Spec homes vs new builds: 
Which one is right for you?

So, you want your next home to be shiny and new, but should you go with a spec home or a new build?

People living in a golf community have the opportunity to play their favorite sport, but they also live in a wonderful, community atmosphere with others who have the same interests.

Repost from CleanOrganizedFamilyHome.com - I can hear you now: More New Year's resolutions! I never keep them! Why should I even make them?

Corny as it sounds, the New Year offers us all a chance to regroup and start fresh and to reinvent ourselves for the better.
