The
three builders offering home products in Gran Paradiso at the West
Villages (Arthur Rutenberg, Sam Rodgers, and Lennar) each work a
little differently in terms of pricing and customization. Which to
choose would depend on both your budget and some particular personal
preferences. There are definitely specific benefits attributable to
each of the builder's system of offerings.
Arthur
Rutenberg Homes, for instance, is entirely custom. It is what most
people would associate with luxury new-home construction. There is a
base price according to plan, a price for each particular lot, plan
options, and then you choose all of your features from the design
center. The sky is the limit for personalization of an exclusive
Rutenberg domocile. This is, at least in part, why these homes are
also at the highest price-point in the community.
Sam
Rodgers Properties follows a popular trend in the new construction
industry. They make the ultimate cost more predictable, while still
offering many selections, through offering upgrades according to
packaged levels. There is a separate lot premium and some plan
variation options that you can choose, but each
plan has three potential prices with the selected level
upgrades. They call their categorized upgrades silver,
gold, and platinum packages. It reduces likelihood of
pricing surprises, yet it allows for much individual personalization.
Lennar
calls their system “Everything's Included.” There is a lot
premium, a plan price, and just a couple of choices to make. There
are no upgrades. Features and fixtures have been chosen already by
Lennar's designers to have widespread appeal and to help ensure the
highest market value is retained in their product. They do actually
have three features packages, but each package is associated with a specific product line. The Villas and Executive category homes get
the Aviano
Series inclusions,
the Manor homes are upgraded to the Celano
Series inclusions,
and the Estate homes include the Diamante
Series of
fixtures and appliances. The are only a couple possible choices to be
made on each plan. Tile flooring throughout is an upgrade option
available, some plans have an extended lanai option, and whether or
not to purchase the home with a pool or pool with spa are options you
will find with Lennar. All personalization is left to the homeowners
after closing. The real benefit of this system is that Lennar is able
to reduce costs and pass savings on to the buyer. Many people do also
find the process less stressful as a result of reduced
decision-making and set pricing as well.
Whichever
builder's approach and plan is right for you, if you are considering a home in this
community, please let me assist you. My services and resources are of
no cost to you, and in most instances, I am able to save home buyers
some money. I do not work for any of the three wonderful builders in
Gran Paradiso. My services and information (including the resources
provided at www.GranParadisoVillage.com)
are wholly independent of these developers. No other independent
professional is more knowledgeable about this community, and
enlisting me to assist with your transaction serves to fund these
resources to keep them available for you and others on an ongoing
basis.
Look
forward to hearing from you!
