Large Home- New-Near Charlotte at $339,000 or $89 per sf COMPLETE
November 14th, 2008 Categories: Buy A Charlotte Home, South Carolina
Do you need a large home, six bedrooms perhaps? How about 6 bedrooms under $350K? A great deal, in nearby popular Fort Mill…
Massey is an amenity rich planned community, a new home project by Ryland 10 miles south of Ballantyne, and they are having a killer sale on their models.
The popular Marlette- 5 br and 2 bonus rooms, at $89/sft. Yes, fully equipped, with options at 89/sf, well below replacement cost. One client I had looked at and loved this home, because she really wanted 6 br (including a guest room) and she was going to use one of the bonus rooms as an extra 6th bedroom.
Well regarded Fort Mill Schools, 15 minutes to Ballantyne, 10 minutes to Ft Mill, and a 5000 sf clubhouse awaits.
All first floor hardwoods, window treatments, and stainless appliance, granite- $89/sf Complete. you read that right, this is the best new home deal in Charlotte today. Why is that $89/sf price so important? Because it is BELOW the replacement cost, and that means the price can not fall further- it is a price floor.
The taxes? Low South Carolina taxes too. I’ll share the figures below the inventory table below. Three great homes, three great deals.
| FLOORPLAN | PRICE | Sq Ft | # Stories | BR | Bath | #Bonus Rooms | Cost per SF | |||
| Bloomfield C | $299,422 | 2911 | 2 | 4 | 3.5 | 1 | 102.86 | |||
| Marlette C | $339,491 | 3774 | 3 | 5 | 4 | 2 | 89.96 | |||
| Sterling A | $389,749 | 3788 | 2 | 5 | 3.5 | 1 | 102.89 |
Taxes? Here’s how to figure them*: Sales Price of Home x 4% x .1912, so on the Marlette, if we paid retail (we Never pay retail-but most of the discounts have been taken) at retail it is $339,491 x .04 x.1912, or $2,596 per year. A bit over 200/month, HOA are under $600 per year.
*Thanks to the excellent Ryland on site Rep.

Charlotte NC| Sun City Carolina Lakes- Over 55 and Active? The Real Deal…
May 27th, 2008 Categories: South Carolina, Terry's Top Ten New Home Communities
Over 55, Active Adult Real Estate in the Greater Charlotte Area. If you want amenities, Sun City Carolina Lakes in close-in SC is the real deal.
A client of mine saw this entrance and fell in love. (Pic taken on a fall grey day) That client closes next week! Congrats Nancy and John!
This is Part II of a series on Over 55 Active Adult communities in the “Greater” Charlotte, NC area… see part I, Four Seasons, here. So whats the attraction?
The climate obviously, golf is a 360 day sport here… some have grand kids living in Charlotte, some just think Florida is too hot (and hurricane prone) others love the ridiculously low property taxes…But really, it is all about the lifestlye... all the conveniences of city living in a golf -suburban setting, 25 minutes from a major Southeastern US city. 
Home Sales Starting to Move at Sun City Carolina Lakes
In the last 30 days, 2 homes closed, but 13 went pending- new contracts. Fence sitters are leaving the fence! There are several re-sale homes worth paying attention to, because they are on fantastic lots. I saw these earlier in the week in advance of a client coming to town.
The first is on Legend Oaks, it backs to the woods, and has a finished walkout basement. Almost 3900 sf, 3 be
drooms, 3 bath (easily a 4th if you needed it) the popular Willow Bend model, with stone front… Asking 422,000, I’d try 390K to get started.
Another is on Grandview, just a few doors down from the $500K models and sits on the golf course, this is also a Willow Bend, but with no basement coming in at about 2100 sf. Easy walk to the amenity center, or sit on your deck and watch the golfers go by. Excellent condition, many custom upgrades, sensibly priced at $375,850 , lets try $365,000.
Amenities- let me count the ways…

Charlotte, NC|Sun City Carolina Lakes- A Deep Market Report of this Greater Charlotte Community Located in Ft Mill SC

Sun City Carolina Lakes- What’s Up With the Re-Sale Home Market?
Some Re-Sale homes are asking higher prices, than the same model new construction… What? A Deep Market Report
Sun City Carolina Lakes in Ft Mill SC, an active adult resort style community is the fastest selling new home community in the greater Charlotte area. Del Webb’s popularity is well known, the lifestyle, the convenience, and the amenities are there for the leading edge of the boomer retirement curve. Charlotte’s popularity is no longer a secret either, and despite the nationwide downturn in real estate, Charlotte real estate prices are still increasing (13 of the last 14 months)and our market overall is quite healthy.
But homes for sale on the re-sale market in Carolina Lakes have frankly gone wild. Is it over eager agents pumping the prices to outlandish levels? Or, more likely, sellers demanding these prices, even as price appreciation has slowed in the region, and Agents not making their case effectively for realism in pricing? Prices in many cases appear to exceed similar new units. Folks, this won’t work!
