PHILOSOPHY
Every development leaves a footprint. The question is what kind.
We believe real estate carries the responsibility to improve cities while reducing environmental impact.
This means designing buildings that consume less energy, perform better over time, and contribute positively to the people who live, work, and experience them every day.
THE 3 PILLARS OF VERDE DEVELOPMENT
Passive House Standard
Passive houses provide exceptional energy efficiency, lowering utility costs and increasing property value. With New York City’s Climate Mobilization Act requiring buildings over 25,000 square feet to achieve at least a B energy efficiency rating by 2030, Passive House certification guarantees compliance and avoids costly future upgrades.
Certified passive houses can reduce utility bills by up to 90% compared to conventional homes, thanks to their superior insulation, airtight design, and energy-efficient systems. This translates to lower monthly common charges and electric bills, leading to long-term savings.
Beyond energy savings, Passive House technology significantly improves your quality of life by maintaining consistent indoor temperatures year-round and ensuring excellent air quality by filtering out pollutants andallergens. The design also incorporates superior sound insulation, minimizing outside noise for a peaceful living environment.
