&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;u&gt;Benefits of Working with
Ecofutures Building:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;font-family: Trebuchet MS; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Working with Ecofutures, you are guaranteed a
home as green and net-zero energy as you want.&lt;br /&gt;

expertise, we can
fulfill whatever green building wishes are allowed by your budget.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;
And with Ecofutures, you never need to
worry about your whether your builder is familiar with best practices
to

    &lt;/span&gt;Our award-winning record is unmatched.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;ul style=&quot;font-family: Trebuchet MS; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;While
honoring your directives for quality and high performance, Ecofutures
will
fight hard to procure materials and services at the lowest prices
possible.
    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;By working with
Ecofutures, you will have access to a wealth of information about solar
and
efficiency rebates and incentives programs that can save you money, and
make your project as net-zero energy as possible. Many contractors
will be claiming to be capable of meeting
Boulder County&#039;s stringent BuildSmart requirements in a cost-efficient
manner, but Ecofutures is the recognized leader in super-efficient and
healthy
home building.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;30%
less wood and steel, and 20% less labor, are common
savings when building with Advanced Framing practices, derived from the
best of
building science and specified by structural engineers we work with.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;What
is the value of a well-managed project? Our past clients attest to our
Project Managers&#039;
organization,
fast-paced work ethic, dedication, effectiveness, and sense of humor
– people
you actually enjoy working with, and also some of top career lead
carpenters in
the region.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
