Greenrenter.com - Find a Green Place to Live or Work

Currently only serving the Portland, Oregon area, but with plans to expand to other American cities in the near future, GreenRenter is an online directory of “green” or environmentally conscious commercial and residential property. GreenRenter helps potential tenants find properties that meet their environmental requirements and it is fast and free for owners to post their green properties on GreenRenter.

GreenRenter is quite inclusive when it comes to who can list their property and in order to be considered green, you just have to show that it has at least one green feature in any of the following seven categories: energy, water, building materials, operations, building surroundings, certifications and awards, or other innovative green features.

“With GreenRenter you can: Find a green place to live or work, discover green buildings in your neighborhood, get recognized for your sustainability efforts - add your green building in just a few minutes, advertise a green property for lease - listing is free and easy and learn about the sustainable features of leading green buildings”

Environmentally conscious owners, buyers, renters and property managers should all be in favor of this site which helps to differentiate green from not-so-green. Look for this site to expand into other green-friendly cities in the near future.

Have they considered trying to be a bit more stringent with who can and can’t list their property? As it stands right now, it almost appears as though they are willing to accept any listing which could end up damaging the sites reputation and utility. Perhaps they could come up with a rating system check list so that the greener the building is, the more exposure it garners.
