I noticed the Alder model in Finney use to be called the Allamander. I wonder why they rename them. What makes it unique is that it is poured concrete not block. I think it is the least expensive stucco designer home.

Likely marketing, like much of the rest of this thread. If you look at the Veranda homes, I believe they are all existing designer home models, but when they make a Veranda home out of it, they call it by a different name. The Veranda I bought is called a Hillsdale but is the same home as the Mossy Oak designer floor plan. What is it they say about a rose by another name? This is not a new tactic and in some ways it helps avoid confusion. Many of the designer homes are called one name when they are stucco construction and called something else when vinyl sided versions of the same floor plan.

In addition, a lot of people watch HGTV and believe the hosts when they say, "These $50K upgrades increased the value of the house by $80K." Dream on. |

There is no road noise inside Fenney it is just on the perimeter homes along 468 and that is why they have been discounted. Future development will not increase road noise except for that particular area. They are great deals if you are used to hearing cars and trucks. I'm sure the homes built along 466A, 466, Buena Vista, and Morse were discounted also when they were new as there is a lot of traffic on those roads also.

I just talked to a friend of mine last night that told me his realtor said prices were going up $6-9,000 in June in the Fenney/Desota area and now would be the time to buy. Realtor said they were just out of a sales meeting(two days ago) and this is what was told to them. Rumor? Sales ploy? Time will tell.

I'm not so sure that raising the existing home prices in Fenny and Desota 6k to 9k will sell many new homes. I think its a sales tactic...
But I do think, that just maybe, raising new home prices will help out resales in the upper villages proper. That might just be a good thing for people selling there homes. |

A realtor is an agent selling property so yes, they are realtors.
