Grayslake, IL - (September 24, 2007) - Time is running out at Alleghany Trail at Village Station, Residential Homes of America’s (RHA) luxury townhome community located in north suburban Grayslake. That’s because only a limited number of homes remain for sale at this community, so homebuyers looking for an exceptional townhome value in an outstanding location with walk-to-train convenience should act quickly while the opportunity remains. To sweeten the deal, RHA has announced a one-percent mortgage interest rate buydown offer that can save buyers even more money when they purchase a new home at this community. Less than 25 homes remain for sale at Alleghany Trail at Village Station. These stylish courtyard townhomes have numerous included features and are priced from the low $200s. Decorated models are open for tours daily.
“It’s been a terrific summer at Alleghany Trail at Village Station. We have many residents living at this community and we recently sponsored a summer dog party, so
the homeowners and those thinking of moving here could get to know one another in a casual and fun atmosphere. Since we’re getting close to selling out, we wanted to give buyers an extra incentive to purchase here in the form of a one-percent mortgage interest rate buydown offered through our preferred lenders. This offer can mean real savings every month for a buyer and that means they will have more available cash on hand to help get established in their new home,” said Ann Danner, president and owner of Residential Homes of America, Inc. (RHA).
Alleghany Trail at Village Station features four different floor plans, each a courtyard style townhome design ranging from 1,471 to 1,944 square feet in size. The homes feature attractive brick fronts and have two or three bedrooms, 2-1/2 baths, lofts, finished lower levels with bonus rooms, private balconies or decks and attached rear-load two-car garages.
The courtyard design means homeowners overlook expanses of greenery from the front of their homes instead of seeing parked cars and garages.
Each home highlights 9’ main level ceilings, a luxury master bedroom suite with walk-in closet and private full bath, white painted colonist doors and trim, a spacious eat-in kitchen with pantry (per plan), a first or second floor full sized laundry room, central air conditioning and a covered front porch.
The special rate buydown offer that RHA is extending to qualified buyers at Alleghany Trail at Village Station is a one-percent reduction in the mortgage interest rate, so buyers will be able to enjoy some of the lowest interest rates available. Reducing the
interest rate that buyers pay on their mortgage can amount to considerable savings each month for the entire life of the loan, based on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage.
“Any buyer will be happy to learn that they can save at least $1,000 per year, every year, on their loan. Depending on the loan amount, the yearly savings could be even greater. Getting the interest rate reduced on their loan gives buyers more available cash then if they received a lower initial purchase price. Our preferred lenders are happy to sit down and fully explain how this program works and will illustrate the savings buyers can receive at Alleghany Trail at Village Station,” Danner said.
When buyers visit the community to take a tour of the homes, they will see two of the plans that are offered as end-unit designs, with one plan having two separate master suites – a unique and desirable feature in townhome living. Prices start in the low $200s, with each home on display as a beautifully decorated and fully furnished model. Visitors are also encouraged to visit the on-site park and walk to the train station so they can get a feel of how convenient living at Alleghany Trail at Village Station can be.
The neighborhood layout includes a pond, walking trails and the two-acre neighborhood park with gazebo, a popular spot where homeowners who own pets take their dogs for a walk. As an added bonus, 45-acres of park district property is adjacent to the community and has been proposed to include sports fields and other attractions.
During the closeout at Alleghany Trail at Village Station, buyers will not only save considerable money if they take advantage of the rate buydown program, their new home purchase will also mean being able to build equity in a beautiful community and being able to take advantage of the tax deductions homeowners enjoy.
