WHY Buy Now?
Right now housing prices are the lowest they have been in years, however we don’t know when the prices will start to rise again. Waiting on the prices to fall further may not be the best strategy either since “the government has proposed a tightening of lending standards called Quality Residential Mortgage (QRM)”. If the QRM is passed it will make the loan qualification process more difficult as well as cause an increase in loan costs.

With housing prices and interest rates falling, right now owning is cheaper than renting in 80% of markets. Wouldn’t you rather buy a home and build equity than throw away your money month after month on rent?

30-Year Mortgage Rates are at ALL TIME LOWS!

A conventional mortgage on a $250,000 home at a rate of 6.5% vs. 4.5% (today) would cost you over $250.00 per month more! This adds up to almost $90,000.00 in additional interest costs over the life of the loan! Can you afford to lose out on this opportunity?

  
Experience the difference!

Builders are rolling out the red carpet for their customers these days. The Customer is King, now more than ever before. Custom changes-no problem! Don't miss out on the chance to have a great buying experience with a customer focused builder before they get too busy to go that extra mile!

  
Quality Counts

Homes built in slower housing markets are constructed with more care and by more highly talented craftsman. A lot was overlooked in the days of "How fast can we build?"-not on purpose of course, but at the break-neck pace of a few years ago, builders just didn't have the time to be picky. Now builders are able to be a lot more "hands on" and make sure proper attention is paid to the details. Additionally, a lighter workload for subcontractors means that employers have retained only their best tradesman, which in effect “weeds out" the amateurs-AND THE DIFFERENCE SHOWS.


Made in the U.S.A!

With the housing industry comprising 1/5 of America's GDP, it's no wonder the economy is struggling.  Most Americans feel a patriotic draw toward buying American made products, but does it really make a difference? Think about this-virtually ALL of the dollars spent building and buying a new home stay in your local community. Now that's what I call a stimulus package (where it counts)!

Hours & Location:
At Lexington Villas, we give daily tours of our models and homes under construction. Our business hours are 11:00am-6:00pm Monday – Saturday and 1:00pm-6:00pm on Sundays. We are always happy to give a tour and look forward to seeing you.
