Date: Wednesday, October 1, 2008, 2:00 - 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time

The term green lease is often spoken in conversations regarding office buildings, yet it's a term without a real definition. Some believe you can "green" a lease by adding language to stipulate product requirements and construction practices. While that may give a lease a green touch, it's not enough to make a green lease. To truly create a green lease, we must rethink the basic systems and components of today's office lease and prepare to address the leasing demand of sustainable buildings penetrating the commercial real estate industry This webinar will prepare you to create, communicate and enforce your own green lease, and will introduce you to BOMA's newest publication, Guide to Writing a Commercial Real Estate Lease, Including Green Lease Language.
