Move-In-Ready Homes 7”

“We were building our new home from 100 miles away, so it’s not like we could just stop by any time. But we never felt out of touch. The best part about working with Piedmont is the level of confidence and trust we had with everyone involved.

—Piedmont Realty & Construction Homeowners, Margot Lebow & Jesse Bonfeld

All the Advantages of a New Home, Without the Wait Piedmont’s Move-In-Ready Programoffers close-to-completion or an alreadyfinished new home to motivated buyers

Listening carefully to what our homebuyers are looking for as they make the very important decision to purchase a new home has always been a strong element of our successful partnerships with our clients. In fact, thoughtful and continued listening is a cornerstone upon which Piedmont was founded.

Our new Move-In-Ready Program is a great example of how Piedmont has listened to our buyers’ requests, and taken action to satisfy their wants and needs. Piedmont’s merger with Stanley Martin Homes creates an exceptional opportunity for Piedmont to build new homes and allow the buyer to move in quickly. We are using our expertise in livable spaces, upgraded interior finishes, beautiful curb appeal, and convenient locations to build Move-In-Ready homes to suit the lifestyles of our buyers.

The overall appeal of a Move-In-Ready home to the homebuyer is the opportunity to purchase a new home at the time you’re ready to relocate, without waiting months until the plan and design you choose is constructed. With a Move-In-Ready home, the homesite, floor plan, elevations, and interior options have been selected, providing the new owner with the advantage and option to purchase a close-to-completion or already finished new home.

For many new homeowners, Move-In-Ready homes are just the fit for their lifestyle and needs at the point of decision to relocate to a new home. To meet what our clients are increasingly asking us for, Piedmont and Stanley Martin are working together to bring this exciting new option to the Charlottesville area.

Main-level LivingMain-level living presents the perfectsolution for comfort and cost savings

Pat and Earl Gore, who selected their new main-level living home in Piedmont’s Spring Creek neighborhood, are no different than the one in every eight Americans now over age 65 who desire to age in place in well-appointed, easy-to-access, and energy-efficient homes.

“We love main-level living,” says Pat, adding that they would not go back to a two-story home after enjoying the comfort and convenience that their 2,500 sq. ft. Fairview model provides. The Gores can speak from experience as last year they sold their 6,000 sq. ft., six-bedroom home in Glenmore to downsize to spacious main-level living that has only two steps up from the garage to access the entire first floor level.

”“We love main-level living. And, our home was built in 90 days, just like Piedmont promised.

—Piedmont Realty & Construction Homeowners, Pat & Earl Gore

Main-level Living 8

Page 11: Piedmont Realty & Construction Groundbreaking Magazine - Spring/Summer 2013

With the economy creating a longer on-market time for the Gores’ previous home, the couple found they had plenty of time to “look all over Charlottesville” for their next home. With the Fairview model, they found the perfect choice. The Gores immediately liked the home’s airy and spacious main-level living floor plan, its price point, their ability to make floor plan modifications and select from numerous options, and the helpful and knowledgeable working relationships they found at Piedmont and with its industry partners. Spring Creek’s location, 20 minutes from Charlottesville and close to family members and grandchildren in Richmond and Northern Virginia, was another highly desirable factor.

“Our home was built in 90 days, just like Piedmont promised,” says Earl, who also notes that their new home was completed right on budget. Piedmont delivered the magic words, Earl says, “on budget and on time.” Another aspect of main-level living has also pleased the Gores as they settle into their new home and neighborhood—their heating and utility bills are half of what they were in their last home.

Piedmont’s Spring Creek neighborhood features a nationally-recognized golf course, but it’s softball that keeps Earl Gore improving his swing these days. As a member of the Charlottesville Retreads, a popular senior softball league, Earl is on the field twice a week, logging in 55 or 60 games a season. After all, Earl is a founding member of the group that started in 2002 and now has about 60 avid players.

The team, which plays other senior league groups, needed official jerseys and caps sporting their sponsor’s name, so Earl made a successful pitch to Piedmont’s Drew Holzwarth. “We think Piedmont will get some mileage out of this,” says Earl as he breaks into a smile.

From a Homeowner’s Viewpoint 17

What features attracted you to the Somerset?Going in, Christie and Steve knew that they wanted a two-story home with a basement, and at least three bedrooms. The couple considered three of Piedmont’s home models and eventually settled on the Somerset. “We were looking for an open floor plan with a large kitch-en,” says Steve, adding that the oth-er models they considered didn’t come as close to their dream home plan.

