By Jennifer Lynn Walker<\/strong><\/p>\n Here are a few tips for you realtors to make a big impact.<\/p>\n I am a big talker and doer when it comes to the environment. I believe that with what we know today, it would be disrespectful and completely unconscious to not make decisions based on the environment and what we know, especially considering that there are many choices available today. We all need guidance, so here are a few tips for you realtors to make a big impact.<\/p>\n 1.<\/strong> Drive a hybrid. Because 33% of CO\u00b2 that is being produced is from transportation (Sources of CO\u00b2 in he US as of 2004). This conscious change in vehicles would make the biggest impact of all. We spend A LOT of time in our cars and when you are in the market for a new one\u2026think green. For all you show-off realtors who need to have the best of the best, hybrids are very trendy and hip. The choices that are coming out for 2019\/2020 are swanky. Google \u201cnew hybrids\u201d and you\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n 2.<\/strong> Recycle and reuse. How many listings do you print off that you end up not using or even keeping? Lots! Please recycle. Or better yet, turn them over and re-print on the good side. I do it all the time. It\u2019s my copy and when it is noticed by the buyer, I can brag how I am saving the environment. You\u2019ll be saving some coin in your pocketbook too.<\/p>\n 3.<\/strong> Use electronics. Instead of driving all over to get signatures, please fax, scan, or email. As long as you pick up the originals in the end, it all works out. You\u2019ll not only save emissions from driving, money for gas, but your time as well. Another great electronic device is the PDA (or blackberry, iphone\u2026whatever works for you). You\u2019ll be saving a lot of trees and you can sync it with your computer making you more organized.<\/p>\n 4.<\/strong> Encourage your work to go eco. If they don\u2019t already recycle mention it every time you go in. They\u2019ll get the idea. Ask to receive notices by email and not by paper. Ask them not to put junk mail into your mail box. Tell them about natural cleaning products. If that doesn\u2019t motivate them, donate some!<\/p>\n Love your work and your environment. Passion goes a long way and so does thinking (and doing) about what type of impact your have. Or\u2026.just ignore the environment, it will go away.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ custom_padding=”0|0px|29px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.3.1″][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.montreal-realestate.ca\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Jennifer-Lynn-Walker-Image.png” _builder_version=”3.17″ max_width=”66%” custom_margin=”15px||”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.8″ text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_font=”|600|||||||” header_text_color=”#000000″ header_font_size=”25px” header_4_font=”Alegreya||on||||||” header_4_text_color=”#aaaaaa” header_4_font_size=”25px” header_5_font=”||||||||” header_5_text_color=”#e02b20″ header_6_font=”||||||||” header_6_text_color=”#e02b20″ custom_margin=”45px|||” animation_style=”slide” animation_delay=”400ms” animation_starting_opacity=”100%”]<\/p>\n Jennifer Lynn Walker has specialized in buying and selling both residential and multiplex properties since 2003.
