Real Estate Scorecard Sees Today's Boomer Choosing Quality Over Quantity
Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) August 22, 2017 -- For many, after diligently saving for retirement, the ‘bucket list’ kicks into focus and many grant themselves a well deserved reward. Perhaps traveling to exotic places around the globe or moving to a new destination to build a dream home. The benefits of building a new home at retirement are undisputed according to Real Estate Scorecard. Lower maintenance, higher energy efficiency, homes without stairs and having things just the way a family wants from the moment they move in. While track home builders appeal to some because of the cheap cost of multiplicity, Real Estate Scorecard finds the more highly educated retired working professional chooses quality over quantity while searching for Lake Oconee homes for sale.
At Harbor Club Lake Oconee in Central Georgia, Patriot Builders’ quality home construction and materials are setting a higher standard. Patriot Builders is Harbor Club’s exclusive in-house homebuilding company. Their success makes sense because no one knows the topography of the land better and cares about the overall end result. Timeless designs and timeless finishes will keep Harbor Club looking sparkly and new for a very long time.
While buyers searching for Lake Oconee new home construction have the ability to choose any home builder, after touring homes within the golf and lake community in Georgia, many chose Patriot Builders. Their new homes exude quality with features such as:
HardiPlank™ concrete composite siding soffits & trim
Pella™ windows and doors with Sunshade
