Member Highlights

My Name:
Courtland Weisleder

What I do:
President

Company Name:
Greener Dawn Inc

What we do:
We provide energy and water efficiency advisory, LEED consulting, and clean tech research and banking. We focus on residential and commercial real estate, clean tech investments, and green financing.

Why I am an NAIOP member:
NAIOP's purpose and mission aligns well with our vision. We are hoping to provide value to NAIOP members with education on the latest sustainable initiatives with ways to lower operating expenses for commercial asset owners.

Proudest Moment:
Building a company called Interactive Financial Marketing Group from 4 employees to 120 with my brother and father. We were lucky enough to execute an exit strategy in June 2007 which validated our hard work over the years.

Biggest Challenge:
Starting a new business in arguably the worst economic time in our country's history. On our third day open in early March, one of my employees brought in the front page of the Wall Street Journal which showed the Dow at its lowest level since 1997. Hopefully we can look back in a few years knowing Greener Dawn started at the bottom of the financial crisis.

Favorite Hobby:
Coaching youth lacrosse as well as playing lacrosse. Only problem is these old bones don't bounce back like they used to from games...
