Making Money from Sustainable Homes: A Developers Guide
The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) & PDM
Consultants have published a developer’s guide to making
money from sustainable homes.
The guide, authored by Elliot Carter a CIOB scholar,
presents seven major areas of potential business benefit
to adopting sustainable design and construction
processes in the housing sector, illustrating that an
integrated approach to sustainability has the potential
to save money and increase profit margins.
Various case studies illustrate that a growing number of
developers are making a commercial strategic decision to
improve the environmental and social performance of
their schemes. These companies are forerunners to what
is likely to become standard practice over the next 5-10
years, and because of their commercial foresight, they
stand to make more money out of their robust, successful
businesses.
The Rt Hon Nick Raynsford MP commented, “Setting the
business case for environmentally and socially
sustainable housing is crucial in enabling the
construction industry to contribute effectively to
finding solutions to global problems, such as climate
change and to put the UK industry at the forefront of
sustainable design.
“This guide provides residential developers with an
overview of business benefits and opportunities that can
be obtained by thorough consideration and implementation
of sustainability. It also illustrates that this
approach can contribute to long-term commercial success.
I am delighted to be able to this CIOB publication my
full support.”
