The Turnberry 1336 is Arthur Rutenberg Homes' newest custom luxury model home in Florida. The luxury home features 2,499 square feet of inside living area, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a den as standard features.

The Turnberry is Arthur Rutenberg Homes newest fully furnished luxury model built in Punta Gorda, FL.

The home features an open great room floor plan with coffered ceiling and a view directly out to a lanai and cabana area from the front door. The master suite offers a large walk-in closet and spacious layout. The master bath features a spa-like shower, freestanding soaking tub, and his-and-hers vanities.

The luxury custom home's den is located in the rear of the home for privacy and exceptional light. A vaulted ceiling offers a dramatic spacious feeling to this space.

A private guest area features a walk-in closet and bath, while the second guest bedroom has an adjacent bath that does double duty as a pool area bath.

PEORIA - It's called your house, your hive, your den, your nest. You'll spend more time in it than any other place in your life. So why isn't there a one stop shop for all things dedicated to your dwelling? Oh wait, it just so happens there is!

Lisa Scott of the Home Builders Association says, "We have everything from lumber yards, to home builders, siding companies, roofing, windows."

When the Official Spring Home Show kicked off in the Civic Center, organizers hoped around twenty thousand people would pass through the doors.

Exclamations could be heard like "We need to redo our roof, our indoor windows on the 2nd floor."

Or

"Looking at possibly building or remodeling a house is we find one we like."

Lisa Scott explains, "Most are looking for what they're going to do for their spring home projects... Do a little dreaming about that house they want to build someday."

Scott Bosecker agrees, "This is the only place where you can get this many people at one time under one roof."

Bosecker is a home builder based out of Mapleton. He says the crowd at the Civic Center is exactly what his business needs.

"We're a small custom home builder we do 3 to 4 houses a year 30-40% of the work we get is from this show."

What does creating successful homeownership mean to you? It means being a trusted resource for clients, listening to their concerns and making sure they understand the home buying process from start to finish. It is my goal to guide borrowers into a loan that best meets their needs and helping them to understand all the options that are available to make sure that they are comfortable with the monthly payment and other terms of the loan. In this field, the best reward is being able to help someone become a homeowner. Purchasing your first home is one of the great achievements in life and I have the privilege to be along for the ride. Get the knowledge you need to help you make informed decisions about your home loan. Were committed to making the home lending process clear and giving you tools, information, and guidance to help you move forward with a decision and a home loan that is right for you.

What best practices do you use as an originator? The most important aspect of our business is being accessible to clients, builders and Realtors. Its vital to be available on the weekends when most people are out looking at homes with their Realtors. Next is timely and open communication. This applies to quickly returning client and business partner calls and emails, delivering news immediately if there is a challenge, and making clients understand that they can always pick up the phone and call me with any questions. I find that 5:30-7:30 p.m. are my busiest hours of the work day. Being able to take phone calls after hours I believe sends a message that I am working for the client on their schedule. My top priority is to be a caring and dedicated Mortgage Loan Originator providing the best, and hopefully stress-free, experience possible.

What goals do you set for yourself and your team? My goal with every transaction is making it to the closing table on time and being able to provide the best customer experience possible. Meeting closing dates on time and making the home buying experience pleasant for the customer is what will separate my team from the rest of the industry and allow for continued growth.

The Loan Rangers: Mission Statement Together, we are committed to responsibly originate quality loans. While providing a transparent and reliable experience for customers and business partners. This blueprint enables us to deliver and pursue the operational excellence necessary to be the industrys finest home loan provider. Sonya Kearl, Mortgage Loan Coordinator

OCEAN SPRINGS, MS (WLOX) -

Bay Carpets in Bay St. Louis is just one of many local businesses who haven't been paid by Mason Trendsetters. Owner Chuck Jung says he met with Randy Mason about a year ago and sold carpets, tile and wood flooring to the custom home builder.

Jung says Mason Trendsetters Development made payments up until about two months ago.

