WASHINGTON – Building or buying a house is nothing if not an emotional roller coaster. But the trick to bringing your ride to successful conclusion is to try to even out the peaks and valleys.
The way builder- educator Tom Stephanie describes it in his seminars for builders and buyers, the journey typically starts out on a high note as you through the preliminaries of finding the area where you want to live, picking a particular subdivision or neighborhood and choosing a model or design. Then the bottom tends to drop out as you pick your options and figure out how much it will cost. You plummet quickly from feeling of excitement to shock or anger. Some people give up. But those who decide to keep going often find that the trip starts to level off as they sign the contract and are approved for financing.
Red, White, and Boom is Cape Coral’s way of coming together as a community to celebrate the 4th of July. July 4th is the day we celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence and America’s freedom from Great Britain. On July 4, 1776 America was born, making this year America’s 240th birthday! Woohoo! Okay, that’s your history lesson for the day

All homes are designed, but few homes are designed well, there are many things to consider when building a new construction home that help to increase its overall value. As a general rule you should always consider ceiling and door heights as well as quality general finishes. Higher ceiling and door heights will always get higher values. Finishes should be neutral and work within a variable taste spectrum to ensure top home resale. Beyond that, here are a few more specific considerations.

With the month of November just underway, everyone at Sposen Signature Homes has been focused on Veterans Day. The Nov. 11 holiday celebrates “Armistice Day”, or the end of World War I. In fact, it wasn’t until 1954 that Armistice Day was renamed “Veterans Day” and the holiday became a day to recognize veterans of all wars, not just World War I (and that’s your history lesson for the day).

At today’s Board of County Commission meeting, one hundred-plus building industry executives, business owners and workers took time out of their busy work schedules to stand up for the industry’s efforts to keep impact fees at a reduced rate. Led by Lee Building Industry Association’s (BIA) president Victor duPont, the assembly stood to be recognized. It was an impressive sight! In collaboration with the Lee BIA, Team Lee and the Cape Coral Construction Industry Association, we were able to make our statements in favor of keeping impact fees low; for the industry to keep working toward sustainability and in favor of the affordability of housing.
