As the areas number one builder and developer of vacation and primary
homes under $200,000 we have a commitment and responsibility to our customers
to provide them with as much information as possible about building BEFORE
they decide if building a home is right for them. For some it’s a good
choice, for others it is not. Our success has been built upon sharing
our experience, not persuading people to buy; by providing information,
not applying pressure; by being honest about the costs, not up-selling
“extras.”
With interest rates at a two-year low, unemployment numbers strong, and
investment in real estate in the Poconos climbing, we are seeing particular
interest from lot owners who want to know if it is the right time and
what it takes to put their investment in land to work for them. To that
end we are sponsoring a FREE seminar designed specifically for lot owners
called “From Vacant Lot to Valuable Real Estate”,
which will show you how to make money with the land you already own in
the Poconos. For years you’ve been paying taxes and possibly even association
dues on a vacant lot. Do you even know if the lot is buildable or if you
are just throwing good money into a bad lot? At the time you acquired
the lot maybe you were hoping to build that dream home or even just flip
the lot for a handsome return. Or perhaps you just bought a lot as an
investment or acquired one through inheritance, and just aren’t sure what,
if anything, to do with it.
Well there are a few things EVERY lot owner should know whether you plan
to put your lot to work for you or not. This seminar will answer all the
questions, some of which you haven’t even thought of asking yet, as to
whether or not your lot is worth it, if building a new home on it is even
a practical option, and what it all cost if you do! We will take all the
mystery out of it, answer any and all of your questions, and give you
enough information to determine what, if anything you should or can do
with your land. From determining the status and value of your lot, to
deciding whether to sell or build, to choosing the right builder, to renting
an investment property, we’ll cover it all.
In three to four short hours we will cover everything listed here, answer
any of your questions, enjoy a nice catered lunch, and even take a tour
of the most popular vacation and investment homes. We guarantee it will
be the smartest 4 hours you’ll have spent in 2008.
