The GreenPoint Checklist was developed to offer builders, homeowners and municipalities a tool to assess how environmentally friendly or “green” a home is. It is based on recommended practices in the Green Building Guidelines that are incorporated into the home. The GreenPoint Checklist was developed in coordination with local builders, city planners and building officials.

The GreenPoint Checklist is also the basis of GreenPoint Rated, a third-party home rating program offered by Build It Green. For more information about GreenPoint Rated, visit www.greenpointrated.org or call 510-845-0472.
