Richmond Custom Homes Only a Seven Iron Away
Located near the Richmond custom homes at Founder’s Bridge, Independence Golf Club has been Virginia’s premier public golf course for many years. Since 2004, Independence Golf Club has been placed on Golf Digest’s best places to play. Many of the state qualifying tournaments for the PGA tour have been played at Independence.

One drive from the first tee is all one needs to understand the quality golfing experience.

How do you measure the value of new homes in Richmond? Well, how do you measure the color blue for that matter? Can a tape measure accurately determine the depth of the color? Where can one turn to measure the depth of the color blue? At some point in a perplexing question you get the feeling you are being watched. A perplexing question can stir the soul and captivate the mind. Questions can be somewhat like what Nietzchze said “when you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you.” What’s the answer? How do you measure the color blue?
Answer: Blue cannot be measured with any tool we have in our garage or hardware store.
Though you may not be attempting to measure color any time soon, you may be in the need to correctly assess how to ascribe fair market value to a new home you are seeking to purchase. Boone Homes, a Richmond new home builder, is glad to help as the process to accurately measure requires you be equipped with the correct set of tools. (more…)

A comparative market analysis to determine the fair market value of new homes in Richmond is a science though lately it may feel like an art. Volatile times and rapidly adjusting prices can cast a mysterious aura over the pricing process, but in reality a market analysis is very simple. To remove the mystery, Boone Homes will expose four basic demands of fair market value.
Demand number one: Fair market pricing demands a home be compared to other similar homes. When comparing homes to other homes it does not simply mean comparing homes with four walls and a roof acting as shelter with other homes that fit the same criteria. A true market analysis must take into account the age, condition, features in the home, construction styles and size of the home site. In simpler terms, a one-level home cannot be compared accurately to homes with a second story nor can homes with first-floor owner’s suite be accurately compared with homes that have the traditional second-floor owner’s suite. Comparisons of mismatched homes will not accurately represent a home’s value. Comparisons to foreclosures or distressed properties will not give a true reflection on a home’s market value unless the predominant inventory in the neighborhood is distressed. (more…)

Each fall Richmond home builders, like Richmond custom home builder Boone Homes, as well as those all across the nation organize a showcase of homes and open the homes up for the public. For three weekends, potential homeowners can tour these homes and dream of building a new home. These homes are designed meticulously and accessorized to entice you into fulfilling your dream of building a new home. Many of the homes in the Parade will be fitted with latest energy saving features and design trends. If you are considering building a home in the future, the Parade of Homes is certainly a good event to attend.
Unlike the Parade of Homes which runs only three weekends one time a year, Boone Homes has furnished model homes in each lifestyle category and are fully accessorized. Our homes are available and open to the public daily and also by appointment. The lifestyle categories of these homes include new Richmond maintenance free homes as well as new estate homes. The planned communities where the new homes are built can be toured every day of the week. No need to wait for the next parade of homes to take a tour. (more…)

How much thought do you put into looking for, researching and planning the purchase of your new home in Richmond? Is it as much as you would for, say, your wedding day? What value is there in having your way?
The bride wants the wedding her way so she is willing to dole out significant levels of cash for the right atmosphere, location and restaurant. The food is carefully selected down to the very last appetizer and cake decoration. Every little detail is planned down to who will be in which pictures, what will be said and when it will be said. The icing on the cake is selected from a number of options so that the fairy tale day will correctly fold into the annals of history. Why is one day in life given so much attention while other details, with identical consequences, seem to only marginally arouse interest? Do you give this much attention to detail in other aspects of your life? (more…)

Shake, Rattle and Roll took the Central Virginia area by surprise this past week. The ground quaked and shook with an earthquake and several after-shocks. The magnitude of the quake ended up around 5.9 with aftershocks in the 4s. Though this is no longer news, and certainly doesn’t match the quakes that happen on the West Coast, the damage left behind was not visible in neighborhoods where Boone Homes, a quality Richmond custom home builder, has built or is building. Why is this important?
Boone Homes builds quality homes. This statement is not just a motto, but a way of life. No one on the Boone Homes team is willing to let any detail slide. Structurally, our architects work hand-in-hand with our engineers to ensure the home is built, not to the bare minimum standards of code, but well above code. All of our new homes in Richmond are then built to ensure a lifetime of enjoyment. (more…)

Location, location, location. When looking for new homes in Richmond, it’s all about location. But what makes the location so valuable? Is it valuable just because some pundit or real estate professional said so? What happens in a down market? How do you define the virtue of a location? Here are few common sense considerations when mulling over someone’s suggestion to purchase prime Richmond real estate.
- Proximity to supplies: How far are you from a grocery store? Most people don’t have the time necessary to farm all their own food. Picking up fresh apples at the store is much more convenient than competing with wild life to pick apples off the tree in your back yard. Plus, you can get apples around the clock at a grocery store versus off a tree.
- Proximity to education: Access to all levels of education is important. Access to an exceptional academic institution nearby will increase value even in today’s market. (more…)

“Stop searching forever, happiness is next to you.” ~ Fortune Cookie
“Stop searching forever, happiness is next to you.” ~ Fortune Cookie
Do the pithy sayings from a fortune cookie really guide the actions of your life? Do you suddenly feel inspired to pursue the happiness waiting in our new homes in Richmond? No one would make large decisions based on the simple and vague message in a fortune cookie. It just seems ludicrous. Or does it?
In today’s real estate market, many buyers are using similar methods in searching for homes. Some remain on the housing sidelines awaiting the deal of the century because they once heard that someone got a home for an unbelievable price. The search is prolonged because of a vague message. What if the home of your dreams was sitting right next to you all the time? (more…)
