What is the correct order of documentation flow in LEED for Homes?

• A. Owner -> Green Rater -> LEED for Homes Provider -> USGBC/GBCI
• B. Green Rater -> Owner -> LEED for Homes Provider -> USGBC/GBCI
• C. Owner -> Green Rater -> LEED for Homes Provider -> USGBC/GBCI
• D. USGBC/GBCI -> LEED for Homes Provider -> Green Rater -> Owner

Answer: (C)

The flow begins with the owner who initiates the project and gathers the necessary documentation. Next, the Green Rater conducts on-site verification and prepares the required LEED for Homes documents. Then the LEED for Homes Provider collects the verified information and submits it to USGBC/GBCI. Finally, USGBC/GBCI reviews the submission and issues the certification. This sequence ensures verification happens before submission and that a provider serves as the intermediary between on-site verification and the certification body.
