CAAR Endorses Galvin, Bellamy and Signer for Charlottesville City Council The Charlottesville Area Association of REALTORS® (CAAR) has endorsed three candidates for Charlottesville City Council. This endorsement comes after candidate interviews and deliberations were conducted by the Candidate Funding Project Team and the CAAR Board of Directors. First term Charlottesville City Councilor Kathy Galvin was highly regarded for her forward thinking in balanced development and thoughtful street design. As a professional architect and various design credentials behind her name, Gavin offered great insight in the importance of design and how it can influence the community. Additional factors that contributed to Gavin’s re-election endorsement resulted from her government responsiveness and accessibility. City Council candidate Wes Bellamy impressed the REALTORS® with his direct style and significant involvement in the community. Bellamy’s inclusive vision for the future and personal understanding of how communities can positively impact lives were important discussion points in the REALTOR® endorsement. Based on his service to the Fifeville neighborhood, Mike Signer is a City Council candidate with an understanding of the economic development and neighborhood preservation balance. Signer’s values are clearly reflected through his campaign which focuses on Beauty, Innovation, Equity, and Culture, a great platform for moving the city forward. “We commend all those who run for a local political position and appreciate each candidate’s time and willingness to share their opinions and ideas,” said CAAR Candidate Funding Project Team Chair Quinton Beckham. “We support candidates whose outlooks align with those of REALTORS® and private property owners and not party affiliation. We believe contested races make for better campaigns and result in better public policy.”

About CAAR: The Charlottesville Area Association of REALTORS® serves more than 1,000 real estate professionals and affiliate members throughout the City of Charlottesville and the counties of Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa and Nelson. Widely recognized as the leading voice for real estate in Central Virginia since 1925, CAAR members bring professionalism and high ethical standards to every business transaction. The Association advocates for the protection of private property rights and provides tools and technology for members to achieve expertise in serving the needs of customers and clients. The CAAR membership is committed to enriching the region’s neighborhoods by engaging in a variety of educational programs as well as community service events each year.

What’s Happening Around Town? PCA Takes Over Management of Art in Place Charlottesville City Council voted unanimously to contract with Piedmont Council for the Arts for the management of its signature Art In Place public artworks program. The three-year contract is effective October 1st, and transfers management of the program from the Art In Place Foundation to PCA on that date. “Art In Place has been one of the city’s most unique arts programs,” said PCA Executive Director Gram Slaton, “and the credit for that has to go with Mayor Huja for his unwavering support as well as Elizabeth Breeden and her Art In Place Foundation board for the careful curation and management of Art In Place for the past 15 years. It’s humbling and a little bit daunting to be taking on such a wellrespected and successful program, but the PCA staff and board are excited at the possibilities this management contract presents.” The centerpiece of Art In Place has always been its roadside sculptures, strategically placed around Charlottesville to bring a bit of beauty to commuters and guests traveling by, but Art In Place is also involved in C2D, a juried art show in collaboration with McGuffey Art Center, and mural art. “Art In Place has tremendous potential to expand the idea of public art locally,” said Slaton. “While the roadside sculpture program will always remain its center-

piece, Art In Place can also incorporate any and all forms of temporary art, from snow sculptures in winter to Shakespeare In The Park in summer. It’s all about art in the moment not art that’s going to be there forever. And that temporal quality opens up all kinds of possibilities for local artists and collaborations with a lot of great local arts organizations. We hope to move slowly and carefully to expand Art In Place in all sorts of new directions that City Council and our residents and guests can enjoy.” Since 1979, Piedmont Council for the Arts has served as the designated arts agency for Charlottesville and Albemarle County. Piedmont Council for the Arts catalyzes collaboration among artists, arts organizations, and government entities to stimulate creative expression, promote cultural tourism, and advance the effective management and celebration of Central Virginia’s richly diverse cultural heritage.

PARADE OF

HOMES BY CELESTE M. SMUCKER, PHD

harlottesville’s annual Parade of Homes, sponsored by the Blue Ridge Home Builders Association (BRHBA), is a much-anticipated opportunity for local builders to showcase their best product to the local community. As during previous years, Parade goers can view a wide range of home styles, prices and locations and get a look at innovative technologies, including cutting edge energy saving concepts, as well as the newest floor plans, and the latest color schemes and amenities. The Parade also will feature a net zero home, one that makes as much energy as it uses. This year consumers will enjoy 32 homes from 11 different builders. In addition, there are two neighborhoods on display and brand new this year, two design centers. Parade visitors can tour these centers and see up close what is available in the way of counter tops, cabinets, floors, fixtures and carpet, and can get advice from onsite designers. As always the Parade is free and everyone is invited to attend. Even if you are not planning to buy or build anytime soon, come and enjoy the best local craftsmanship and learn what is new. The Parade is also a great way to get ideas for renovating an existing home whether you want to improve your insulation, upgrade your kitchen cabinets, build an addition or replace old inefficient appliances. Site agents and builders will be on hand to answer questions and give advice about what is new and what might work best for your situation. If you are ready to build, they can also advise as to which of their homes and communities would be a good fit. Over all, the Parade is a relaxed environment where you can learn a lot while enjoying a nice weekend visiting homes and neighborhoods with family and friends.

The Parade runs from noon to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, October 3rd and 4th and 10th and 11th. Information, including the all-new Parade of Homes Magazine, is available in this and next week’s Real Estate Weekly, or visit the BRHBA website and Parade of Homes Facebook page for maps, times and information. In addition, for the first time ever, take advantage of the ParadeCraze app available for Android and Apple devices with all the info you need to locate Parade entries.

