The Fairways at Savannah Quarters Palazzo permitted

After a few meetings and subsequent approvals from the City of Pooler, the Fairways has received the building permits for the first free standing villa in the community. Construction will commence next week and should be on the fast track for an early Autumn completion. We are starting with the Palazzo floor plan which will be our furnished model and we will be following up with the planned construction of the Portico and Promenade homes soon. The free standing villa will offer single family style living with all of the conveniences of a condominium. Maintenance free exteriors, pool, clubhouse, exercise room, and all of the amenities of the Savannah Quarters Country Club.

Too Much Stuff? Read on for a Solution.

We hear from many of our residents and prospects that they don’t know what to do with all of that stuff when they downsize. Well, in a partnership with Liberty Auction we have come up with a way to solve that problem and put a little money in your pocket. Liberty Auction will come to your home and load up the things you know longer need and take them to auction and send you a check from the proceeds. It couldn’t be an easier process and if you would like to load yourself and take some time, they will deliver a mobile storage unit. For more information contact Matt Mattingly at Liberty Auction 912.653.5500 .

2 New closings

The Fairways continues to fight the headwind of the current real estate market with a closing each in October and November. We are starting to see more signs of the market improving and we believe we will have one or two closings before the end of the year. Currently, there are seven families residing at the community with a great deal of new interest the past two months. For the Fairways, we are seeing the beginnings of the headwind changing direction into a tailwind in 2010.

Tax Credit is Extended

Washington has extended the $8,000 tax credit to first time home buyers and also created a new credit of $6,500 for existing home owners who have owned a  home for 5 of the last 8 years.  Purchases need to occur by April 30, 2010 and close by June 30, 2010.

3 New Closings in July

The Fairways had 3 home sales close in July with 2 more expected by the end of August. As the economy has started to recover, baby boomers are leading the way in the real estate market as they begin to downsize their homes and shed their maintenance intensive single family residences.
