Build New - Now is the time Traverse City

By
Real Estate Agent with Re/Max Bayshore

It seems that each and everyday you turn on the news or pick up the news paper you hear bad news.  It's no wonder so many people are scared to death.  When it comes to news about constructions numbers you hear the same old doom and gloom.  In reality I don't know a better time to build a new home.

Lumber prices are low, subcontractors are crying for work, you can choose the floor plan, you can choose the colors and you can choose the flooring. Best of all this new home can be ready to move into in just 90 days.

I work with a local builder who builds a superior home for less money that most existing homes and you can build it the way you want it.  For example I can find you a piece of land just about anywhere for around $30,000.  Add to that a new custom ranch with the following features:

  • 1,513 square feet - Ranch
  • 6/12 pitch roof
  • 2 x 4 construction
  • 3 bedroom (split bedrooms)
  • 2 bath
  • Cathedral Ceilings in the living area
  • Hardwood floors in Kitchen and Dining rooms
  • Ceramic tile in mud room and baths
  • Mid Grade light fixtures in all bedrooms, dining room and kitchen
  • High grade carpeting
  • Concrete poured full basement plumbed for a 3rd bath
  • Concrete drive, porch and sidewalk to porch  
  • 30 year dimensional shingles
  • Anderson (Series 200) double hung windows
  • 90+ High Efficiency Goodman furnace
  • Central Air
  • Vinyl siding
  • Granite vanity tops in both baths
  • Double vanity in Master bath
  • Mid grade cabinets (many options)
  • Solid Core interior doors
  • Elegant Exterior entry door
  • 6" Interior trim with corner posts
  • Two car attached garage 24' x 24' with outside entry door
  • 16' Insulated garage door
  • Covered cement front porch
  • Treated rear deck
  • Oversized utility and laundry room 
  • Walk in closets in master bedroom
  • Well and septic system
  • All utility hook ups

This home can be built (including the land) for around $179,900 TURNKEY (meaning sign on the dotted line and you will be handed the keys to a 100% completely finished home).

I can get it built for less if I can find the right property or I can have the builder add a 2nd story.  The options are endless and the choice is yours. As a REALTOR I can't understand why anyone would choose to buy someone else's home for thousands more.

Now you may be asking yourself if I have anything to gain and the answer is yes.  Like any other home I sell (new or existing), my broker and I share a commission and this is no different.  In the end you get a great home for a great price and you get to benefit from the equity.  If you are interested in more information please let me know.  Call me anytime at 231-218-5199.
