WELCOME TO THE THIRD EDITION OF Homes of South Jersey™ – Atlantic City Weekly’s Real Estate Magazine. Whether you are looking to purchase a summer home or a year-round residence at the Jersey Shore, this Fall edition of our quarterly publication, Homes of South Jersey™ will be a helpful tool.

The real estate agents, developers and mortgage professionals who advertise or are mentioned in this publication can provide you with excellent advice on how and when to buy or sell your home at the Jersey Shore. Homes of South Jersey™ was designed to extend the success of Atlantic City Weekly’s Real Estate section, which has grown dramatically in the past few years, making AC Weekly one of the region’s premier sources for real estate information. While Atlantic City Weekly offers real estate feature stories, transaction listings for Atlantic and Cape May counties and news items, this supplemental guide delivers a magazine with high-end ads and content unlike anything found elsewhere in this market. The next Homes of South Jersey™ magazine will be published in May, 2008. To reserve space in that publication or to advertise in Atlantic City Weekly, contact Kathy Heery at 609-646-4848, ext. 16.

Resort Country Club Seasonal Park AMPGROUNDS WERE SPRINGING UP LIKE mushrooms in the late ’60s. On any given night you could find a caravan of campers motoring on the Garden State Parkway. First they came with tents and pop-ups. Soon thereafter it was eight-wide trailers and then 35-foot tag-alongs. Property in New Jersey was so affordable in those days that young folks purchased large parcels in the serene wooded environs just off the Jersey Shore. The trend gradually changed over the years. Instead of packing, unpacking and towing a large recreational vehicle, they rented seasonal sites. And, just like that, they had a home at the shore for a fraction of the cost. If you think you can’t afford to live at the shore, think again.
C
Resort Country Club’s Chalet model starts at $120,000. Many models are available for well under $100,000.
Seasonal lots are now the standard in this booming industry, which represents 72 percent of the New Jersey tourist dollar. That transition has now exploded to a whole new level where camping isn’t camping anymore. Today, luxury units in seasonal parks are capturing the attention of young and old alike. These seasonal sites appeal to the middle class, who can now afford a second home at the shore. Now, you can get seven months at a seasonal park for the cost of a one-week summer rental in the beach town of your choice. Resort Country Club Seasonal Park is on the leading edge of this trend, offering sensational deals on park models and chalets. Finding a housing development with a large lake, clubhouse, swimming pool snack bar, arcade, playground and planned activities is not that easy. Add to that a home at the shore for under $100,000 and you have a new market of people who are ready to enjoy life and still have plenty of disposable income. Campgrounds are known to have the finest property available in the state. This new resort concept attracts people from every walk of life. The “trailer park” image is a thing of the past. If you enjoy getting away, spending a day at the beach, a night on the town at any of seven outstanding beach towns within 30 minutes, that home at the shore you thought you could never afford is here. For more information call 1-800982-3404 or visit www.resortcampground.com.

