More Builders Adopting High-Performance Building Practices

Dodge/NAHB study finds 91% of home builders use energy-efficient approaches, and over two thirds (69%) do so on the majority of their projects.

Home builders across the country are prioritizing high-performance building practices in their projects, regardless if they consider the home they are building to be green, according to new research published in the 2020 Green Single Family and Multifamily Homes SmartMarket Brief from Dodge Data & Analytics in partnership with the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB).

The research also revealed that almost all builders are incorporating energy-efficient practices and over two-thirds are also using practices designed to improve indoor air quality and water efficiency.
