“The Parade of Homes has a long tradition of bringing awareness of new home construction in the Tampa Bay market,” said Andrea Hawk, chairperson of the TBBA Parade of Homes committee. “We saw a significant increase in new home sales during 2015, and early signs for 2016 are even more positive. The Parade of Homes offers homebuyers an inside look at the latest design trends and amenities,
and allows folks to create their own new home tour.” This year’s Parade displays the latest housing trends and new home designs. Models are being judged by industry professionals from across the country, who consider site plan, curb appeal, design, materials, outdoor living spaces, architectural detailing, and workmanship. The TBBA, which has more than 750 members, is a professional organization serving construction-related businesses in Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties. Members include builders, developers, suppliers, subcontrac-

The Look of Wood. The Durability of Porcelain.
W
ood-look tile is the hottest trend in flooring today, and one of the most popular products at Great Britain Tile in Land O’ Lakes. Porcelain tile looks like natural wood, but comes with all the advantages of tile. Tile flooring products are designed for performance and durability. Unlike wood, tile can be used in wet areas, including kitchens and bathrooms, plus it is easier to clean and maintain than real wood. No longer limited to traditional sizes, wood tile is manufactured in rectangular sizes called planks. Many products look so real, that it is nearly impossible to know that what you’re seeing is not real wood. The detail is so innovative and precise, that wood tiles can even mirror the look and feel of a hand-scraped, wood floor. Glazed finishes emphasize tiles with rich color, ranging from light oak to dark mahogany. Realistic, rugged-texture tile works well for quiet nooks, well-tracked hallways, or home offices that want a heritage look in a modern design. Hand-scraped tile gives a worn-look texture and comes with plenty of character.
ST. AUGUSTINE III
A Home To Match Your Lifestyle Wood grain tile is a fantastic option for homeowners who appreciate the details of design, and want the look of real wood combined with the resistance and durability of porcelain. To see for yourself, stop by the Great Britain Tile showroom at 9533 Land O’ Lakes Blvd., located on U.S. 41, just south of S.R. 52. Call (813) 235-9775 or go to GreatBritainTile.com.

eazer Homes Tampa wants homebuyers to know about its Choice Plans — flexible floor plan options that allow customers to personalize the layout of the most commonly used living spaces for no additional cost. The ability to personalize a floor plan is a feature touted by many new homebuilders. However, more often than not, those options and customizations come with a hefty price tag. Beazer encourages homebuyers to personalize their homes without worrying about expanding their budgets. With Beazer’s Choice Plans kitchen options, for example, the buyer can personalize their kitchen area based on predetermined options, such as an oversize island with a breakfast bar, in lieu of a separate dining breakfast nook, without any added cost. “Ultimately, today’s buyer is extremely intelligent and educated — they know what they want before they even start shopping for a
house. The idea behind Choice Plans is to give people choices without having to compromise,” says Kathi James, Beazer’s chief marketing officer. “The beauty of Choice Plans is that the homebuyer gets to design their home to fit their needs — and they don’t have to pay extra for it.” Beazer Homes Tampa has four communities that currently offer Choice Plans. “Choice Plans are a great way for buyers to transform their new house into a home. The best part is that Beazer includes these Choice options at no additional cost,” says Division President Mike Southward. “We are confident that with Choice Plans, buyers will experience the Beazer difference and be happy in their new homes for years to come.” Interested home shoppers are encouraged to visit Beazer.com to view Choice Plans for their desired communities, or visit your nearest Tampa Beazer Homes community.

Join the Parade to Connerton!
I
f you’re thinking about a new home, don’t miss visiting Connerton and its five fully decorated builders’ models on display during this year’s Parade of Homes, which concludes this Sunday, March 13. Homes are priced from just under $200s to $700s, and are built by five of Tampa Bay’s most respected builders: M/I Homes, Ryland Homes, Homes by West Bay, Taylor Morrison and Lennar. Located in the heart of Pasco County, Connerton is more than a community — it is a New Town based on a master development plan that meets criteria determined by the State of Florida and Pasco County. At the heart of this New Town designation is planning that reduces the reliance on cars and promotes a more sociable, pedestrian culture. Connerton is one of only a handful of New Town communities in Florida, and the only New Town in the Tampa Bay region. Living in Connerton offers residents more value for their dollar, more open spaces and trails, more amenities, more conservation, more lifestyle choices. Its beautiful clubhouse complex features a super pool, tennis courts, basketball courts, workout center and planned activities for all ages. Connerton residents enjoy the camaraderie of their neighbors while relaxing at their clubhouse and enjoying community celebrations. They revel in the beauty of nature as they watch blue herons, wood storks, sand hill cranes, deer and other wildlife frolic undisturbed in conservation areas. You will always see a smile on the faces of residents as they walk or bike the trails, play or relax in the community’s four parks, and walk their furry friends to frolic in the dog park. Residents also come together during Connerton’s annual 4th of July and other holiday festivities that
are planned by the clubhouse’s lifestyle team. Three out of four Connerton residents moved to the community from the four-county metropolitan areas of Pasco, Hillsborough, Pinellas and Hernando, because they recognized the potential of living in a New Town. As Connerton continues to grow,
The Community of More... In the heart of Pasco County, you’ll find an amazing place that truly offers more of everything your family has been searching for in a planned community. Imagine a place to call home that has more quality schools to engage your children for the future. More amenities such as a theme-park-style pool, sports fields and outdoor gathering places. More miles of walking and biking trails. More social programming for people of all ages. More signature events throughout the year for residents and the local community too. If that’s not enough, add more exceptional builders like Homes by WestBay, Lennar, M/I Homes, Ryland Homes and Taylor Morrison with prices starting at just under $200,000. Best of all, you’ll find that you’ll get even more home for your money here.
so do opportunities for residents to work where they live. Commercial developments already planned and approved include 730,000 sq. ft. in retail services, 1.4 million sq. ft. in office/medical offices, and a large industrial park. As Connerton grows, so do local businesses. McDonald’s recently broke ground on the northeast corner of U.S. 41 and Pleasant Plains Parkway at Connerton’s Arbor Square entrance. McDonalds ex-
pects its Connerton restaurant to open midyear. Close to schools, shopping and recreation, Connerton is located just the right distance from the congestion and noise of I-75 and high-traffic intersections. Its location between S.R. 54 and S.R. 52 gives residents many choices when choosing driving routes to Tampa and surrounding areas. There is so much to offer in Connerton, that you must experience it for yourself. Plus, Connerton will soon be announcing a new neighborhood close to Club Connerton that will feature a traditional neighborhood design with alley-loaded garages and quaint exteriors. Learn more about this engaging community by signing up for updates at Connerton.com.
But, one of the most impressive things about Connerton is more accountability with our New Town designation, which promotes a live/work/play culture. As Connerton continues to grow, so will the potential for up to a total of 6,500 homes, millions of square feet of retail and office space plus more opportunities for residents to work where you live. The list of benefits go on and on giving you all the more reason to put Connerton on your short list of communities you must see to believe.