New Construction Market Going Strong Builders and agents expressed a lot of optimism about the new construction market. “New construction has picked up considerably,” said Michael Guthrie, CEO and Managing Broker for Roy Wheeler Realty, Co. “Builders are building on momentum since coming out of the recession,” said Greg Slater with Nest Realty who represents both Bramante Homes and Stanley Martin Homes. He reported that there is now more of a focus on building the “right sized home,” as people move away from always looking for a bigger house than the one

they had before. He added that many choose to build when they find that some existing homes are dated or have obsolete floor plans. Justin Kent with Real Estate III, who represents Craig Builders, stated, “new construction sales remain very active following one of the best years that Craig builders has ever had since it was formed in 1957.” He added, “The high demand for new homes is helping the overall local Charlottesville real estate market as well and is helping to maintain a healthier and more typical market, instead of one with large swings in pricing and availability.” “The builders are staying busy,” said Dan Girouard, with Spring Creek Realty. A large percentage of the market at Spring Creek is retirees from Northern Virginia and DC who love the Charlottesville region. “It’s a great place to retire,” Girouard said, adding that Spring Creek offers a lot to active retirees and the “builders cater to that.” Chris Henry, Vice President of Stony Pont Design/Build and Riverside Village Properties, Inc. described the new homes market as “the best we’ve seen in a number of years. Days on the market are down and prices are rising. It’s a good place to be,” he said. One consequence of the strong market is this year’s Parade has fewer

homes than last year’s. “There were other builders who wanted to participate this year,” said Kristin O’Connell Sorokti, BRHBA Executive Vice President,” but their homes sold before they could enter them in the Parade.”

Builders and Associates Partner to Sponsor the Parade “The Parade gives the public an opportunity to meet the builders and learn about new technologies and new design trends,” Sorokti said. “We couldn’t do this without our sponsors.” The Parade is an annual cooperative effort between builders and associates active in new construction and in the activities of the BRHBA. This year’s Presenting Sponsor is once again Roy Wheeler Realty, Co. However there are many other sponsors including Specialized Insurance Services, the Gala Presenting Sponsor for the kick off event at King Family Vineyards. This year there is also a wine sponsor for the Gala, which is First Heritage Mortgage. Guthrie is proud that his company has chosen to be Presenting Sponsor of the Parade for the fourth year in a row. He emphasized the importance of the partnership between the builders and

the local real estate community stating that over the last several years this partnership has become stronger. He described the Parade as “lots of builders putting their best foot forward, and when you only give one party a year, you want everything to be in the best possible shape. We like having our name associated with a first class event like this.” In years past, Parade entries were judged and different categories of prizes awarded at the Gala. Recently, though, the Parade committee decided to eliminate the contest and, as a result, Guthrie said, “now the efforts are much more cooperative. As we market together, the activity increases and there is a ripple effect that benefits everyone.”

Consumers See the Best of the Best The Parade is fun, full of surprises and educational as consumers get to see the latest and greatest in building technologies. Every year there is something new, different and exciting. “The Parade is a way for builders to show off their product and let people see the quality,” said Jeff Goldberg, who with his wife Teri, owns Colony Builders. “When you attend the Parade you can understand the different prod-

tive ways to distinguish themselves.” As a result, he continued, “it raises the bar for everyone.” Consumers may be surprised at some of the technology and products, which used to be associated with upper end homes that are now more widely available, such as bamboo flooring or cabinets built without formaldehyde, explained Charif Soubra, Community Sales Manager for Southern Development Homes. Other examples of these kinds of upgrades include features such as solid surface counter tops, Energy Star stainless steel appliances, oak, cherry and maple cabinets, ceramic tile flooring and scald guard faucets all standard in Craig Builders homes, Kent explained. People who plan to stay put and want to renovate their existing home, can also benefit from attending the

Parade. “The Parade is a great opportunity to engage the builders and site agents and learn more about trends in new construction that also apply to remodeling,” Slater said. “Energy retrofits are very popular and the Parade builders are a good resource for information about this topic.”

Two Communities and Two Design Centers Featured This year’s Parade features the two communities of Spring Creek at Zion Crossroads and Riverside Village at Pantops, both of which have notable features they will highlight for Parade visitors. Spring Creek is a gated community popular amongst active retirees who enjoy its many amenities including the extra security.

lic courses. However, this year an important additional feature is the newly opened clubhouse in what Girouard described as a “fabulous setting with a restaurant, a lounge and banquet facilities overlooking the 18th green.” The other featured community is Riverside Village in Pantops. Parade visitors can experience the convenience of the location near Martha Jefferson Hospital, and just a few minutes from downtown and from Interstate 64, explained Mike Plecker with Roy Wheeler Realty, Co., who chose the Pantops area when he moved here from Northern Virginia after viewing the congestion in other parts of town. When completed, Riverside Village will be a walkable mixed-use development that will include a 36,000 square foot commercial area on Route 20. The residential construction will all be EarthCraft certified and include single-family homes and attached villas featuring one level living. For the first time ever, Parade visitors can also visit two design centers. Amy Hart, with Albemarle Cabinet Company, invites people to tour her showroom and enter the dream kitchen contest with a November 30th drawing. She encourages visitors to ask questions about everything from the right hardware to designing your new

home’s kitchen or doing a complete makeover for your existing space. Kendra Dunn, Sales and Marketing Manager for Southern Development, is excited about having her company’s showroom in the Parade. She described it as a “one stop shop,” where visitors can “see their home come to life,” as they view the selections and talk to the designers.
