Earning LEED or Green Points allows for mortgage loan advantages and tax rebates. In 2005, the United States Energy Policy Act was passed. This legislation gives financial incentives to residential contractors who build energy efficient homes. By using energy efficient building materials, such as SIPs, builders and contractors can qualify for a $2,000 tax credit on residential homes. To receive the tax credit, the builder must follow the guidelines set out in IRS Notice 2006-27 http://www.irs.gov/irb/2006-11_IRB/ar12.html. To do so, the home must undergo an inspection from an energy rater certified through the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET). To find a RESNET energy rater in your area visit www.natresnet.org. To get more information on Green Building Incentives and Rebates, visit www.dsireusa.org. Available environmental tax credits and deductions vary by region.
