How BrownGround Works


We are the leading internet resource for the environmentally challenged property industry available on the web. We have created an easy to use website where users can browse or post listings in various categories:

  • Property Listings – Sites that have real or perceived contamination, have a value-add component or are underperforming assets. These include but are not limited to landfills, scrap yards, dilapidated office buildings, gas stations, vacant land, oil fields, etc.
  • Equipment – In order to purchase, remediate (clean up) and redevelop these sites, professionals need to have all the equipment available on the market for use. Our intention is to allow users to post new and or used equipment for lease/sale in their prospective local markets, or go nationwide for more sophisticated equipment. BrownGround also believes in the power of recyclables: components of the physical assets of a building (concrete, steel, HVAC equipment, etc.) for resale on recycle markets and/or functioning assets of manufacturing sites (transformers, vessels/reactors, centrifuges) for rebuild in tertiary markets.
  • Jobs – Many careers are available in this Industry. The Environmentally challenged property market is a small but competitive market place in which many employers are looking for the best and brightest engineers, attorneys, real estate professionals, etc. to assist them in reaching their goals of preserving the environment, redeveloping eye sores and creating viable live/work communities.
  • Businesses for Sale – As the most comprehensive user driven interface on the web for the Environmental Industry, and as our economic conditions fluctuate; we believe that there will be many opportunities for entities to divest , purchase or start business interests that will meet various needs in the market place. Don’t feel intimidated, these interests can be small/mid/large cap companies and/or start-ups looking for angel investing.
  • Promotion of Conferences – Municipalities, Quasi –Governmental Agencies, State and Local governments and for-profit organization will all have the opportunity to promote their conferences and trade-shows on this website. As we provide the platform for these entities to transact various assets, BrownGround believes that this is the perfect opportunity to mass market your event to local and national audiences.

Each of these categories may be browsed on a state by state basis according to various subcategories we felt were most pertinent to what users are posting and looking for.

You may notice banner ads on both sides of the middle portion of your search page. BrownGround, in its mission of creating a one-stop resource for this industry, has insured that each state has at least one state/quasi-governmental partner that can be contacted for incentive programs, tax rebates, and questions regarding regulations/legislation in your particular state. On the flip side, of course, BrownGround allows paying advertisers to offer their services to you by virtue of simple and subtly placed banner ads that you are available to click to find out more about their services.
