The current programs are identified, with emphasis at the local level, that have been implemented to promote energy efficiency in rental property markets. Various factors that influence the success of these local programs are analyzed. The issues of availability of financing on reasonable terms, efficiency and appropriateness of various tax incentives, value of information dissemination, regulatory considerations, technological barriers, and other beneficial or deterimental factors are extensively discussed.
