If you find one, report back on their location. You’ll be given a prize and be entered to win a $100 gift card to Toys-R-Us®.*

While at our models, imagine what it would be like to move into your own new home in the upcoming new year. Sign a contract before December 31, and receive a free Christmas Light Package upgrade or $2,500 off options.**

The Upside of Downsizing

The Upside of DownsizingThe prospect of downsizing your home can be daunting. Whether you’re an empty nester or just find yourself with more home than you want to manage, the thought of searching for a new home, putting your current home on the market, and reducing the furniture and accessories you’ve collected over the years can be enough to convince anyone to simply stay put.
