seeing green-building diagnos-tic tests, conducting a three-part building assessment to determine the amount of energy the client could save with an environmentally conscious remodel.
And no, she doesn’t mean just buying solar panels. These tests were focused on air-duct sealing and gas leakages.
“Solar panels and all that, that’s great,” Carey said. “But if your house isn’t sealed ... I always tell people, it’s like putting a sexy nightgown on a pig.”
“People think about green build-ing, ‘Oh, I gotta put in the bamboo floors and do my Hail Marys to the sun,’” said Rick Williams, consul-tant for Mason-McDuffie Mort-gage Corporation in San Jose, who attended the workshop. “No, that’s not it at all. People have to re-learn that idea a bit.”
There are many options when it comes to green building, ranging from energy-efficient remodeling to new-construction homes.
At Starburst Construction, “the green building we have done has been on landscaping (water con-servation and edible gardens), re-models (air leakage, sustainable materials, foundation-radon-safety issues) as well as assisting in the design and build of a complete green home,” Carey explained. “We guide our clients to whatever ‘shade of green’ they feel comfort-
able with.”The range of choices has proven
to be effective. Nationally, green home building comprised 17 per-cent of the 2011 residential con-struction market, according to a McGraw-Hill Construction study published in February. The market share is expected to grow to 29 to 38 percent by 2016, with value in-creasing five-fold from $17 billion to $87-114 billion.
Williams, a fellow certified green building professional, focuses on the finance aspect of green build-ing. He works with homeowners to finance eco-conscious construction or remodeling.
In his experience, many home-owners are concerned over the high up-front costs of environmentally friendly home construction.
“Does it cost more (to build a green home)? I’ve heard 5 percent more,” Williams said. “But look-ing at the durability of the home (and its) decreased energy costs, it’s much, much lower.”
At the recent Build It Green meeting, keynote speaker Tenaya Asan, program manager of Build It Green’s Green Point Rating pro-gram, spoke about how to gain fair market value for green homes.
Many buyers are interested in such houses, especially the hope of lower utility bills, but few are will-ing to follow through and pay the higher upfront costs, Asan said.
Until recently, green upgrades
were not factored into appraisal ratings, and thus did not contribute to the value of a building. But to-day, green buildings are receiving higher appraisals than before, Wil-liams said.
A major statewide push rose up from the development of programs like Green Point Rated (GPR), which Palo Alto architect Tali Har-donag described as “a report card for home construction.”
Created by Build It Green, a Green Point Rating serves as “a certificate that validates that the project has been evaluated by an
independent rater and has met the minimum number of green points that have been achieved, based on the Green Point Checklist,” Har-donag said.
Asan cited a statistic from the Na-tional Association of Home Build-ers, which states that 70 percent of homeowners would pay $5,000 more for a green home. Thus, high-er Green Point Ratings add to the value of a house and increase the likelihood of its purchase — or at least that is the hope.
“The market for green homes in this area is limited to the few that understand and think it is impor-tant,” Carey said. “However, every-one wants to do the right thing and save money and energy.”
Increased visibility and presence of green building has become more important than ever. A huge state-wide push in this direction came from Energy Upgrade California, a $300 million program that provided rebates to homeowners who make energy-efficient home upgrades. The goal was to educate residents on the need for and availability of “green” home improvement.
Santa Clara County funding ran out, but the awareness and visibil-ity of eco-homes continues to grow. Certified green building profes-sionals, who used to be few and far between, are also now much easier to find, Hardonag said.
Additionally, a collaborative re-alty organization known as “Green the Multiple Listing Service” (Green the MLS) has sought to in-
crease the accessibility of for-sale green homes to buyers. The MLS is a resource used by Realtors to dis-seminate information about homes in a given area. “Greening” the local MLS would involve making local real estate databases search-able by the homes’ available green features.
As these features grow in usabil-ity and popularity, the challenge is to continually get the public and their Realtors on board with the value of green building, Williams said.
Homebuilders are optimistic about this growth. According to McGraw-Hill, one-third of build-ers and 22 percent of remodelers expect to be completely dedicated to green building as of 2016, dou-bling and tripling today’s statistics, respectively.
Today, “when we’re thinking of green building, it’s a new building paradigm,” Williams said. “(We want to) use sustainable products that are durable and that provide for greater energy efficiency. We’re not just all in our Birkenstocks and hanging out in the mountains.”

