Harmony Homes celebrates Valencia Terrace grand opening, special prices

Harmony Homes unveiled limited-time introductory prices starting at $60-per-square-foot during last week's grand opening of its new Valencia Terrace neighborhood in the eastern valley.

"This neighborhood's price per square foot starts at just $60. This is practically the same as the price per square foot of used homes and foreclosures in the area," said Geoff Gorman, vice president of sales for Harmony Homes.

According to Gorman, home buyers are realizing the many benefits of purchasing a home at Valencia Terrace, which is located across from the public Desert Pines Golf Club near the intersection of Bonanza and Pecos roads and features two-story homes ranging from 2,107 to 2,287 square feet and priced from the $125,990.

"By choosing a branch new home at Valencia Terrace instead of a used home, you won't end up sinking a ton of extra money into the home. There is no need to replace the flooring, to buy appliances or to even repaint the freshly painted walls like you will have to do with a foreclosure." Gorman said.

"Plus, you get a piece of mind when you buy a brand-new home. Everything in your home is new with manufacturer warranties, and Harmony Homes offers a 10-year structural warranty and one year warranty that covers fit and finish."

"And right now for a limited time, if you use one of our preferred lenders, Harmony Homes will pay up 2 percent of your closing costs, allowing you to save in your up-front, out-of-pocket costs."

Another advantage is that homes can be ready for move-in within 75 days of contract, and sometimes even less. Gorman said that timely closings and move-ins are less likely among purchases of foreclosed homes following last week's announcement of a major nationwide lender's moratorium on foreclosure proceedings and sales.

The neighborhood features three two-story designs.

Priced from $125,990, the 2,107-square-foot Residence One features a great-room design, three bedrooms, 2½ baths and two-car garage. An optional fourth bedroom or master retreat may be chosen in lieu of a loft.

Residence Two features a great room, four bedrooms, 2½ baths, loft, two-car garage and options for a super loft, fifth bedroom or master retreat. The 2,201-square-foot design is priced from $131,990.

Measuring 2,287 square feet and priced from $136,990, Residence Three includes four bedrooms, 2½ baths, separate living and family rooms, a loft, and two-car garage. Design options include fifth or sixth bedrooms, a third full-bath or master retreat.

The neighborhood is located near the Desert Pines Golf Club and Desert Pines High School and offers access to shopping, parks, entertainment and Interstate 515/U.S. Highway 93/U.S. Highway 95.

To visit the Valencia Terrace sales office at 3608 Asbury Hill Ave., take Interstate 93 to Eastern Avenue and head north. Turn right on Bonanza Road and proceed to Pecos Road. Turn right on Pecos and then the first left on Asbury Hill Avenue. The sales office is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, except Monday, when it opens at noon.
