| 10 Reasons To Buy From A Local New Home Builder | | 04/27/2010 | 10 Reasons to Buy From A Local New Home Builder
Consumers typically make purchase decisions largely based on two factors- price and convenience but many factors deserve consideration. Buying local is one of them- after all, it’s your town!
WARRANTIES
Do your homework before purchasing a new home. Check the track record through a search engine like Google. Wouldn’t you rather get local assistance from your local builder? Pre-inspecting from the start of your new home to the end is the key. Check to see the quality steps and care taken during the building process.
THE ECONOMY
Regional or national builders use a minimum of local goods and services. Profits are transferred out of the local area. Local businesses invest, hire and spend locally. Local ownership minimizes the risk of economic catastrophe and Local builders are unlikely to outsource functions outside the local area or move out of the area once their inventory is gone.
LOCAL JOB CREATION
Locally owned builders hire local. Providing jobs to your neighbors improves the vitality of your community. For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $45 stays in the local economy, creating jobs and expanding the local tax base. For every $100 spent at a regional or national builder, only $14 remains in the community.
NEIGHBORHOOD & COMMUNITY
Where we shop, where we eat and where we spend leisure time makes our neighborhood home. One-of-a-kind, independent businesses are an integral part of what makes our neighborhood a great place to live. Big Box businesses can alter the unique character of the community. When they do, it’s not necessarily for the better.
COMMUNITY VITALITY
Local business owners, have a substantial interest in the community’s long-term health. They rarely threaten to relocate in order to receive tax, zoning, environmental or other regulatory concessions. They frequently serve on local boards, and support numerous causes; contributing more than twice as much to charitable causes as corporate chains. And local business owners are generally much more accessible.
COMMUNITY CHARACTER
Local residents place a high value on individuality and consider homegrown independent businesses a source of pride. When asked to name a favorite restaurant, cafe, or shop, it’s typically a unique local business. Communities that preserve and support their unique, one-of-a-kind businesses and distinctive character are more likely to attract entrepreneurs and new investment, new residents and visitors.

| | 5 Reason's Why To Buy A New Home Now! | | 12/09/2009 | Five Reason’s To Buy A New Home Now!
If you’ve been waiting for home prices or interest rates to fall further before you buy a home, it’s time to rethink your strategy. If you act soon, you’ll be able to take advantage of historically low prices and interest rates that won’t be around forever. And if you’re a first-time buyer and you act very SOON, you can still take advantage of the TAX CREDIT. Here are five reasons to take advantage NOW!
1. You may get a fat tax credit.
The first-time homebuyer’s tax credit is in most cases worth 10% of the home’s purchase price..
2. Prices are scraping bottom.
It’s hard to know whether prices are as low as they’ll go, but the housing market is showing signs of life.
3. Foreclosures are at record highs.
Buyers think foreclosures are a great deal until they see them in person and realize that often, they need a lot of work.
4. Rates are cheap.
If there’s a silver lining to the recession, it’s that interest rates will stay low. If you can qualify for a mortgage on the home you want at today’s rate, holding out for a slightly lower rate is probably a fool’s errand. And, if inflation resurges, locking in today’s interest rate (and mortgage payment) will look brilliant in hindsight.
5. Demand is growing
In some areas, competition for deals can be fierce. A good new home at a good price will get multiple offers and sell quickly. What’s a good house? It’s new, clean, it shows well, and it’s in a good neighborhood in a good school district.

| | House votes to expand homebuyer tax credit | | 11/05/2009 | House votes to expand homebuyer tax credit!
Washinton --Buying a home is about to get cheaper for a whole new crop of homebuyers - $6,500 cheaper.
First-time homebuyers have been getting tax credits of up to $8,000 since January as part of the economic stimulus package enacted earlier this year. But with the program scheduled to expire at the end of November, the House voted 403-12 Thursday to extend and expand the tax credit to include many buyers who already own homes. The Senate approved the measure Wednesday, and the White House said President Barack Obama would sign it Friday.
Buyers who have owned their current homes at least five years would be eligible for tax credits of up to $6,500. First-time homebuyers - or anyone who hasn’t owned a home in the last three years - would still get up to $8,000. To qualify, buyers in both groups have to sign a purchase agreement by April 30, 2010, and close by June 30.
"This is probably the last extension," said Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., a former real estate executive who championed the credits.
