"Another unique partnership with Habitat for Humanity!  No building experience required. Just bring your energy, willingness to give back to those less fortunate and learn something new that is applicable to your appraisal practice!”

Join us for a rare opportunity to participate in a hands-on ZNE training event combined with community service!  The Stockton California Habitat for Humanity is currently in the process of building Zero Net Energy homes. The project and its Director, George Koertzen, have earned notable recognition for innovative building practices that meets ZNE goals in a cost effective manner. At the time of this event, there will be 2-3 homes in various stages of the construction progress. The following topics will be covered in discussions and wherever possible, through hands-on experience. Time spent on each topic will depend on that day’s construction schedule, the number of participants, and their ability to complete related building tasks.  Those who attended in 2017 will find it valuable to attend again in 2018 as content is being updated and the house(s) will be at different stages.