“If I want a Best Seller, I advertise in the Almanac and the Weekly.” – Lyn Jason Cobb
As a Realtor serving Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Atherton, Portola Valley and Woodside, I do my utmost to provide extraordinary service to my clients. The Almanac and the Palo Alto Weekly is always where I advertise fi rst because I like the home delivery, editorial focus, and it is a great value. I have always had great results promoting open homes in the Palo Alto Weekly and The Almanac, and I also run in special publications like Spring and Fall Real Estate, Neighborhoods and Info Menlo because of the great coverage and online presence. I am also a big believer in the Palo Alto Weekly’s Open Home Guide, which is by far the most accurate and comprehensive. I’ve had many buyers bring in the guide to my ‘Open Homes’ to see what I have listed.”

Buying ($2 million home)
in Silicon Valley?
Palo Alto?Los Altos?
Menlo Park?
Will & Pauline have two
small children and, hence,
everything was about the
perfect
location without
the hustles of busy
streets, long
commutes to
schools and tight
spaces.
The House Wishlist
Will had the chance to take money out of his start-up. The
dilemma now: Is it worth it to buy a single family home
in Palo Alto with a small lot? Or should they go to the
next town, Los Altos, where the lots are bigger, less pricey
and have room for remodeling/expansion?
“A remodeling project is not just a monetary investment
but also takes a long time,” said Juliana, who knows
from her experience of building her own house.
Both Will and Pauline are working professionals. Often times remodeling requires decisions right away
or the construction will be delayed!
Cashing on stocks to bid higher or remodel?
Home Style & Flow
Most of the time, they found themselves compromising the looks of their future home over
the interior layout. “It is sad that, in Palo Alto, we are not looking to fall in love with the
house but rather whether we can live there or not...But that’s the price of living here,” said
Will.
Should we consider Menlo Park
In Menlo Park, Will and Pauline found a new construction
5BR/3.5BA house. It was in a good location in
terms of proximity to Palo Alto and 101 for less
than 1.7 million!
Now, Will and Pauline had to contemplate
between living in quiet Menlo Park neigh-
borhood versus the perks of living in a
vibrant downtown with access to excellent public schools
having 900+ APIs.
“There is no way we are going to get it!” said Will and Pauline everytime they look at pictures of Bryant,
a renovated 4BR/4BA Victorian home just a few steps from downtown. Any buyer might have walked
away since this 2 million dollar home was going to go over the list price by several hundred thousand
dollars. This neighborhood is very desirable. The home is situated in a district with excellent schools and
only a walk away from University Avenue.
Will and Pauline questioned their realtor, “Juliana, why are we looking at it, it won’t happen!” Now a
month later, Will and Pauline are taking measurements to shop for furniture. They never imagined that
their home search would culminate in downtown Palo Alto!
“We have faith in your magic!” as Will and Pauline thanked Juliana who was able to place a winning
offer on their home thanks to her connections with the listing agent.

Will and Pauline were impressed with the
open kitchen, living room lay-
out and the flow into the yard
of Newell, which had recently
been upgraded. “It feels good when
a $2M home had some money invested in
it,” said Pauline.
Yet, the exterior of the house was boxy and not
particularly attractive, at least in their eyes.

shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, pos-session, condition or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts cre-ated by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $592,077.52. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a writ-ten declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is locat-ed. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auc-tion does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the prop-erty. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the exis-tence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, ben-eficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (619)590-1221 or visit the internet website www.rppsales.com, using the file number assigned to this case 1341790-02. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone informa-tion or on the Internet Web Site. The best way to verify postponement infor-mation is to attend the scheduled sale. For sales information:(619)590-1221. Cal-Western Reconveyance Corporation, 525 East Main Street, P.O.
