At Leaf, we are a sustainability consultancy that partners with real estate developers, construction firms, and investment funds across Peru, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Panama, and other countries in Latin America and Africa to secure international green building certifications.
We manage LEED, EDGE, WELL, FITWEL, and Bono MiVivienda Sostenible (BMS) certification processes from start to finish, reducing energy and water consumption, increasing asset value, and accelerating project sales and leasing. With over 300 certified projects, we ensure every development meets the world’s most rigorous sustainability standards without incurring extra costs or project delays.
“What we liked most about working with LEAF on the certification of our project was their extensive knowledge of all aspects of the project. They don’t only focus on architecture, but view the project as a whole, which helps ensure everything is aligned with what we were aiming for.”
“What we liked most about working with LEAF on the certification of our project was their constant support and guidance throughout the process—from administrative matters such as drafting the purchase agreement and contracts with contractors, to the selection of suitable finishes for excellent building performance, as well as continuous technical review of the project.”
“What we liked most about working with LEAF on the certification of our project was their willingness to provide support, their fast response times, and that the initially defined objectives were fully achieved.”
Benefits include reduced interest rates for the developer and the buyer, as well as tax reductions in some countries.
They vary depending on the certification, but in general the most important indicators are: energy savings, water savings, sustainable material selection, indoor environmental quality, and location (which impacts how people move in relation to the project).
Leaf specializes in sustainability certifications and supports the entire process with clear guidance, ready-to-use documentation, and expert technical support. We work with multiple international standards and accelerate the achievement of certifications without rework.
They increase the speed of sale or lease of projects, improve loan rates due to sustainability benefits, and strengthen the developer’s brand.
The ideal time to start is during the design stage (concept design or detailed design), but it is also possible to join during construction or operations.