"Our checks come up from Texas, the home office, and they said no checks were coming from Texas and Mississippi at the current time, until further notice, "said Jung.

Mason Trendsetters' home office is located in Abilene, TX. So, how much money does Jung say Mason Trendsetters still owes him?

"Just shy of $50,000," Jung claims.

He's just one of many local businesses and subcontractors who contacted me saying they were owed money.

Two building supply companies are owed close to $350,000. Coast Concrete is owed $75,000, and Absolute Siding is owed $21,000. Two plumbers are owed $30,000 each.

"It's disheartening, "said Jung. I don't know how somebody can live with themselves doing that. It puts a strain on your business, on your personal life."

Besides business owners, home owners have also been affected. Joe McCaleb says he had to dip into his life savings when Mason Trendsetters stopped paying the subcontractors working on his home off Highway 15.

BC Greenhouse Builders, leading North American custom greenhouse manufacturer of hobby, commercial and estate greenhouses, recently won silver for The Blue Greenhouse at the BC Home and Garden Show. A collaborative project between Rose Blamey from WindRose Garden Space Desig n, Kimberley Loewen from Flourish Garden Design, and Arts Nursery, the turquoise framed greenhouse was the center of the classic seaside garden.

After our success from the 2014 Garden Show, the team came together again to take a completely different approach, says Angela Drake Marketing Director for BC Greenhouse Builders. The garden last year represented the finer things in life while The Blue Greenhouse personifies a relaxed and inviting life on the ocean. Rose and Kimberley's attention to detail is outstanding and upon each visit, you would notice something new."

From the outdoor shower, to rock filled gabions, to the unique and lush plant material installed by Arts Nursery, the booth set off spring fever in many attendees.

The 8x12 Cottage greenhouse is a popular choice for many homeowners and available in any size or color, shipped directly to the customers door.

"This was a chance for us to show that we can do virtually anything when it comes to greenhouse design and the turquoise color was so whimsical and inviting," says Drake. "The greenhouse was a hit as we sold the display before the show even began!"

BC Greenhouse Builders Wins Silver at BC Home and Garden Show with Dreamy Cottage Greenhouse

Rancho Pacifica, a gated community of spectacular multimillion dollar homes in the hills east of Del Mar, is not immune to the ravages of the California drought. Residents, who can easily afford massive water bills, have sought to reduce their water consumption not just because they have to, but because they want to.

Brian and Frances Holloway, retired custom home builders who live in a palatial 9,000-square-foot Mediterranean, installed artificial turf in their backyard five years ago. After Gov. Jerry Brown declared a drought emergency last year and urged Californians to reduce their water consumption by 20%, the couple decided to get rid of their water-sucking front lawn as well.

Not so fast, said their homeowners association. Like many HOAs in upscale neighborhoods around the state, it keeps an iron grip on issues like house color, alterations, parking and landscaping. Now, the Holloways are locked in an escalating struggle with their HOA.

"They have to control everyone's life," Brian said.

"Egos!" Frances said.

This kind of conflict is repeating itself all over lawn-addicted Southern California, where the rigid aesthetics promulgated by HOAs are colliding with California's urgent need to save water. Ten days ago, San Diego-area Democratic Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez proposed a bill that, sensibly, would render these fights moot.

If her bill passes, HOAs would be prohibited from fining residents for installing artificial lawns. In 2011, Brown vetoed a similar measure, saying that HOAs, not the state, should make those rules.

But we are four years into the drought, and Gonzalez hopes Brown will embrace it this time. Last year, after all, he signed bills forbidding HOAs to penalize residents who stop watering or who replace lawns with low-water plants. (A spokesman for the Community Associations Institute told me that his group opposed the 2011 legislation but had not yet taken a position on this bill.)

::

The knee-jerk reaction against artificial turf, Gonzalez said, is based on the low-quality stuff we remember from miniature golf courses. She knows from all her precinct walking, though, that these days you can't tell the difference between real and fake grass.
