The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) signed into law by President Obama in February provides financial opportunities for homeowners, specifically tax credits, rebates, and loans for improving energy efficiency. The Act also provides tax credits for buying a house and for hybrid and alternative fuel car purchases. The problem is that the 400-page legislation can be tough to work your way through to find what’s available to you.

A new free guide from Green and Save, the Federal Tax Incentive Decoder, distills the legislation down to 11 pages of easy to read information, so homeowners can focus on the next steps for them instead of wading through the official language of the ARRA.

“Green building efficiency expert Charlie Szoradi and his team spent the past several months reading and deciphering this 400-page piece of legislation to create a free resource for homeowners that decodes the Act. This Green Decoder will help homeowners uncover information regarding various energy efficiency improvement tactics they want to pursue, including reducing utility costs, producing power, financing options, buying their first home and/or buying a new car.”
