C&M Builders, Inc. has built an organization of professionals who understand the importance of selecting the right builder for your new home.

Equally important is selecting the right community for your new home. After all, the community you choose will not only affect future property values, it is where lifestyle preferences are realized and life-long friendships are established. Building in only the area’s finest communities helps to ensure a high quality of life.

When the community of Loch Lloyd announced it was opening a new phase, C&M Builders, Inc. was quick to act. ey selected a number of choice walk-out, treed home sites in this newest phase at Loch Lloyd where they are offering custom homes starting in the $600s.

Loch Lloyd is regarded as one of the finest resort lifestyle communities in the Midwest. It features the new Tom Watson Signature Design golf course and a state-of-the-art health club. e vibrant social life at Loch Lloyd revolves around the awardwinning clubhouse that features both formal and informal dining venues and many exhilarating activities including a lake, tennis, and swimming.

In addition to the new homes in Loch Lloyd, there are exceptional home sites 24 newhomesjournal-kc.com • kansascitynewhomebook.com

“After researching many builders, plans, styling and quality we felt C&M Builders was far and away the leader in every category.

Everyone at C&M was very transparent and always upfront with us from the start. The building process went smoothly and no one at C&M Builders cut any corners. We are very satisfied with every aspect of our new home.”

—Jean & Molly Cortier

available in the new phases of several other distinctive communities throughout the area, including Mill’s Farm, Coffee Creek Crossing and a new area of e Woods of Colton Lakes in Southern Johnson County, Lee’s Summit’s gorgeous neighborhoods of Winterset Valley, and the newly announced phase at the resort style community of Creekmoor in Raymore. ere has never been a better time to build or a better time to buy than right now; and the choices have never been more enticing. e opening of new phases in multiple upscale communities at virtually the same time, presents a unique opportunity to build in your choice of these highly sought-after neighborhoods—and to have your new custom home built by one of the most respected and recognized building teams in the Metro—C&M Builders, Inc.

With that in mind, it is no surprise they select communities “When we walked into C&M Builders’ model in Mill’s Farm, it immediately felt like home.

You could sense the quality throughout the home. The C&M team was very helpful in designing our new home. They definitely have great taste. We were so pleasantly surprised at how ‘hands-on’ the entire team was. We were having a difficult time getting the color of stain right on the exterior doors and trim. They came out and spent a couple of hours on the ladder trying several different concoctions until our ‘Hershey’s Chocolate’ brown was just perfect. We couldn’t have asked for better customer service.”

—Shannon Warden

When it is time to build the home of your dreams, contact the builder who chooses extraordinary communities, utilizes high quality materials, the latest in modern construction techniques, and one who is always willing to take the time to listen to you—C&M Builders, Inc. ey will not only meet your expectations, but exceed them at every level.

Benson Place Remains a Top Selling Community in Kansas City’s Northland April’s 2013 Spring Parade of Homes brought a phenomenal amount of activity to the beautiful Northland community of Benson Place.

Parade entries by the community’s award-winning builders, Aspen Homes, McFarland Homes, SAB Homes and Summit Custom Homes and open houses by Robertson Construction proved to be popular destinations on parade goers’ itinerary.

Benson Place’s numerous amenities include a competition-sized swimming pool and cabana, children's spray ground, playground, five acre lake, picnic area, walking trails and more than 40 acres of parkland/natural areas. Plans are well underway for the design and construction of a second community pool as well as additional walking trails.

However, heavy homebuyer traffic year round is common in Benson Place according to Jenni Mann, marketing manager with Hunt Midwest Residential, the community’s developer.

“Benson Place home sales were minimally impacted during the down economy,” observes Mann.

“Throughout 2012, consumer and builder confidence greatly increased which lead us to open the third phase of Benson Place Fieldstone in August and move right into planning for the fourth phase to open this fall.”

All this and more has differentiated Benson Place from other residential communities, allowing for its continued success and consistent growth. Beautiful, move-in ready homes are currently available or buyers may choose to build on one of the few private, cul-de-sac home sites that still remain.

Inventory changes daily and buyers are encouraged not to wait.

Many attributes have lead to the community’s popularity including rolling hills, abundant parkland, and close proximity to the Shoal Creek Golf Course and Hodge Park. Benson Place is within the boundaries of the highly rated Liberty school district and just minutes from excellent shopping including Zona Rosa, downtown KC, KCI Airport and fine dining.

