Why Live in a HealthyBuilt Home?

NC HealthyBuilt Homes' vision is based on the 3 P's - people, planet and pocketbook. 'Planet' (or environmentally sensitive) building practices are integrated with the idea of enhancing the lives of people in an economical manner so it helps your monthly 'pocketbook'. Other names for HealthyBuilt: "green", "sustainable" or "high performance" building.

A NC HealthyBuilt Home is moving the North Carolina market toward:

• Lower operating costs - Lower utility bills for heating and cooling
• Increased comfort - Improved indoor air quality
• Creating lasting value - Third party review
• Building with health in mind - Lowered Environmental Impact

In 1987, the Brundtland Commission on the Environment provided a good working definition for sustainable practices, describing the concept as "meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs."
