Join Earth Advantage® and the Oregon Association of REALTORS® for a webinar designed to help real estate professionals understand how the new statewide Oregon Home Energy Score program works and how to leverage it with clients to help them clearly identify energy costs and upgrade opportunities.

The Oregon Department of Energy’s new Home Energy Score initiative was launched in early 2019 to offer a statewide, standardized approach to home energy scoring. A Home Energy Score helps homeowners and homebuyers identify improvements that can make a big difference in energy savings, comfort, health, and durability. Providing a Home Energy Score at the time of listing can also give sellers a boost in the current housing market where energy efficiency and renewable energy are highly valued. A score can also help homebuyers—especially first-time buyers—understand how energy bills could impact their budget in a new home.
