AHEAD OF
THE CURVE
Our projects continue to outperform comparable properties, command above-market sales prices and have received numerous awards.
By committing to the highest green industry standards of ESG, we increase growth opportunities and performance markers, attracting socially conscious investors and partners.
ESG - The New Green Standard
OUR STRATEGY
LOCATION
Determine strategic locations with close proximity to lifestyle amenities, employment centers and education.
DESIGN
Thoughtful design incorporates environment, materials and textures to create architecturally unique living spaces.
TECHNOLOGY
Leveraging building sciences to enhance lifestyle and reduce energy consumption increasing investor returns.
THE MODUS WAY
We achieve our energy efficiency goals by reducing consumption through integrated design and utilizing energy-efficient building materials and technologies. Our buildings produce all or most of the required power through solar.
Some more examples are highlighted below.
SOLAR
PANELS
Rooftop solar panels provide all energy needed to power each home.
SPRAY FOAM
INSULATION
Can reduce heating/cooling costs by 20-30% and seals the building from air leaks.
LED
LIGHTING
Uses up to 90% less energy and lasts up to 25x longer than traditional incandescent bulbs.
MINI SPLIT
A/C UNITS
Allows for individual room controls and can save as much as 30% on energy bills.
HYBRID HOT WATER HEATERS
Can save more than $300 a year compared to a conventional electric water heater.
UNRIVALED APPROACH
-
MODUS uses its knowledge and experience to build high performance residences that cost the same or less that traditional buildings to achieve better-than-market margin and returns.
-
The Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index is the industry standard by which a home’s energy efficiency is measured. It’s also the nationally recognized system for measuring a home’s energy performance.
-
MODUS utilizes the HERS Index along with energy modeling tools and its proprietary database of building products to cost effectively value energy saving materials and processes.
-
A Net Zero Energy (NZE) building is one that produces as much energy as it consumes on an annual basis.
-
MODUS has produced projects that have achieved NZE status with the Department of Energy.
-
MODUS is one of the nation’s leaders in constructing high performance dwellings.
-
MODUS homes are typically a 40-50 HERS score before adding solar.
