SUMMARY:High Performance Homes Valuation 2 Parts 1-3
DESCRIPTION:For RE Appraisers This is #3 of a 3-Course Series.\nThose who complete the series will earn a Special Certificate.\n1. Solar PV: Technology and Valuation ( agents\, appraisers) Held 10/28/2024\n2. Carbon Free Homes: Features\, Benefits\, Valuation ( agents\, appraisers) (Held 11/4/2024)\n3. High Performance Homes Valuation 2 (This Webinar) Classes will be delivered in 3 segments on the same morning. 9am-12:20pm PST 3 hrs CE: BREA\, BOE \nTopics covered:\n– Client’s Journey. We consider 4 different scenarios related to buyers and sellers\, their various motivations and the connections to the benefits of higher performance homes.\n– How & why HP homes can be superior to code-built. We examine 12 distinct benefits.\n– Advancing knowledge of building science: orientation\, enclosures\, mechanical systems\, solar and storage. We refer to a real project in-progress of construction\, a Passive House zero-emissions home.\n– Recognize features during inspections\, understand their benefits\, and be equipped with key questions to ask about subject homes and comparables. – Review the three standard valuation approaches and discuss a key challenge to completing an appraisal; what questions to ask about comparables.\n– Class exercise: Appraisers will gain practice in application as they consider a real\, in-progress of construction\, zero-emissions home. The ensuing group discussion of valuation approaches and challenges is a highlight of this session and of the entire 3-course series. \n\nNov 12\, 2024 09:00 AM\nNov 12\, 2024 10:10 AM\nNov 12\, 2024 11:20 AM

SUMMARY:Practical Efficient Hot Water Delivery: Structured Plumbing Applied in Retrofit and New Construction
DESCRIPTION:On the average Californians consume less water than the residents of other states. Even so there is a need for us to conserve even more water. The construction community has an opportunity to further reduce residential water use in ways that do not feel like conservation to our customers. In this class\, Dan Perunko of Balance Point Home Performance looks at changing the way hot water is stored and delivered to the tap in residential buildings. The theory behind our approach is called “Structured Plumbing”. This will be a practical class focusing on how to install or modify hot water plumbing following the principles of “Structured Plumbing”. The presentation is based on completed projects including retrofits and new construction.
