  • Statewide Virtual Meeting Wed Mar 1st: Mass Save Program: Huge Energy Rebates and Incentives
    5:00 PM-6:40 PM
    03/01/2023


    During this presentation we’ll pull up the Mass Save website and walk through what’s available. Attendees will learn:

    • How to save substantially (sometimes 100%) on whole-building insulation.
    • How heat pump water heaters are now eligible for rebates even if you replace gas.
    • What options there are for heat pumps.
    • And more!

    If you work for CLEAResult or Mass Save and would like to add yourself as a co-presenter, just reach out! This will be a low-stress website tour without many PowerPoint slides.

    Attendees will leave knowing how to take advantage of business-changing rebates and incentives for the benefit of your bottom line, your renters and our shared climate.

    Blow-in cellulose installed in this multifamily building reduced heating costs and emissions by 30% each. Mass Save paid for 90% of the cost.

    Part of this presentation will be given by Doug Quattrochi, Executive
    Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association’s first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,500 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

  • Longmeadow Dinner Meeting Thu Mar 16th: State Sanitary Code Changes Next Month
    5:30 PM-7:30 PM
    03/16/2023

    700 Wolf Swamp Rd, Longmeadow, MA 01106, USA

    The state sanitary code defines what every apartment in Massachusetts must do and be. Unlike the building code, which is usually inspected only at time of permit completion,
    the state sanitary code applies in all rentals all the time, and can be inspected at any time. Did you know it will be changed in half a dozen major ways starting April 1?

    Few units are fully compliant as-is. We’ll review the new code in easy-to-understand detail and help you get a sense of where you may need to make repairs or improvements.

    The state sanitary code is your biggest liability in a nonpayment situation, where a renter is being taken to court. They will be
    able to counterclaim based on the condition of the apartment. If you anticipate having any kind of conflict resolution process
    with a renter, it’s critical that your apartment is fully up to code and your position is one of blamelessness.

    “This is my second time participating in the sanitary code session, and I still learned something new that we need to address in our building.” -Beatrice

    “Presentation was VERY informative and thorough.” -Carol

    Your problem or theirs? The state sanitary code holds occupants responsible for some things, and landlords responsible for most everything else
