Key Quotes:

• A net-zero house, or a net-zero-ready house, is a house that, for the future, allows the energy consumption to be low enough that an alternate system like a solar system can actually provide the ancillary energy needed that the building doesn’t consume in terms of thermal performance. ~Mark
• We have to create houses that are stunningly efficient and really durable; but the only way to do that is to really focus on how the building enclosure is more than just an enclosure. It’s a place for family and it’s a place for comfort. ~Mark
• A net-zero home creates as much energy as it consumes. ~Renee
• The more we educate the public on net-zero homes, the more that they’re going to gravitate to it, and it doesn’t have to be mandated by the government. ~Brad

Another amazing conversation with Ken Clinton of Intrepid Powerboats, where if you can dream it, they can build it.

Intrepid Powerboats are THE boating industry innovators, and while they are the genius artists that bring the industry-setting innovations to life, as Ken discusses, it's their customers, those of the Intrepid Nation (60% of which own multiple Intrepids, quite a testament), that bring the concepts, the ideas to Ken and his incredible team. Ken discusses some of the most amazing Intrepid "firsts" in this excellent podcast.  

Intrepid Powerboats don’t make boats the way they could be made, they make them the way they should be made. One at a time and to the discerning specifications of our customers. No other boat company so carefully and proudly reflects the unique desires of each individual owner in every boat. Because at Intrepid, you call the shots. And it’s why they can, and will, personalize your Intrepid any way you want it. Combined with their advanced composite construction, each boat is not only unique to its owner but is stronger and stiffer, faster and more fuel-efficient to deliver the safest, smoothest, driest-ride on the water.

An amazing conversation with the unparalleled, exceptional, leading luxury realtor, Cindy Ambuehl of Compass Real Estate Los Angeles, at one of the most unique moments in time in the history of luxury real estate. CindyAmbuelGroup.com.

Cindy Ambuehl is arguably LA’s most sought-after real estate professional, consistently ranking as a top producer in one of the world’s most competitive luxury markets while retaining the trust of the area’s savviest homebuyers, sellers, and fellow agents. A familiar face who spent 20 years in the entertainment industry as a prominent actress and model, Cindy now leverages her natural ability to connect with people—not to mention her impressive capacity for negotiation and executing mutually rewarding business deals—as a full-time agent, helping clients buy and sell the most luxurious properties the greater Los Angeles area has to offer.

A longtime resident of Los Angeles, Cindy’s extensive knowledge of the area’s most coveted luxury communities also played a role in driving her rapid career trajectory. But what continues to set her apart is her unwavering work ethic, along with her tenacity and drive. In the early days of Cindy’s real estate career, when the real estate industry was at one of the lowest points in recent memory, she still managed to rank among the top 1% of real estate professionals nationwide — and she’s only gained momentum since. In 2017, she ranked #20 in California and #40 in the nation as measured by sales volume, closing almost $160 million in sales that year alone. Named one of Hollywood’s Top 30 Real Estate Agents by The Hollywood Reporter and recognized by Variety as one of the “Showbiz Real Estate Elite,” Cindy repeatedly earns a spot on Real Trends’ annual “The Thousand” and countless other accolades.

A resident of Santa Monica who, together with her husband, actor Don Diamont, has seven boys, Cindy still manages to find the time to give back. She’s actively involved with several charitable organizations, including Giveback Homes, The Humane Society, and P.S. Arts.
