If you’re looking for ways to save on your energy and water bills, we can help. With the cost of living soaring including utility bills increasing, knowing how you can reduce your energy usage can help ease the financial pressure.
Apartment and unit dwellers often feel helpless dealing with increasingly high energy and water bills, because they think nothing can be done to change the situation. Particularly when it comes to increasing body corporate fees caused by increasing costs of running the common areas in their block.
For over 15 years, Green Moves has been helping homeowners and tenants live more sustainably and comfortably, in their homes, apartments and units. We can help you identify what’s using energy in your apartment or unit and give you advice on how best to deal with it. If you’ve got high common area charges, we can help with this too.
Our services range from a simple advisory consultation (approximately 1 hour or more), a Scorecard assessment, or an energy audit.
There are many benefits to getting a Scorecard assessment for your apartment or unit. It provides an indication of the cost to run, tells you how well your home performs in summer and winter, where it uses the most energy and empowers you to make informed decisions and improvements. You’ll also get a Scorecard certificate with the energy efficiency star rating for your home.
You can choose from three types of energy assessments that will help you identify ways to reduce your energy bills. This is what a Standard energy audit includes
You will get a summary report by email with our findings and recommendations and a list of priority actions for you.
Our fee is approximately $420 including GST, depending on the size of your apartment.
If several people in your building would like an assessment, and it can be arranged on the same day, we’re happy to make this more cost-effective for everyone involved.
The common areas in your building contribute significantly to Body Corporate costs for you as an apartment or unit owner. There are many ways to minimise these costs without compromising on the services they offer. Our thorough common area assessment includes
You will receive a short and easy-to-follow report, helping you to understand how the energy and water in your buildings are used. We’ll also give you a prioritised list of actions that your Body Corporate can work through at a suitable pace.
You can also get a NABERS assessment done for your building’s common areas. By assessing the common areas in your building for energy, water and waste you can see how well your building is performing when benchmarked against others, reduce operating costs, and increase market value.
Our assessors have years of experience in residential apartment efficiency. We’re fully accredited assessors and understand well how important home comfort and cost efficiency is, and the limitations of some apartment buildings.
You’ll find a full range of sustainable home solutions from our list of services. From basic guidance to fully tailored solutions, we’ll work with you to make sure you get the best advice and service.
We don’t take any fees or commissions from providers so you can trust that all the advice and recommendations you receive are completely independent. We pride ourselves on our easy-to-understand reports and practical advice that is also financially viable.
You’ll love how easy it is to deal with us. We believe in being honest and open and always strive to communicate clearly with you. You’ll always find our friendly team approachable and helpful.
We look forward to helping you make more informed decisions, save money, save energy and live more comfortably.
