What is an EcoBroker®?

Increasingly, consumers correlate home energy efficiency and environmentally sensitive design with quality (and quality of life).

Wouldn’t you rather work with a Realtor who shares your values in environmental and social responsibility? 

With over 3,000 Real Estate agents to choose from in the Twin Cities, it can be overwhelming trying to select the right one! If you choose the wrong one, you can end up with bad advice or miss out on unique opportunities that could cost you thousands.

How do you find a Realtor that seeks to understand your unique needs for buying or selling real estate, provides top quality service and shares your values in environmental and social responsibility?

The truth is, you couldn't ... until now.

Gina Vermilyea is the first EcoBroker(TM) Certified Real Estate Professional in Minnesota that is working towards solving environmental and energy related problems, one home at a time.

Testimonials

Dear Gina,
I would like to take this opportunity to commend you on the professional job that you did of selling our condominium. I felt you were very thorough in your research of what was needed for the sale, and very proactive and aggressive in marketing the property. I would recommend you to anyone looking to sell their property.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelly

To Whom it May Concern,
Selling a home from a distance of 90 miles away could have been difficult until I was introduced to Gina Vermilyea. I recommend her highly to anyone needing an honest, loyal and energetic person. Her knowledge as a Realtor is second to none.
Sincerely,
Richard Novak, PhD, New Ulm

To Whom it may concern,
"Gina was the listing agent for our triplex  in St. Paul. We were amazed she sold our home in only 11 days, and for more than the listing price! From start to finish Gina was on top of everything. I believe one would be hard pressed to find a more tenacious, creative and hardworking Realtor."
Sincerely,
Terry Wurden and Chris Sutton
