Transactional Agents Sustainability Toolkit - Better Buildings Partnership (BBP)

The BBP Transactional Agents Toolkit app provides sales and letting agents with concise, clear information on the key sustainability features of commercial buildings. Transactional agents sit at the heart of activity in the property industry as the brokers who match supply of space with potential occupiers across the markets, and this Toolkit plays a fundamental role in helping to push the green agenda forward. It will also help to improve an agent’s service to clients, generating reputational and competitive advantages. Whilst aimed at sales and letting agents, the Toolkit will prove useful for anyone interested in the sustainability of commercial buildings.

Topics include:
- Energy
- Water
- Waste
- Transport
- CSR
- Ratings
- Regulations

For each building feature, the Toolkit provides a concise description, a summary of advantages and disadvantages, maintenance implications, occupier comfort issues, running costs, questions to consider and much more.

This Toolkit has been developed in collaboration with some of the UK’s largest commercial property owners and property agents, with the aim of providing practical guidance on sustainability issues to help drive a reduction in carbon emissions and other associated adverse environmental impacts in commercial buildings.
