On Friday, January 27th, a LEED Platinum residential certification will be awarded to Glencoe residents Natalie and Barry Slotnick.

This family received a comprehensive energy audit from one of our recommended auditors prior to the creation of MyHomeEQ. Because the homeowner has carpentry and contracting skills, they elected to complete the work themselves in stages and are taking their time getting everything just right.
When you start with a home energy assessment, learning how to make your home more comfortable and lowering utility costs is easy. Think of it like a check-up for your home that helps to identify problems and solutions.
At MyHomeEQ, we're convinced that the value of home efficiency improvements shouldn't be limited to the savings on your utility bills, though the long-term payback there is frequently better than investing in the stock market, especially in the last few years. Energy efficiency retrofits are home improvements, just like upgrading your kitchen counters or getting stainless steel appliances, and should improve the overall value and equity of your home.
