Green Mortgages...Do We Have to Go Online?

I love to shop Locally, for myself as well as my client. I have tried to get info from any LOCAL ANY bank as to if they do any work witha green mortgage. Of those dozen i contacted REPEATEDLY, only two have responded, and they basically said "I don't think we do those."

And that was that.

Tonight i stumbled across two interestingsites online -Mortgage Green and My Energy loan- who seem to tout doing a great job and offer discounts to clients buying green homes. One even buys carbon offsets for each loan signed.

I like to shop locally. We are in a small town and support each other well. But maybe I'll have to venture out to find that special "deal" for my green clients.

Love to hear from NAR Green Realtors who have had local luck with finding a green mortgage in their area. And too, love to know if anyone has had success suing these two online sites, or are they buyer beware?

Have a spectacular summer.
