Efficient Buildings: The Key to Combating Climate Change.

World Climate Day invites us to reflect on the importance of taking care of our planet and how our daily actions impact the environment. In a world where the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly evident, sustainability has become a central focus across all sectors, including real estate.

At Amat Immobiliaris, we understand that the decisions we make today can make a difference for future generations. That is why we want to share with you how the real estate sector can contribute to climate care and how we, as a company, are committed to sustainability.

1. Efficient Buildings: The Key to a Sustainable Future

Buildings are responsible for approximately 40% of global energy consumption. However, with technological advancements and smart architectural design, it is possible to construct and manage properties that consume less energy and emit fewer greenhouse gases.

At Amat, we promote the buying/selling of properties with high energy efficiency standards, which not only benefit the planet but also the pockets of owners and tenants. Properties with thermal insulation, LED lighting systems, or renewable energy installations are examples of how buildings can be more efficient and sustainable.

Did you know that an efficient building can reduce energy consumption by up to 30%? These types of properties not only protect the environment but also increase their long-term value.

2. Investing in Sustainability: A Smart Choice

Sustainability is not just an environmental necessity but also an economic opportunity. Investing in properties designed with sustainable criteria has multiple benefits:

Higher Demand: More and more buyers and tenants are looking for spaces that reduce their environmental impact.
Cost Reduction: Properties with efficient systems consume fewer resources, reducing daily expenses.
Increased Value: Sustainable properties have a competitive advantage in the market.

If you’re thinking of investing, we invite you to consider projects that incorporate green technologies, such as solar panels, rainwater harvesting systems, or recycled materials. These investments not only have a positive impact on the planet but also on your assets.

3. Properties in Green Environments: Quality of Life

A green environment is not only healthier but also more valuable. Properties located in areas that respect the environment, such as those with parks, gardens, and sustainable recreational spaces, offer a better quality of life for their inhabitants.

In our property portfolio, we have various options for living surrounded by a green environment.

Living in a place where greenery predominates not only improves health but also contributes to global climate balance.

4. Sustainable Communities

Beyond individual homes, it is essential to think about sustainable communities. These communities include practices such as:

Green Roofs
Waste Management
Urban Gardens
Solar Panels

At Amat, we offer our efficient buildings service (AmatZonia). We are committed to a more efficient and sustainable real estate market for everyone. We are aware that building efficiency is a key factor in the asset value of any property. That is why we have designed the AmatZonia program, a specific advisory service dedicated to improving the energy efficiency of buildings. Sustainability is not only an environmental responsibility but also a smart investment that can increase the value of your property.

Building a Greener Future

Climate change is a global challenge but also an opportunity to create a better world. Every decision counts, and at Amat Immobiliaris, we are here to help you make real estate decisions that benefit both your life and the environment, because at Amat, we are always here.

Today is World Climate Day, but every day is a new opportunity to build a more sustainable future. If you’re interested in learning more about efficient buildings to combat climate change, efficient properties, sustainable projects, or how to invest responsibly, contact us today.