The Carolina Homes H E H O M E O F Y OU R D R EA MS I S WI T HI N RE A C H at the Carolina Homes. With the majority of New Jersey’s shore communities fully built and far from affordable, a developer has taken notice of the investments over the past 10 years in Atlantic City’s casino and retail market, and has steadily been making an impact on the residential landscape. Throughout the city, Procida Realty & Construction has transformed vacant and neglected lots into bright and busy new neighborhoods. “Why should this land, in a residential zone just blocks from the beach, sit vacant, when we can build new homes, and new communities for families to enjoy all this city has to offer,” says Christine Procida, a principal of Procida Realty & Construction. “We’re excited about Atlantic City’s residential market. It has proven to be a strong market for families earning between $50,000 and $100,000 per year and is quickly developing itself into a hot new shore community.” With a track record of over 75 yeas of real estate and construction experience, Procida Realty & Construction is bringing charm, comfort and quality to the residential market, creating a new standard for quality-built family homes in Atlantic City. Procida, a national award-winning builder in New York and New Jersey, has already successfully built and sold over 200 homes in Atlantic City and has plans for another 350 over the next three years. The Carolina Homes offers a wonderful opportunity to invest in
T
your future and be a part of Atlantic City’s modern renaissance. The Carolina Homes offer two tastefully designed, full-featured models, each a quintessential American homestead with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, solid construction, beautiful details, landscaping, and much more. The handsome designs evoke the feeling of the arts & crafts period. The neighborhood plan is pedestrian-friendly, with yards and garden space, and rear-facing driveways for off-street parking. The Carolina Homes were designed for comfort, convenience and affordability without sacrificing quality or features. With only nine homes left in this community of 44, the developer is now offering the last of the Carolina Homes at close-out prices, starting at $269,900. With special financing programs for qualified buyers, the Carolina Homes staff can help make your dreams come true — with all the financial and lifestyle benefits that come with owning your own home. To learn more about the Carolina Homes, or the residential market in Atlantic City, call Procida Realty & Construction, at (609) 340-8587, stop by their furnished model located at 301 N. North Carolina Avenue in Atlantic City, or visit www.procidarealty.com.
Lakes Bay Living N THE ROARING TWENTIES, A SOCIALITE THE MEDIA called “the poor little rich girl” because of her troubled life, sat in her mansion overlooking Lake’s Bay in West Atlantic City. Barbara Hutton, daughter of the co-founder of the E. F. Hutton Company and granddaughter of the founder of the Woolworth’s department stores, was one of the few people able to enjoy this magnificent view. Her financial status as one of the wealthiest women in the world made it possible for her to entertain stars such as Rudolph Valentino at this summer retreat known as the “Sand Castle” or “Bahia Vista.” Now, a few hundred yards down the Black Horse Pike, a new community will enable numerous families to view the same grand vista. The Matzel and Mumford Organization (a K. Hovnanian company) is developing Bayport on Lake’s Bay, a new Jersey Shore waterfront community that will feature 131 threestory townhomes, each with two bedrooms, three and a half baths and more than 2,150 square feet of luxury living space. Prices start in the low-$300,000 range, according to the Hazlet, N.J.-based developer. Pre-construction sales are underway. The builders are seeing great response to the community. “Bayport has quickly emerged as one of the most sought after addresses in Atlantic County,” says Glenn Ward, vice president

Why Join Sellstate? The following testimonials are from real estate professionals who have benefitted from being a part of the Sellstate Realty Systems network. To inquire about joining Sellstate Innovative Realty, call (609) 383-3180 or visit www.joinsellstate.com. “The support from Sellstate Realty Systems Network has helped me meet the challenges often associated with opening a business. Sellstate’s franchise opportunity opened my eyes to the most exciting and innovative ways to help Agents and Brokers like myself earn more profit! The training is groundbreaking for advancing the careers of Agents while at the same time enhancing customer service needs. I think the Sellstate concept has the most opportunity the Real Estate industry has seen in years ... Since we purchased our Franchise, we have successfully built our office to 65 agents in only two years. The business model has created a “buzz” in the real estate community and we are excited about the opportunity to offer this to Realtors!” — Shari Tomasini Sellstate Innovative Atlantic City, NJ “Sellstate’s training has been the best. It’s been very helpful for my business as far as getting me to the level where I want to be, which is at the top.” — Cindy Roper
Liberty Mortgage IBERTY MORTGAGE SERVICES, INC. IS NOT A company that takes loan applications that end up in a circular file. They fully screen and educate clients so they are completely prepared to own their homes successfully. Liberty Mortgage is proud to say that they are very close to having a zero-percent default rate with their clients. Because of the abuse throughout the banking industry that took place within the past few years, many of the wonderful programs Liberty Mortgage had available to help those clients who really “qualified” get into homes with no money out of their pockets are either no longer available or program guidelines have tightened up making it very difficult for borrowers to get to the settlement table. Liberty Mortgage Services, Inc., however, is still able to help people own their homes with either very little or no money down. It’s the trust they built with their investors that has made some of these programs still available to them.

