"Just because your company may be small doesn't excuse you from your environmental responsibilities." These words, stated by Jude Biedenkapp of Bay Area Appraisers, not only undoubtedly expressed her environmental concerns but also signaled her wish to have her firm take a leadership role in this seriously important area.

As a outcome of this commitment, Ms. Biedenkapp worked with Jean Cozzolino of Greener Perspectives, a Certified Green Consultant, to see precisely what extra things her firm might have to do to reach national certification. "Many of us would like to do the right things" said Ms. Biedenkapp, "but I also wanted to see what other things I may be able to do to add even more". As a result, Ms. Cozzolino conducted an independent, third-party audit of Bay Area Appraisers business practices to resolve accurately where the firm was in terms of meeting the rigorous standards to attain national certification.

This in-depth evaluation indicated that Bay Area Appraisers had not only incorporated solar heating for hot water but also had installed programmable thermostats, low-flush toilets, power strips to reduce phantom load, rain barrels for landscape watering, EnergyStar appliances, and only uses vacuums with HEPA filters. Additionally, the firm's routine business practices include duplex printing, recycled paper and ink, paperless invoicing, primary use of e-mail over regular mail, water filtration system, and plastic bag recycling. And there's moremuch more.

In fact, this assessment proved that Bay Area Appraisers not only met the minimum requirements for national certification but was qualified to obtain a "Gold" status certification indicating major accomplishments. When offered with the findings, Ms. Biedenkapp noted that, while she was extremely pleased with her firm's present accomplishments, there was still an extensive way to go. "This is just the first step. While I'm grateful of the acknowledgment, I was most excited that I was able to learn what additional I could do. Plus, I anticipate many more firms will join us in our efforts to help our environment."

Bay Area Appraisers is a local firm that prides itself on providing the highest quality valuation services while maintaining competitive pricing. While they utilize the latest appraisal and information technologies, their real goal is to maximize customer satisfaction. And they're obviously committed to conducting their business in a way that is mindful of their environmental responsibilities.

In conclusion, Ms. Cozzolino noted that "It's always a great opportunity to work with a firm that is authentically dedicated to minimizing its negative impact on the environment. Bay Area Appraisers is truthfully a firm that has earned its national certification and it was a delight to award them this small recognition for their accomplishment.
