“Smart” Houses Sell In Down Market
Home owners hoping to attract buyers in the midst of a housing slump are “teaching” their homes to save money on energy costs.
“Smart homes can be made even smarter if they are wired to control energy costs as well as water the lawn and arm the alarm system,” says Sheldon Anderson, president of Atlanta Smart Homes Inc.
All American Homes, LLC today continued its commitment to environmentally friendly systems-built housing with the delivery and assembly or “set†of the home for the exhibit Smart Home: Green + Wired, Powered by ComEd and Warmed by Peoples Gas, opening at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Ill. on May 8, 2008. All American Homes built the fully functional “green†home, designed by Michelle Kaufmann Designs, which will be on exhibit on the east lawn of the Museum grounds. The exhibit will run through January 4, 2009.
