COLORADO SPRINGS LENDER--GUY THOMAS--GOLD HILL MESA SUBDIVISION

Reblogger Guy Thomas
Mortgage and Lending with WR Starkey Mortgage

As a COLORADO SPRINGS LENDER I can offer VA, FHA, and Conventional loans for you to complete the purchase of a home in the Gold Hill Mesa Subdivision. This area of Colorado Springs is well situated on the old West side of town. The views are beautiful from the elevated lots in this neighborhood. One of the best views is the snow capped Pikes Peak which majestically stands just a few miles away.

Don't let the opportunity to own your own home pass you by. Home prices today have dropped to levels that make payments less than rent in many cases. Interest rates are at generational lows. Then to top it off, first time homebuyers are eligible for an $8000.00 Tax Credit to use in any way you desire. Even families who have previously owned a home may be eligible for a lesser Tax Credit to aid them in their move up.

Contact this COLORADO SPRINGS LENDER to see what you can qualify to move into. Let's spend some time together to make this move possible for you.

Gold Hill Mesa

Gold Hill Mesa is located on the west side of Colorado Springs just south of Hwy 24 and West of I-25. Gold Hill Mesa is close to Downtown Colorado, Old Colorado City, Bear Creek Park, a dog park, and Garden of the Gods.

This area started new construction in 2005 when John Laing was the primary builder in the area. After John Laing filed for bankruptcy in February 2009, new home builders entered the area and are maintaining similar home designs (mid-1900s) to match the existing homes in the neighborhood.

Challenger Homes and Creekstone Homes are currently building in the area. Base pricing for Challenger Homes starts at $200,000 and the ranch and 2-story floor plans in the area do not have a basement. Creekstone currently offers a couple of floor plans in the community as well.

The homes in Gold Hill Mesa have front porches and 2-car garages off alleyways in the rear of the home. The smaller lots are perfect for homeowners who prefer a maintenance free yard. There are monthly HOA dues which cover the water (metro district), trash removal, snow removal, and maintenance of the front yard. Townhome owners are currently paying $146/month in HOA dues and Single Family residences are paying $123/month. The monthly HOA dues are separate from the Master HOA dues in the community. Although, currently at $4/month, the Master HOA dues will increase after the fitness center is completed in January 2010. The fitness center will have a pilates studio, an aerobics room, and workout equipment.

The soil in the community has raised concern for some since it was formerly home to The Golden Cycle Mill (not a mine) where ore was processed. The developers participated in an extensive Voluntary Clean-Up agreement with the State of Colorado to ensure each residential building site was safe. The developer excavated 48" below the surface, added a 24" mix of native topsoil (60%) and gold ore tailings (40%), and then brought in and added another 24" of native top soil only.

All residences have fiber-optic connectivity, access to a community center that may be reserved for gatherings, and a common mailstop that is located indoors. The Gold Hill Mesa community offers spectacular views of Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods.

Cherise, this area has lain dormant for so many years with the potential mining tailings issues and everything, but is really turning into a desirable in fill area close to most major amenities. THe price range is perfect for FHA and VA financing.

Jennifer it is really nice. It is a nice transition neighborhood lying between the old west side where the town had its beginnings, and the Broadmoor area where the prices are on the higher end of the market.
