A year ago, the Northwest Multiple Listing Service added green design search features to its property listing database. Over that year, green homes in King County have sold quicker and for a higher value, according to research done by GreenWorks Realty.
GreenWorks looked at new homes that were sold on the NWMLS between September of 2007 and May of 2008.
