The Palisades at Lake Wylie- Ryan under $400,000-Great Home

Ryan at The Palisades- Popular Floor Plans Plus Palisades Amenities
Charlotte NC Ryan homes offers two communities at the Palisades, Briarcliff and Morningside, in the Palisades, that you can build a new home in the under $400K range, some as low as the 350’s. Offering their sunroom for “free” ( a 15K Option they routinely offer as a throw in) Ryan is offering the new home models people love to buy- even in this market! As other builders wither, Ryan is holding up strong in the Charlotte area and will, more than likely, be the largest volume builder in Charlotte in 2008 again.
Ryan does not build inventory homes, (TYPICALLY- but if you love their models, there are some Inventory- Ready Now homes available- call me for details) so everything is built to order, taking 5-7
months. They do accept contingencies, and contingencies falling through act as their “inventory.” On the model tour, always ask “What is an option?” because Ryan is notorious for needing $50 to 80k in “option”s other builders often consider standard.
Three caveats to buying a Ryan home? (Summarized from my 10 Essentials for Buying a New Home)
The best homes are part of a bigger community- like these two- at the Palisades. Communities add more to long term value than builders, and the Palisades is a winner, a Terry’s Top Ten Community in Charlotte.
As always - do not buy the first house in (no matter what the incentives) and do not buy the most expensive home in the neighborhood… your best position is always the least expensive home in the most expensive neighborhood you can afford.
Ryan offers Starting prices from the 280’s- Ha! They haven’t sold any below $350K this year… and more are in the 390-500K range, depending on the community.
Always have a Buyer Agent represent you. New Home Builders fall into the “trust but verify” group, and an experienced Buyer Agent, a home inspector who makes several visits, and your vigilance will help insure that the new home builder keeps their promises to you– that the promise will become a reality for you and your family.
