Real Estate Agents cannot become "official" ENERGY STAR partners. However, they can help their clients understand the value of energy efficient new homes by educating them about the features and benefits of ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments and forming relationships with ENERGY STAR builder and rater partners. In addition, there are a number of 'green broker' programs that do offer certifications, such as the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR) Green Designation and Eco-broker.
