More Confident in Housing Market

The housing numbers are all heading in the right direction. Home prices up, foreclosures down and, perhaps the most important, consumer confidence in housing swelling. Even as sales of new and existing homes bounce up and down month to month, the desire to buy is growing. The percentage of Americans who say owning a home is an essential part of the American dream has hit a three-year high at 79 percent, and the percentage who say it is better to own than rent grew by four points to 69 percent, according to the CNBC All-America Economic Survey. Perhaps the biggest surprise in the survey is that despite a raging, record-high stock market, more Americans believe a home is a better long-term investment than stocks.

The gains can partially be attributed to a slowly recovering first-time homebuyer cohort. First-time buyers have been lagging the recovery until now, making up barely a third of home buyers in February, compared to the historical norm of 40 percent. First-time buyers accounted for 34.5 percent of home purchase transactions in February, according to a new survey from Campbell/Inside Mortgage Finance. Even more encouraging is that traffic of these buyers is rising as well, hitting a four-year high on the same survey. [Read Full Article]

On Thursday, December 6th, Diana Jordan of Napolitano Homes and Wes Flowers of Southern Trust Mortgage are leading a free Home Buyers Seminar. Rent is expensive, and mortgage rates are low. Diana and Wes help you answer the following questions:

  • Is home ownership for me?
  • Is now a good time to buy? (Spoiler Alert: YES! Mortgage rates are at an all time low)
  • What if I don’t have a down payment saved up?
  • What if my credit score isn’t great, can I still get a mortgage?
  • How can I buy a Napolitano Home sooner rather than later??

In addition to great information, there will be food, drinks, and door prizes! A $100 Wawa gift card is up for grabs! The seminar begins at 6pm on December 6, and will be held at 949-D Vineyard Place, Suffolk, VA. Please call Diana at 252-722-3101 to RSVP.

This home is for sale, see it here.

The look of an all brick home is very traditional and beautiful, this enduring substance has certainly not lost it’s appeal. So, what is it with this building material that has made it stick around so long? A brick is described as a block or single unit of ceramic material used in masonry construction.

There’s a lot of organization and coordination that takes place between the builder and all the vendors that build a Napolitano Home. Sajo Farm is a joint venture community between Napoltiano Homes and Terry Peterson Residential in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Here are some great shots we got the other day of our vendors and Site Builder, Fred Napolitano III pictured above in a black shirt with Ken Gezella our Director of Sales.