Another asset to the community is the award-winning builder team.

“Our builders provide a level of class along with exceptional homes,” Aimee Miller, Reece & Nichols agent at Benson Place emphatically says. “e quality they put into their diverse inventory of exciting floor plans is refreshing. All of our builders continue to go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. eir face-to-face interaction with clients has lead to many satisfied homeowners. ey hold holiday parties and offer impressive referral programs to help promote a socially active neighborhood.”

Homes in Benson Place start in the mid $200s.

Benson Place is a 483-acre, master-planned community of over 1300 homes located in Kansas City, North on 96th Street just west of Flintlock Road with easy access to I-35, I-435, M-152 & M-291. Residents enjoy the convenience of a day care center and Benton House of Shoal Creek, a senior living community, at the entrance of Benson Place, providing families full lifecycle housing opportunities within a single residential community.

Benson Place is marketed exclusively by Reece & Nichols Realtors.

Model homes are open Tuesday – Friday from 1pm - 6pm, Saturday - Sunday from 12pm - 6pm and Monday by appointment. For more information, contact Aimee Miller at 816.792.5748 or visit www.HuntMidwestKC.com .

Amazingly, the 2013 Dream Home was built at zero cost, meaning that all labor and materials were donated. “e Dream Home donors and sponsors were so generous, and we most certainly could not have done it without them. is truly is a labor of love,” said Fred Delibero, President and CEO of Summit Custom Homes.

Ground breaking for the home took place in October of 2012, and just six months later, the Dream Home’s grand opening took place on April 20th.

“We do it because St. Jude is such an amazing organization.

Treating over 5,700 patients every year is no small task: it takes nearly $1.8 million a day to run the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and patients never pay a dime for treatment. We’re excited to be able to play a small part in helping the kids at St. Jude,” said Megan Fratzke, Marketing Manager for Summit Custom Homes.

Home also features a main level hobby room, hearth room, and great room with a see-through fireplace. It has custom kitchen cabinetry with granite countertops, a spacious tiled master bath shower, custom built-in bookcases, outdoor living space, and an integrated laundry room and master suite.

Custom Home Builder Making it Simple to Build Your New Home On Acreage You want a home on acreage but don't know where to start. Now there is a way to put all the pieces together perfectly and make it simple. Dreams & Design Building is simplifying the once extensive and complicated process of building a custom home on acreage, while creating lasting value for the homeowner. ere are a number of advantages to building with Dreams & Design Building on your own land. Perhaps the key details are that the homebuyer is not required to deed thier land over to the builder.

ey can arrange their own home loan and maintain ownership throughout the process.

If you have acreage you’re planning to build on, Dreams & Design Building can help you develop a plan that meets your family needs and works with the topography of your land. A custom on-site built home can dramatically increase the value of your land and provide

Always at the forefront of cutting-edge ideas, Kevin Stallings, President of Dream & Design Building, is dedicated to making the new home construction process a fun and exciting endeavor. His attention to detail and dedication to each customer has resulted in some of the most beautifully crafted, thoughtfully designed and structurally sound custom homes in the area. By combining years of experience, old-fashioned common sense and undeniable creativity, his approach is to discover his client's needs and desires, then craft a distinctive, oneof-a-kind custom home to fit their lifestyle.

Beyond what you see and what you can't see, the homes of Dreams & Design exceed industry standards in every way. ere are a limited number of home builders in the area that are constructing homes that are Energy Star qualified Version 3.0 homes. In fact, Dreams and Design's average HERS score, the rating given to determine qualification for Energy Star certification, was a 53 for homes built during 2012. A non-Energy Star home built to simply today's construction code would register a score of 100, making Dreams and Design Buildings' homes approximately 50% more efficient than a traditionally construction new home.

“Now, our homeowners can enjoy all of the extra benefits that Green Building offers,” Stallings added. “We are committed to our customers and dedicated to designing and building homes that last a lifetime.”

Right now, Dreams & Design Building is constructing a custom dream home for clients on acreage in Grain Valley, Missouri.

Working closely with project manager, Jim Duff of Lead Bank, these future homeowners are able to maintain the title to their land during the entire construction process. is peace of mind of not having to deed over the land to a builder was vitally important to these buyers, as it is to many others who've held back from building on their land for that very reason. Now, the construction of their dream home is in full swing, thanks to this innovative loan relationship between the buyers, the builder and the bank.

