Shenandoah's So Perfect
BUT IS THIS THE RIGHT TIME TO BUY?
You’ve reached a wonderful
time of life. You know what you want and
what you can do
without. A choice
to live at Shenandoah can be made with
the assurance that you’ve purchased much
more than four walls. You’re entering
into an adventure - a fulfilling life
style in a beautiful setting with a
community of like-minded neighbors who
are interesting, supportive, and
fun.
Buying a home at
Shenandoah is not just about the value of
the home itself. You’re investing in
extraordinary natural surroundings and a
vibrant life style that only gets better
with time. It’s far from a speculative
investment. It’s a place into which
you’ll want to settle comfortably for the
long term.
But what about those
gloomy predictions about dwindling home
values? Should
you wait, hoping that the value of your
present home rebounds? Or should you
begin to enjoy the Shenandoah life style
sooner rather than later? Here are a few
reasons why we think that buying now will
definitely work to your
advantage.
· Although the value of your
present home is lower than it was in
years past, savings on the purchase of
your new home will surely make up the
difference. You sell for less, but the
opportunity is there to buy for less.
Builders are working with buyers to
determine how the loss of the
earlier-expected price of their existing
homes can be compensated for by
attractive new home pricing.
· The cost of building
materials will continue to escalate.
Builders may not be able to hold prices
at attractive prices when the upturn
begins.
· “Staging” your home will
help potential buyers see not how you
live in the home, but how they might want
to. Staging means not only de-cluttering
your rooms, but making subtle changes
without altering your lifestyle.
Ask your realtor or
your Shenandoah builder for advice on
making these changes that will make your
home irresistible to buyers.
· Interest rates are low,
and they can begin to creep up any
time.
·
If you
bought your home more than 10 years ago, you’re
still ahead because you can surely sell it for
more than you
paid.