“The Somerset features a large, open kitchen and living room, four bedrooms, including three with walk-in closets, and an amazing master suite,” says Christie.

The couple also decided to add a screened-in porch for additional

warm weather living space. A stamped-concrete patio outside their walkout basement completed the picture for additional space to relax or entertain.

What made the Piedmont difference?As Steve says, “the Piedmont team really went out of their way to help us build our dream home.” Steve and Christie had specific trade partners and craftspeople outside of the Piedmont network that they wanted to incorporate into the construction of their new home. This did not create a problem at Piedmont for the couple.

“Everyone we worked with at Piedmont went out of their way to make our dream a reality for our family,” says Christie.

Nursing school and a graduate degree program brought Christie Piedmont and Steve Lukasik from Pennsylvania to the Charlottesville area 14 years ago. After living near Scottsville for nine years, the couple decided to find a new home closer to the city of Charlottesville. With a young child to raise and busy careers, lifestyle convenience and access to their jobs were high on the priority list.

Why did you select Spring Creek?As Steve says, the couple had decided they needed more space once their daughter, Sophia, was born, and they both wanted to live in a neighborhood that featured amenities and access.

After giving careful consideration to all of Piedmont’s locations, and other communities as well, Christie and Steve kept returning for another look at Spring Creek, Piedmont’s gated, amenity-filled, nationally-recognized golf course neighborhood just off I-64.

“The golf course (at Spring Creek) is one of the best in Virginia, the amenities, including a fitness center with a salt water pool, walking trails, and playground, are excellent, and the proximity to I-64 and Richmond can’t be beat,” says Steve.

“We are really happy here,” notes Christie, “our neighbors are simply wonderful and there are lots of children for Sophia to interact with as she grows up.”

At Spring Creek’s Somerset model,dream is reality for busy young family

HOMEOWNER’S VIEWPOINT

Lower utility bills. More home comfort and durability.

A real difference for our natural environment.

THAT’S WHATGreen Living

MEANS

Piedmont’s Green Living Program

Delivering a new home with the most lifelong energy cost savings, the highest level of craftsmanship, and the greatest comfort becomes our singular focus in working with our homebuyers. Piedmont Realty & Construction uses an energy rating system used by homebuilders nationwide, the Home Energy Rating System (HERS®), to measure the overall efficiency levels of the homes we build. Our homes are rated by a qualified Home Energy Rater using an energy-efficiency software package to perform a complete analysis of a home. A pre-construction HERS Index® is given to homes under construction based on a comprehensive study of building plans and design. Piedmont routinely places more energy and cost-saving components in our homes than other builders utilize, guaranteeing that our new homes will easily outperform the competition when it comes to saving money every month on energy usage.

*The HERS Index® is a registered trademark of the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET®). Information about the HERS Index® can be found on RESNET®’s website at http://www.resnet.us.

Buyers should not rely solely on the HERS Index® and the estimated monthly energy costs and savings shown in making any homebuying decision. All energy costs and energy savings figures are approximate. Piedmont Realty & Construction cannot guarantee utility usage or energy costs or savings, which will depend on factors that include rates, fees and charges of local energy utility companies, level of commitment to saving energy, actual utility consumption, household size, preferences and daily activities, home maintenance practices and climatic conditions. Gas utilities and appliances may not be available in some communities and estimated energy costs may reflect electric utilities in those communities.

The HERS Index® rating is determined solely as of the date of construction of the home and is based on the average score of rated Piedmont homes—not every Piedmont home may be tested and Piedmont Realty & Construction cannot guarantee that any home will have a HERS Index® Confirmed Rating equal to or lower than the Projected Rating.

Features and specifications may change without notice at any time. Please consult a Neighborhood Sales Manager for more information.

This is good for consumers, the environment, the local economy and our national security. It’s great to have such a quality builder like Piedmont educating homebuyers on the RESNET HERS Index®.

“We were fairly intimidated by the process of selling our home and moving into a new home. When we met with Greg Slater, he was able to explain the process and answer all of our questions. He created a realistic pricing strategy for our Earlysville home of 24 years and led us through the myriad of details related to the sale. His knowledge of the process, understanding of real estate issues, and his ability to get to the heart of issues quickly aided in our decision-making, every step of the way.”