In addition to building custom homes on acreage, Dreams and Design building crews are incredible active right now in several Metro subdivisions.

Currently, Dreams & Design Building has a model home at Stone Canyon featuring many innovations in construction techniques, green materials, luxury designs and finishes and too many options to mention here.

Homes from the upper $300s to $600s+

It Starts with Design Here, homes are not the same old designs everyone is used to seeing. Our award-winning builders pride themselves on their distinctive homes featuring breathtaking architecture! You will not find cookie-cutter or repetitive designs like what is seen in many other communities.

Ridgestone Meadows offers residents unmatched value with homes ranging from the upper $300s to the $600s+! Select builders adhere to a higher standard with a keen eye focused on the details, affordability and superior customer service. Each builder feels their experience, professionalism and open communication before, during and after the construction process is paramount to the success of Ridgestone Meadows.

Ridgestone Meadows is first and foremost, a unique community. Set among trees and rolling terrain that brings thoughts of mountain retreats Ridgestone Meadows is not your typical Kansas neighborhood.Wooded and spacious home sites and scenic natural beauty are hallmarks of Ridgestone Meadows. Residents experience nature at its finest and the gentle rolling hills and surrounding wooded areas enhance the community's appeal.

When complete, this exclusive two phase neighborhood will consist of just 106 planned home sites, but vibrant sales activity at Ridgestone Meadows has resulted in only a mere 45 choice sites remaining. Although the number of sites are limited, the opportunities are not.

Savvy homebuyers can still choose from a variety of large walkout and daylight lots starting at the low 60s.

“Any home or plan our homebuyers choose will be special,” explains Jennifer Harvey, marketing agent for the community. “Homebuyers can either bring us ideas that they saw in a magazine, a full plan they like, or they can come empty handed and visit with one of award-winning builders and sketch their design ideas from the ground up. e sky’s the limit here.”

Location, Location, Location! is tranquil setting is convenient to K-7 and I-435.

Located just west of Shawnee Mission Pa rk w ay and Martindale Road, Ridgestone Meadows is approximately 20 minutes f rom

anywhere around Kansas City. The area around the K-7 & Shawnee Mission Parkway has experienced robust growth in recent years, resulting in an abundance of nearby amenities.

Shopping, fine dining and recreational opportunities are all nearby.

Experience luxurious living in the natural beauty of a secluded, tranquil wooded setting. Watch deer and other wildlife grazing or birds soaring above spectacular bluffs from the comfort of your beautiful new home. When you are not nature watching, you can enjoy a variety of community activities.

Neighbors are active in this closely-knit community. ey host parties, put on parades, BBQs and numerous other planned as well as spontaneous friendly get togethers.

Resident students attend DeSoto Schools. ree DeSoto District schools were recently honored with the Governor's Achievement Awards, including Horizon Elementary School (the elementary school for Ridgestone Meadows), Lexington Trails Middle School and DeSoto High School. In order to be honored, schools must receive the Standard of Excellence awards in both reading and math, along with making adequate yearly progress.

e Ridgestone Meadows Team Jennifer Harvey is lead agent for the Jennifer Harvey Team. Jennifer has been a Realtor for over 10 years. She started in New Home sales in 2008 and formed her new home sales team in March of 2009 to be the new onsite team at Ridgestone Meadows. When the team first came on site nothing had sold in quite a while. e team focused on target marketing, follow up and a clear understanding of the building process. At the end of 2009 Ridgestone Meadows had become the fastest selling new home community in Shawnee and Lenexa in their price point. e team understands that buying or building a new home is completely different than buying a resale. e time frame with a build job is much longer and can be stressful if you do not have someone to guide you through the entire process. Jennifer also lives in the neighborhood.

"My husband and I were not looking to move but when we stumbled upon Ridgestone Meadows we felt we had found the rare opportunity to be able to custom build on a dream lot where we would also have great access to highways and a top notch school district. We absolutely love the neighborhood. I can't imagine living anywhere else."

Jennifer also has two other neighborhoods her team markets. The Jennifer Harvey Team team will handle everything from the moment you walk in the door at any one of the subdivisions they market. ey will professionally assit you through closing and continue the highest level of service after you have moved in your new home.

“We pride ourselves on going the extra mile so you will not just be settling for a house but be living in your dream home.” Jennifer’s slogan has always been...when you want a Realtor who works for you—
