HBA Parade of Homes starts today: Meet the builders!

During the Home Builders Association (HBA) of Northwest Indianas 31st Annual Parade of Homes this week, you can explore new construction homes at your leisure. Admission is free for the scattered site eventwith 37 homes in Lake and Porter counties open 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. on the weekends and 4 - 7 p.m. during the week through next Sunday, June 29.

Showcasing a variety of the finest new housing opportunities available across our region, the Parade of Homes is a great opportunity to get some new ideas - whether a new home is in your future this year while prices remain competitive and interest rates are low or you simply want a bit of inspiration for a few updates to improve your current home for now and for later when it does come time to sell.

Who knows, when you discover all the very tangible benefits of building new, you may opt to take the plunge sooner rather than laterand its definitely the best time of the year to get started.

Along with being able to see the many design advantages of the latest floor plans first hand, be sure to ask the builders and their representatives to point out the state-of-the-art materials and technologies that contribute to a lower cost of home ownership as you tour different homes during the Parade.

For example, new homes typically include significantly more storage and livable space than existing homes. According to New Home Source, new homes offer three times the closet space and two times the bathroom space when compared to most existing homes. Its not hard to imaging how that could improve the quality of life for an average family!

Then, in their effort to meet and often exceed the latest building codes, local builders are using the most advanced materials available many of which are designed to significantly reduce maintenance and utility costs for homeowners. They also typically provide comprehensive home warranties that give buyers peace of mind to go along with the fact that everything is brand new inside and out.

When you consider the repair and remodeling costs that often go along with moving into an existing home, these are just a few of the key advantages of new construction. Find out how a local builder can create your personal vision of a dream home so you can avoid the time and money associated with reshaping someone elses.

Visit the latest homes by the following builders to learn more, and be sure to enter the Walk In & Win drawing for a Toshiba 50-inch 1080p LED HDTV. Pick up an entry form at the first Parade home you visit and have it stamped. Tour 8 of the 37 homes and request stamps along the way to complete your form, which can then be left in an official drawing box at any home. All entries will be combined, with one winner selected and notified by e-mail following the drawing on June 30.
