Why the time to buy a new home is NOW!

Frustrated with looking at foreclosures, short sales and old remodeled homes? Be the New Home Buyer who benefits from Buying Now!

A new home is always the preferred investment, but maybe you could not afford to buy a few years ago. So why should you buy now? Anyone who recognizes good signs like low interest rates, low pricing and limited inventory, also knows they can’t last forever. Be a leader and show your friends and family that the wise time to buy is now.

Our buyers here at Borden’s Crossing are planning families, investing in landscaping and beautifying their community as the first residents. Come find out what we are all about. The last phase is about to open! Don’t miss your chance to live at Borden’s Crossing!

Growth Everywhere at Borden’s Crossing!

There is so much excitement here – not only with the growing of our community, but the growing of our homeowner’s families.

Chrissy and Joe welcomed their daughter, Gianna Marie. Soon, she will meet her new friend, Samantha, whose parents Michelle and Anthony celebrated her birth three months ago. And John and Mary visited today with their 4-month old daughter Faith Marie. Bobby and Nicole have the prize boy, Kaiden Robert, also born three months ago. I promise – this is not an option I sold when these great new parents purchased at The Estates at Borden’s Crossing… it was solely their “personalization”!

I had an opportunity to enjoy seeing the “green ground” with all of the snow gone! We are looking forward to everyone getting out in the spring weather and enjoying the benefits of a new home community where there families have so much in common.

Nothing Beats Good Results!

On October 15th we hosted a realtor focus group breakfast. We were hoping to learn from our local “best of the best” realtors how we can partner with them for good results. Our builder, Harry Kantor, presented our newest and most successful floor plans that are specifically targeted to today’s buyers. Harry engaged the audience and impressed them with our customization programs. We have been able to satisfy many cultural needs and to build homes that are perfect for many individual lifestyles. We thank all who attended for the valuable advice and comments.

NOW, THE GOOD RESULTS!
We personally want to thank Linda November Broker/Owner of ReMax of Greater Princeton for bringing us a buyer within such a short time. We are already out of attorney review! This family has a tremendous amount of respect for Linda’s opinion since several of their family members are already Linda’s long-standing clients. Harry and I want to personally thank Linda and let her know we value the trust she has in our ability to make her clients very happy. Good luck!

Borden’s Crossing “To Your Health Event” A Huge Success!

I just wanted to share some news from the wonderful “To Your Health Event” we held on Sunday, October 3rd!

We invited families that had visited The Estates at Borden's Crossing before and all newcomers. Our local Wellness and Fitness Center, RWJ Hamilton Center for Health & Wellness, did a Pilates demo, and there was a nurse checking blood pressure, too. Everyone had an opportunity to learn about the new program “Fit Kids”. Free memberships were raffled, as were many free prizes. The kids had a ball with an international award winning face painter, as well as Dennis the Magician. There were lots of healthy treats, including one from event sponsor “Bai”, an 2010 award winning new drink, made from coffee fruit with lots of antioxidants!

Everyone knows interest rates are low, so of course a Wells Fargo representative was on hand to remind people that with low pricing in the new home market and historically low interest rates, now is the time to buy.

Cheers from The Estates at Borden’s Crossing as we celebrate your good health and happiness in your new home!

Wisdom from our homeowners!

This weekend one of our families – already excited about the start of their new home – was also delighted that the mortgage rates dropped. It allowed them to treat themselves to a few additional customizations without harming their monthly allowance for mortgage payments.

They also shared a story that I thought offered a good perspective on whether the glass is half empty or half full. A friend of theirs said they would continue to wait it out on buying a new home because rates and prices are probably going to fall even more. Our new homeowner said he would certainly not be happy to see that happen. As he remarked, “It would mean the economy is the tank and I would then worry if I will have a job!”

No doubt about it – The Time To Buy Is Now!

What’s New At Borden’s Crossing?

The summer was hot- hot -hot and so was the sales and construction schedule here at Borden’s Crossing!

Not only are we celebrating the success of our new floorplans, we are also loving the excitement of the young families who are waiting to move in. We will be sharing good news with three new couples who have chosen our community as the neighborhood where they will be raising their children! Three new blessed events… two baby girls will be arriving in October and January, and one baby (we do not know yet) arriving in November. They will be meeting two families that have twin boys, plus all of the other children in the community!

I am so happy about being involved in the wonderful world of new home sales. The buyers today are reflecting on the real reason they want to own a home… enjoying the lifestyle, backyard barbeques, kids playing ball in the cul-de-sac, making new friends, raising families.

For a while, we seemed to forget the joy of creating a home perfect for each family, and all we spoke about was investment. Years ago, investment was a “side benefit” – not the” best reason” to buy a new home. Now, we’ve returned to our roots! The very best reason to own a home is as an investment in long-term enjoyment, accruing many life experiences and creating wonderful memories.
