BRHBA 2015 Parade of Homes

Welcome from the President Welcome to the 52nd Annual Parade of Homes! Whether you are a long time resident or a first-time visitor to the Charlottesville area, our Parade is sure to have something that will catch your eye. We have 12 builders showcasing 32 homes in addition to 2 communities and 2 Design Centers. Inside each builder’s home you’ll find the products and services offered by various associate members of the Blue Ridge Home Builders Association. We welcome you to visit the homes in the Parade, free of charge, during the weekends of October 3rd-4th, and October 10th-11th from noon until 5pm each day. The Parade is the ultimate opportunity to view a variety of new homes built by talented local builders. This year’s entries include townhomes with rooftop terraces, a wide array of one level living options, homes in the most desirable locations with prices from the $300,000’s to $1.1 million and everything in between. In addition to the finest in new home construction, the Parade of Homes highlights the unique lifestyle of those fortunate enough to call Charlottesville home. Come see what 52 years of showcasing our exceptional building has to offer and make your real estate dreams a reality. Want a home with a mountain view, walking distance to downtown, or right on the golf course? We’ve got it! Looking to upgrade to a larger space or downsize for less maintenance? We’ve got it! Looking for a community with multiple amenities or close to your favorite school? We’ve got it! No matter what you’re looking for, you’re sure to find it or someone who can create it at this year’s Parade of Homes. We want to thank you for celebrating the 52nd annual Parade of Homes with us. A few of our builder members would like to apologize for not having homes in this year’s Parade. 2015 real estate market conditions left very little inventory available for homebuyers to purchase. This resulted in a 20% reduction in the number of homes entered this year as Builders couldn’t turn away buyers that needed to move into their new home prior to the Parade. Whereas we wish we could have had these homes to showcase for you, it is a true sign of a strengthened local housing market. Last but not least, I’d like to acknowledge the support of our sponsors and all of the members of the Parade of Homes committee who volunteered their time and worked tirelessly to make this year’s Parade the best yet. Again, thank you for joining us for the 2015 BRHBA Parade of Homes.

HOMEOWNERSHIP:

Opportunity is Knocking! Homeownership is an important part of the American way of life, and there may never be a better time to buy than today. 12

BRHBA 2015 Parade of Homes

Outstanding Opportunities With the country still emerging from the recent recession, many people wonder if this is a good time to buy a home. The answer is easy: Yes. It’s a very good time to purchase a home. There are many opportunities in today’s market including low mortgage rates and new homes that are built to fit your lifestyle. But market conditions can change, and these opportunities may not be around for long, so home buyers shouldn’t wait. And despite the housing downturn, homeowners still place high value on owning a home, and recommend homeownership to others.

Low Interest Rates Today’s historically low interest rates are helping homebuyers find affordable housing options. But, it’s important to keep in mind that interest rates are sensitive to market forces and can change quickly. There’s no indication that rates will suddenly surge upward, but even a slight rate increase can push monthly payments to the point that a buyer might miss out on their first choice for a new home.

Large Downpayments Not Necessary While lenders are looking more closely at borrowers today than in recent years, there are options for purchasing your home without a 20% downpayment. For example, the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) offers loans to first-time home buyers with downpayments as low as 3.5%. However, these loans require mortgage insurance. To ensure that the process goes smoothly, buyers should consider pre-qualifying for a mortgage and having financing in place before shopping for a new home. Buyers also may find that some home builders have arranged favorable financing for their customers or offer financial incentives.

Built to Fit Your Lifestyle Designed to accommodate today’s busy lifestyles, new homes – including urban condos and single-family homes – feature open floor plans, flexible spaces, low-maintenance materials and other amenities that make them more appealing than ever before. With energy costs near the top of consumer concerns, it’s good to know that new homes can be more energy efficient than ever. Innovative materials and construction techniques mean that today’s new homes are built to be much more energy efficient than homes constructed a generation ago. Not only can they be more affordable to operate, new homes also are significantly more resource efficient and environmentally friendly. And in many areas, prospective home buyers who wish to live in age-qualified communities for those 55 and older will find a large selection of homes tailored to the evolving lifestyles of the baby boom generation.