“What I love most about [Sellstate] is the training that our broker offers to us. This training is not only through our broker or in office but also through our University, Sellstate University, which is provided online ... In my first month I made $19,000 in this company! I made three times more than what I would make in another company.” — Spartak Dulaj “[Sellstate’s training] is second to none because it’s geared to the agent — for actual selling. It’s not the preprogrammed ‘this is what you need to do today’ with 4,200 things to do. Sellstate really has the professional training that most agents really need to take advantage of. I chose Sellstate because I had been with Re/Max and Sellstate offered a bright, new, really new concept for selling real estate, so that I could be in business and not be working for the company.” — Linda Flack “[The high commission split] puts more money in my pocket. I don’t understand a lot of these agents that work on the older traditional pay model. They split half their income with their broker. With us [Sellstate], we have minimal fees, gives me a lot more freedom. I make a lot more money.” — Roger Jackson 10

Looks Like a Million PECTACULAR ARCHITECHTURAL DESIGN ANDcraftsmanship make the Hemmingway a genuine work of art. The phrase, “There’s no place like home” has taken on new meaning with the opening of the jaw-dropping Hemmingway model at Whispering Woods in Port Republic, a walled community of just nine custom luxury homes from Cornerstone Communities, LLC. “Cornerstone operates on the principle that second best is unacceptable,” said the company’s president Mark Dellinger, and it shows in every inch and all three stories of this luxurious model home. The Hemmingway model “Buyers shopping for million dollar homes deserve to be discerning, and Whispering Woods will not disappoint.” The nine wooded home sites at Whispering Woods range in size from five to seven acres. Home plans range from 4,500 to 7,000 square feet and can be completely customized to fit each homebuyer’s needs, expectations and lifestyle. Founded four years ago, Cornerstone Communities has earned a reputation as one of the region’s foremost custom builders.

A ‘One-Stop Shop’ For all Your Loan Needs INDA D’AGOSTINO HAS BEEN A PART OF Cape Savings Bank’s Residential Loan Team since October 1996 and serves the Atlantic County region. Her experience and knowledge of the residential loan market and the territory she covers enable her to determine what loan programs are best suited for her customers’ specific situations. Linda is known for her unflappable drive and, when necessary, quick resolutions that keep the loan process smooth and timely. The realtors and builders know that by entrusting Linda with their customers, the best level of customer service will be provided – from application through closing. She consistently monitors feedback from her customers to ensure that she is maintaining a high level of customer service, a process which does not end at the closing table. She knows the best referral will result from her existing satisfied customers and contacts. Linda is a proud member of the Cape Savings Bank President’s Club for exceeding sales goals. She is involved with various efforts sponsored through the Cape Savings Bank Cape Cares program, including Habitat for Humanity, Disabilities Resource Center and The American Diabetes Association, all of which are organizations that support local community efforts.

ILL THOMAS JOINED THE CAPE SAVINGS Bank Residential Loan Team in November of 2006 and is based in the Cape May Court House office. He has concentrated his efforts on developing relationships with existing Cape Savings Bank customers, and area realtors and builders. Since his background includes both residential loan sales and title company experience, he is able to provide a complete understanding of the process, and confidently guide his customers through every step, up to and including post closing. The moment you walk into Bill’s office, you’re aware that he is an avid fisherman, Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies fan(atic). That same enthusiasm and dedication is also evident in the excellent customer service that he provides to all who deal with him. In the short time Bill has been with Cape Savings Bank, he has participated in numerous events sponsored by the Cape Savings Bank Cape Cares program, which supports local community efforts, including the annual MS Walk in Ocean City.

INA TUBERTINI JOINED THE RESIDENTIAL LOAN Team in December of 2003, and covers the Cape May County area. As part of her everyday routine, she continues to reinforce, further develop and expand relationships with our local realtors, builders and title companies for Cape Savings Bank. Anyone who has dealt with her is immediately aware of her dedication to understanding and focusing on her customers’ needs, so that she can determine the best loan options for them to consider. She was awarded membership in the President’s Club for exceeding her sales goals. Gina’s best day is sitting at the closing table with her customers, and hearing from them how much they appreciate her commitment to making the entire loan process simple and painless from start to finish. Gina is very active with the Cape May County Association of Realtors. She serves on the Association’s Golf Committee and has been selected to serve as the Affiliate Director for the 2008 Board of Directors. She is on the Board of Directors of Animal Outreach of Cape May County and serves on the Membership Committee of the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce. She serves on the Cape Cares Council, an important component of Cape Savings Bank that is dedicated to community support, and is the Cape Cares Captain of the annual MS Walk.
