusion
Ensure green building commercialization
Reduce risk and uncertainty
Effectively deal with complexity
Conform with how the building industry is regulated by consensus
standards. This is why Phase 1 & PCA are required and LEED took off.
Ensure compliance with FTC Guides & differentiate from national
backlash on greenwash which is unlawful
Facilitate much needed large scale national financing
Ensure collateral value enhancement
Lack of technology based underwriting standards as part of
PACE is why FHFA & OCC are opposed: concerned with
more
collateral devaluation on the heels of subprime.
For these reasons, Underwriting Standards were created, unanimously approved &
market tested
Wall Street due diligence shows large scale national financing need for green building
renovations due to:
long term rising conventional energy costs based on globally validated data
imminent irreversible unmanageable dangerous climate change /ongoing
systemic financial market risks / need to stimulate the economy
Sustainable Investment Initiative
Capital Markets Briefing Paper: Business Case for
Commercializing Sustainable Investment©
Summarizes four years of Wall Street due
diligence with investors, investment banks &
rating agencies concluding that green buildings
and SMaRT certified sustainable products are:
• More profitable
• Less risky
• Preferred by investors in Survey
initiated with S&P covering over
$3.3 trillion in assets
• National statistically valid data
Peer Reviewed Briefing Paper was released for top management at

Sustainable Investment Initiative
Green Building Securities (GBS) are bonds backed by green
building mortgages.
GBS & Green Value Score are part of Rebuilding
America’s call for 50 million green buildings in
the next 10 years.
There is substantial latent investor demand for
GBS. Based on successful precedent, investment
banks expect GBS Pilots to start a resecuritization
of the building stock providing cheaper cost of
capital for green building renovations facilitating:
• Refinancing addressing commercial real estate crisis
• Substantial climate pollution reductions
• Green jobs / economic stimulus
• Capital markets’ increased liquidity & confidence
Sustainable Investment Initiative
Green Building Securities (GBS)
LEED Certified Apartments have been
identified as GBS candidates with leading
financial institutions for pilot single
property / asset securities including
Affordable.
Higher ratings path forward has been identified with
Moody’s, S&P, Morningstar, Eagen Jones & I Banks with
Green Value Score© alignment with rating agency 10
financial factors.
Nine GBS Pilots with investment banks have been
identified including $500M funding allocations for GBS
pools.

LEED EB CERTIFIED
National Geographic Society
Headquarters, Wash., DC
The Society added $16M in
value from this LEED
certification from a higher
appraised value, raising
tenant rents, lower
operating costs, increased
credit rating from Moody’s,
& lower interest rates on
large loans secured to the
building. Presentation at 2003
