Smarter Living

Homes that cost less to live in.


Energy-upgraded rental homes in Connecticut and North Carolina. Each home is planned for comfort, healthy air and low utility bills, and managed by people who know how it works.

Inside the homes

Upgraded where it counts.

We invest in the parts of a home that drive comfort and monthly costs. Features vary by home; each listing names what's installed.

  • Ducted and ductless heat pumps
  • Heat pump water heaters
  • Insulation and air sealing
  • Solar PV and battery storage
  • Electric vehicle charging access
  • Induction cooking
  • ENERGY STAR appliances
  • Smart controls and monitoring
  • Stormwater management
  • Native plantings

Why we built it

Closing the split incentive.

In most rentals, the tenant pays the utility bills and the owner pays for upgrades, so the building rarely improves. Smarter Living closes that gap. We own the long-term performance of each home, so we invest in it, and residents feel the difference in comfort and bills.