Benefits for Home Owners Homeownership also provides important benefits to owners. Tax Benefits: For Home Owners Only Unique tax benefits that apply only to housing help lower the cost of homeownership. Both mortgage interest and property taxes are deductible. Moreover, for married couples, profits of up to $500,000 on the sale of a principal residence ($250,000 for single taxpayers) are excluded from tax on capital gains. The Advantage of Leveraging Leveraging is another advantage of homeownership. A buyer can purchase a home and receive the full benefit of homeownership with a cash downpayment that is only a fraction of the total purchase price. This is called leveraging, and it makes the rate of return on a home purchase greater than on other purchases with the same value, such as stocks, where the buyer must put up the entire price. Building Personal Resources For most Americans, homeownership is a primary source of net worth and an important step in accumulating personal financial assets over the long term. Although property values have declined in many markets, Americans have more than $10.8 trillion of equity in their homes, and for most families, home equity represents the largest share of net worth. There Really is No Place Like Home Although there are many positive financial aspects to homeownership, a home cannot be valued in monetary terms alone. Not only can homeownership be a stepping stone to greater financial well-being, it provides a permanent place to call home and great personal satisfaction. Academic research also shows that homeownership provides a wide range of social benefits and strengthens the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s people and its communities. Homeownership is truly a cornerstone of the American way of life. This article is reprinted with permission of the National Association of Home Builders.

There are many reasons for you to choose Albemarle Cabinet Co. for your next project. For Bramante Homes, there are two reasons that top our list: The experience is as important as the final product. Sure, Amy has worked in the cabinet industry for years, but to excel she asks the right questions, identifies with clients, and instills confidence through the design and implementation of the heartbeat of their home. Working with local companies reinvests in our community. As a local and family-operated home builder we wouldn’t exist if our clients didn’t buy local. That’s why it’s so important for us to do the same as often as possible. Their showroom on Water Street, their utilization of local trade partners, and monthly art openings for local artists make Albemarle Cabinet Co. quintessentially Charlottesville.

See this partnership at work in this year’s Parade of Homes!

Guide to Buying a Home

BRHBA 2015 Parade of Homes

If you are thinking of buying a new home, you must pay close attention to many details to ensure that you find one that will suit your needs and preferences. Before you start shopping, you should sit down with the members of your household to discuss your preferences and the many options available to you. Here are some things you should consider: Step 1: Financing Your Home The first step to the home buying process is determining how much you can afford. Your local real estate or mortgage professional can help you figure this out. Step 2: Prioritizing Most-Wanted Feature An easy way to organize your thoughts is to write each separate feature that you want on a 3X5 card, and arrange the cards in order of their importance to you. For instance, if you like to cook, you may want a home with a large, well-equipped kitchen. Or you may settle for a small kitchen, so that you can have extra space for a library, office or playroom. Some home buyers seek large, open interior spaces, while others prefer traditional rooms that afford more privacy. While looking for a home, consider whether your needs are likely to change over time. If you plan to add rooms, find out if there is enough space on your site for such expansion and whether such additions are permitted by your local jurisdiction.

owners association is responsible for maintaining the jointly owned elements. The day-to-day business of the complex is generally handled by a managing agency. The owner of each condominium unit has a vote in the affairs of the community. Each owner pays a fee to cover the operating expenses of the property and usually contributes to a reserve fund for replacements (such as a new roof ) or improvements (such as decorative landscaping to improve the value of the property). Changes and improvements to the complex may be made only as you and your co-owners desire. You are responsible for maintaining the interior of your condominium unit. Typically, you will not have to perform outdoor chores. Step 4: Starting Your House Hunt Now that you know the type of home and features you are looking for, and how much home you can afford, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to begin searching for your perfect home. Whether you use a realtor to find an existing home or work with a builder to buy a new home, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be more focused with your search. This article is reprinted with permission of the National Association of Home Builders.

Step 3: Selecting the Type of Home Options include single-family homes and condominiums. Some home buyers prefer homes with large yards. Others opt for condominiums where they can avoid yard maintenance entirely. With a single-family home in a development, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be responsible for your own yard and home, but may be restricted to certain design elements or other regulations if there is a home owners association. A condominium is a home in a multi-unit complex, such as an apartment building or a townhouse cluster. You own the home, and you and your neighbors jointly own the common elements, such as the land around the complex, the parking areas, building exteriors, hallways, utility pipes and recreational facilities.
