• Tip sheets for spotting household energy "hogs" and moisture and mold problems, and how to identify a remedy
• Financing options such as the FHA Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM), as well as state and other financing programs that may be available to help pay for improvements at the time of purchase or refinance
