From a Coaching client:

“Jim is not only smart, personable and creative, he is also hard working, efficient, and honorable – he does what he says he will do.  I hired Jim to help me clarify the intended path for my ‘green’ commercial real estate investment business, and some very powerful realizations  ~ and clear direction ~ emerged as an outgrowth from 2-3 months of consultation with me.  I highly recommend his services!  You will not be disappointed.”

“Jim has been contributing to the BiggerPockets Blog for over a year now.  He approached me with an interest in sharing his knowledge with our readers, and once I got to know him, I gladly welcomed him on board.  He has done an incredible job in educating our audience in green real estate topics, and has even convinced some serious skeptics.  Jim is professional, courteous, smart, and most important in my book, reliable.  I highly recommend Jim to anyone who is looking for help in greening their real estate business, and improving their bottom line as a result.”

“Jim’s speech on green real estate investing was great.  I really enjoyed his approach to ‘green’ and his explanation of why ‘green’ should increase profits for investors, not costs.  He backed it up with actual client examples which was great to see.  As the CEO of a real estate investment company I am always looking for a competitive advantage and Jim’s talk really opened my eyes to this opportunity”

“I have seen a lot of presentations from “green” consultants.   Jim’s was by far the most informative, and most relevant to the investor-buyer.  His approach helps cut through the confusion regarding rebates and incentives.  By using Jim’s methods, you can actually reduce the cost of the rehab, increase potential returns and be environmentally consicious the whole time.  Thanks Jim!”

“I really was pretty clueless about what ‘green’ was and how it tied into real estate investing until I saw Jim Simcoe speak at an event a few weeks back.  Jim really breaks everything down to the newbie investor level and explains what “green” can do for any business (especially real estate) and also why “green” works right now in this market.  When you see the supply versus
demand it’s pretty astonishing and the opportunity is huge”

“After listening to Jim’s presentation on sustainability, I feel now that I have a better understanding of how we can lessen our impact on the planet. The material was interesting, informative and his knowledge of the subject matter was excellent. I would go out of my way to hear him speak again.”

“The talk I attended on green living given by Jim Simcoe was incredibly helpful. He offered tips that I could use easily and simple life style adjustments I could make as soon as I got home. His passion and enthusiasm for the topic is contagious. It is apparent that this is a way of life for him; and that he is not only concerned with the health of the earth for today, but for “the next seven generations” as well!”
Kisha Sivers

“I learned so many important ways to live as ecologically by Jim Simcoe. His lecture about eco living was excellent. I’m eager to change my life with his advice. The life style that Jim taught us was incredible and wonderful and beautiful. I’d love to continue to learn more about green life from him.”

“I felt so educated and inspired after I left Jim Simcoe’s green living talk that I shared his tips for green living with my family and co-workers. He is knowledgeable, personable, and relatable and his speech was absolutely stimulating in regards to sustainability. It was an educational experience that I wish everyone interested in conserving our resources could have exposure to.”
