My proposal~ A building code informative disclosure

I propose having another form that can be used to educate people in the process of dealing with real estate.

The form would disclose the fact that building codes did not require insulation until 1977. The building codes have changed increased the amount of insulation progressively over the years. Energy star home of a given year have more insulation than another house built in the same year.

To make this a little bit more real to people perhaps someone could do a study on what that means and include that as well.

The form should also say that free energy audit can be received from Energy Trust with their contact information.
