Pearl Certification

Pearl is a national firm dedicated to increasing the value of energy efficient and high-performing homes. An independent appraiser study found that our third-party certification can increase resale value by 5% on average through the verification of investment grade data on products and performance. Working with real estate agents, contractors, and builders, we help sellers recoup the value of their home investments by increasing buyer confidence in one of the most important transactions of their lives: purchasing a home. High-quality contractors and builders are qualified to participate in an elite Network that can register their work and certify a home in connection with energy efficiency, solar, or other performance upgrades. Our system documents and captures the value of contractors' work through a special report and Appraisal Institute Addendum. Qualified, large real estate brokers participate in our Broker Advantage Network, which gives their agents access to discounted certifications and a suite of tools to differentiate agent professionalism and services. Pearl's certification will be a driver in the New Energy Economy and the national standard for high-performing homes. Our certification is currently available for contractor licensing nationwide.
