For lawyers who think the green movement is passing fashion or that green law means just a LEED Gold rating for their client's new building, this webinar is a wake up call.
Find out why the green revolution has an impact on all types of real estate agreements and buildings ? existing structures as well as new projects. What should you ask when your clients call with a new lease, mortgage, investment, insurance policy, alteration, or development project? What should you answer when they ask whether your city can really require them to retrofit their old buildings?

*Green ratings
*Green mandates and incentives, including zoning, income tax and real property tax incentives
