Real estate agents spend a lot of time in their cars, driving to and from houses and closings, and all of that driving takes its toll on the environment. All of that gas, not to mention the emissions created by those vehicles, is not good for the environment in Houston. That’s why Houston Real Estate Broker Bill Edge has committed to helping the Houston Real estate market and the local community not only by providing superior real estate services, but also by driving an energy efficient Chevrolet Volt.
Environment Versus Status Symbol
When you see real estate professionals driving around town, partially when they are associated with some of the larger real estate companies located in the Greater Houston area, you’ll often see them in a BMW, Lexus or other status-symbol vehicle. Perhaps they want to impress their clients by showing how much money they can spend, or maybe they think it will show that they are a “success.”
When you work with Bill Edge’s team of agents, you won’t find your agent showing up in a flashy Mercedes. We believe that it’s not about impressing clients with the amount you can spend on a car. Rather, we believe in doing our part to help the community and protect the environment.
Because of this, we took a chance and bought a 2011 Chevrolet Volt when it first came out. With our Volt, we can drive an average of 900 miles between fill-ups and can drive without the need to use gas for a full 38 miles. For many jobs our inner loop agents handle, this means they don’t need any gas at all, because they stay well within that radius. The Volt provides a comfortable, quiet ride for our clients without an unnecessary drain on vital environmental resources.
Not only does the Chevrolet Volt show our commitment to the environment, but it also shows our commitment to the community. The Volt is made in America, and we are proud to support American businesses and purchase American-made products.
Committed to the Environment And Our Clients
A Lexus or BMW doesn’t help you negotiate a better real estate deal, but the right agent will. At Man-Edge Properties, this same level of commitment we show to the environment is given to every client we help. If you are shopping for a home in Houston or placing your property for sale, trust the team that doesn’t just talk about commitment, but is willing to show it, all the way down to the vehicle we drive.