Asturia’s amenity center opens in April
T
he grand opening of Asturia’s expansive amenity center is planned for April 21 at this new, master-planned community in Odessa, located west of the Suncoast Parkway on S.R. 54. “Asturia offers an unrivaled amenity package for our residents that sets us apart from other communities along the S.R. 54 corridor,” said Lane Gardner, managing director for Hines, the community’s developer. With over 5,800 sq. ft. of space, the amenity center incorporates an oversized clubhouse with meeting space for activities and clubs, fitness center with aerobic and strength-training equipment, zero-entry, resort-style swimming pool with a designated area for laps, covered outdoor patios and groomed lawn areas for outdoor games. “Our new amenity center will be Asturia’s centerpiece and a superb addition to our already robust recreational system,” said Gardner. These include neighborhood parks, playgrounds, trail network, lush picnic areas, and dog parks that separate big and small dogs. The complex’s striking architectural style is contemporary with an open floor plan, floor-to-ceiling windows, elevated shed-roof design and
wood accents that wrap around the building. Ashton Woods and David Weekley Homes are the community’s homebuilders. Each has beautifully decorated model homes and offer floor plans in a range of sizes and architectural styles to give residents a diverse, yet complementary, selection. Asturia is one of Pasco’s most desirable mixed-use, master-planned
communities, approved for 550 single-family homes, 433 multifamily units and 200 townhomes. Along its S.R. 54 frontage, there will be 180,000 sq. ft. of office space and 200,000 sq. ft. of commercial space. Another 350,000 sq. ft. is allocated for light industry.

Indoor air pollution is a high-priority public risk Facts — Indoor Air Quality
he Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has ranked indoor air pollution as a high-priority public risk. Most people are surprised to learn that the level of indoor air pollutants can be two to five times higher than that of outside air, the EPA reports. Why is this? One big reason is because newer homes and buildings are built more airtight than ever, trapping contaminants inside. This is why people looking to build a new home should consider a whole home air purification system, such as Bryant’s Perfect Air Purifier, to ensure that their indoor air is clean and healthy for years to come. Whole air purifiers connect directly to a home’s heating and cooling system. Many systems use patented “capture and kill” technology that literally zaps captured contaminants and kills living cells within the filter. This technology has been proven effective against pathogens such as bird flu, common cold, measles, tuberculosis, staph and other deadly diseases. As an example, Bryant’s Perfect Air Purifier uses a 3-inch media filter with a MERV 15 rating. It also utilizes an electrostatic charge, effectively creating a dust magnet, allowing it to capture 99.9% of nasty airborne particles, and up to 95% of particles .30 to 1.0 microns in size. Another benefit of an air purification system is it helps to keep clean the interior components of your air handler. And, because the air purification system is installed before the air handler, it can extend the life of your heating and cooling system. For more information about whole home air purification, contact the certified Healthy Air Specialists at IERNA’s Heating & Cooling by calling (813) 948-6355. You can also find more information online at IernaAir.com.
• Most adults spend 90% of their time indoors • 99% of air particles we breathe are so small that they remain airborne • Household dust is present even in cleanest homes • Dust consists of mold spores, bacteria, viruses, animal dander, human skin, fabric fibers, dust mites, insect parts and food particles • For allergy sufferers, exposure to dust mites, animal dander, cat saliva, and mold results in 200,000 emergency room visits a year • Nearly 50% of pneumonia deaths among children under 5 are due to particulate matter inhaled from indoor air pollution • A sneeze adds 100,000 droplets of pathogen-containing moisture to the air
Tips - Protect Your Home and Health • Remove shoes before entering your home • Annual steam cleanings of carpets, furniture and mattresses helps eliminate fleas, dust mites and bacteria • Vacuum weekly, and buy a vacuum with a MERVrated air return filter • Inspect and replace A/C and furnace filters every month • Inspect air handlers and ductwork every 18 months • If inspections show contamination, hire a licensed professional to clean your air handler and ductwork
