The reality is dawning on #reits that without #sustainability their portfolios will become unattractive and OPEX will balloon relative to green competitors in the long term. Here is an example of a #reit leading the market by adopting #renewablestructures that are made possible with #masstimber. Thanks Craig Rawlings.
Andrew Bowerbank, says Cetana #REIT is leading the way in sustainable rental housing with their focus on mixed-use buildings up to seven storeys. The demand for rental housing grows as the housing shortage persists, and Cetana REIT is answering the call with #masstimber as their building material of choice. Not only is it sustainable and has a low carbon footprint, but it is also easy to use. The emphasis on mass timber extends to their height limitation, as a seven-storey ceiling showcases the mass timber beams in a way that would not be possible in taller buildings due to Ontario building regulations. Cetana REIT's goal is to provide sustainable and affordable rental housing, and they are well on their way to achieving it.

Taking a wrecking ball to a five-year-old building is wasteful, and creates waste. We cannot let Australia's cities be overtaken by disposable buildings – where new buildings are built on the cheap, to be knocked down every 20 years or so. We will end up with throwaway cities of junk buildings, as well as an unacceptable environmental cost. Let the word go forth that the era of the disposable buildings is over, and the construction of new low-grade buildings with a short life span will not be tolerated.

These apartments were built just five years ago. Now they’re being demolished

Increase your property value with a green roof! 🌿💰 Green roofs offer substantial benefits to property owners, including increases in property value. Studies have shown that the installation of extensive green roofs can result in a property value increase of 2–5%, while intensive green roofs can yield even higher increases ranging from 10–20%. This translates to an estimated increase of 120–590 € per square meter, depending on the type of green roof installed. Aesthetic improvements are identified as a primary driver of this value appreciation, with access and ownership regimes playing determining roles. Moreover, the aesthetic benefits, such as visual appeal and acoustic improvement, contribute to the overall enhancement of property value, making green roofs a desirable investment for property owners. 🏡 One of the key advantages of extensive green roofs is their minimal operating and maintenance costs compared to intensive green roofs. Operating costs for extensive green roofs typically range from 0.65 to 12.3 € per square meter annually, significantly lower than those associated with intensive green roofs. Also, the lifespan of green roofs, spanning 40 to 55 years, offers long-term financial benefits, further enhancing property value. While the initial investment in green roof installation may be higher, the extended lifespan and reduced maintenance requirements contribute to a favorable cost-benefit outcome over time, making green roofs a financially prudent choice for property owners. 💼 ____________ #greenroofs #sustainability #savings #greenbuilding #linkedin

Bellway Unveils Sustainable Living Oasis at Fallow Wood View, Burgess Hill Bellway invites the public to explore Fallow Wood View, a cutting-edge low-carbon housing development in Burgess Hill. Nestled within the larger Brookleigh scheme, this eco-friendly venture features 247 homes built using advanced Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), presenting a blend of efficiency and sustainability. Departing from conventional blockwork, Fallow Wood View employs timber frames and panels, a progressive approach to construction that aligns with Bellway's commitment to environmentally conscious building practices. Positioned on the eastern stretch of the Brookleigh site, the initial phase of Fallow Wood View spans 13 acres adjacent to Isaacs Lane, encompassing 222 homes along with public spaces like a pocket park and village green, fostering a sense of community. Bellway's dedication to swift, eco-friendly construction methods is evident in this phase. Daniel Williamson, Sales Director for Bellway South London, highlighted the development's sustainability, stating, "Fallow Wood View is a sustainable development where we are constructing all the homes employing quicker modern methods of construction (MMC). This forward-thinking process not only cuts down the build time and improves energy efficiency but also makes use of a more sustainable material in the form of timber." The timber used in construction adheres to Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards, ensuring responsible sourcing practices that preserve biodiversity and support local communities. #bellwayhomes https://lnkd.in/eCkY4v4B

So great to see Australia’s first complete energy retrofit of an apartment block in Naarm, Melbourne! Earlier this year we interviewed Kaia McCarty-Smith from Wilderness Building Co and Emma Carstairs from Resin Property about their motivations, aspirations and experiences delivering this innovative project. Read the interview here: https://lnkd.in/gCPHhyn4 Recent research from Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute (AHURI) on housing in a circular economy outlines key recommendations for policy reform for apartment retrofits, to improve Australia’s current development system: 1. Update Apartment Design Guides (ADGs) for future retrofit: State and territory governments to update ADGs to ensure that the potential for future retrofit is considered before new apartment projects are approved. 2. Additional retrofit grants: All levels of government to introduce additional government grants to incentivise housing retrofit projects. 3. Retrofit repository: Australian Government commitment to fund the development and ongoing operation of an information repository to support the sustainable retrofitting of apartments. 4. Legislative and regulatory amendments for retrofits: State and territory governments to explore legislative and regulatory amendments to encourage and support sustainable retrofit in strata schemes. Access the AHURI research here: https://lnkd.in/guUm_UwX Check out more photos of the retro-fit here: https://lnkd.in/gdhYG4xf

“A study from the American Institute of Architects has found that up to 40% of the nation’s solid waste that ends up in landfills is building waste.” Deconstruction helps the environment by diverting tons of demolished building waste from landfills and repurposing or recycling it.
