About the Program

NC HealthyBuilt Homes is a voluntary, statewide green building certification program adminstered by the North Carolina Solar Center, and supported by the State Energy Office, Home Builder Associations, and other professional building organizations. The WNC Green Building Council (WNCGBC) and the Asheville Home Builder Association (AHBA) are pleased to offer the WNC HealthyBuilt Homes Program to builders in the Greater Asheville Area and the following NC counties: Buncombe, Cherokee, Clay, Graham, Haywood, Henderson, Jackson, Macon, Madison, McDowell, Polk, Rutherford, Swain, Transylvania, and Yancey. If you are not building in one of these counties visit the Community Partner Map to determine who to contact.

HealthyBuilt Homes is targeted at small to medium sized home builders who may not have the resources to compete with larger builders in the rapidly emerging field of green building. This program offers a recognized green certification, technical and marketing assistance, design reviews, workshops, and field consultation services that enable builders to increase their green building expertise, gain market share of home buyers interested in high-performance building techniques, and boost companies profitability.
