Gladstone Homes Launches Live 4 Free Event: Homebuyer Relief from Grocery Costs, Credit Card Debt and Utility Bills for a Year, Plus Free Luxury Upgrades
During Gladstone Homes' “Live 4 Free” event Sept. 12 through Oct. 5, families who purchase a Gladstone home will receive a year’s worth of groceries free, as well as having their utilities and credit card bills paid for a year. In addition, Gladstone will provide $20,000 in free luxury upgrades and options.
North Aurora, IL, September 06, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Chicagoland semi-custom homebuilder, Gladstone Homes, again has taken a look at what affects the lives of families it serves, and designed a special, limited-time offer to address their needs.
“Talking to our prospective homebuyers, and looking at the news and the economy, we know our customers’ greatest challenge right now is managing their day-to-day cost of living,” said Katie Minott, Gladstone general sales manager. “So we are responding to this challenge with our ‘Live 4 Free’ event at all six Gladstone Homes communities from Sept. 12 through Oct. 5, making it the perfect time to buy a Gladstone Home.”
In the past three months, costs faced by the average urban family as measured by the consumer price index (CPI) have risen at an annualized rate of more than 10 percent, according to Dennis P. Lockhart, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. Food and energy, Lockhart says, account for about two-thirds of that rise.
But families who purchase a Gladstone Premiere Series or Signature Series single-family home, or a Luxury Villa Series home in Elgin, North Aurora, Plainfield or Yorkville during the event will get a year-long break on these rising costs. They will receive a year’s worth of groceries free from Gladstone, as well as having their utilities and credit card bills paid for a year. In addition, Gladstone will provide $20,000 in free luxury upgrades and options during the event.
“Many builders throughout Greater Chicagoland, including Gladstone Homes, offer purchase incentives tied to the homes themselves such as new home construction price reductions and upgrades, said Minott. “But pricing and option incentives that many families would have jumped at for their dream home a year ago now are off-set by concern about increased day-to-day living costs. We’re creating a unique opportunity for these families to ‘Live 4 Free.’”
Gladstone offers 16 single family plans in its Premiere Series from 3,073 square-feet to 4,043 square-feet, and priced in the low- to mid-$400s. Premiere Series homes are available at Highland Woods in Elgin, Moose Lake Estates in North Aurora, Chatham Square in Plainfield and Grande Reserve in Yorkville. Gladstone’s five Signature Series home designs, available at Windstone Place in North Aurora and Chatham Square in Plainfield, range from 2,896 square-feet to 3,405 square-feet and are priced in the upper-300s. The Luxury Series homes range from 2,194 square-feet to 2,617 square-feet. Pricing starts in the lower 300s at Oak Creek in North Aurora and Chatham Square in Plainfield.
All of Gladstone’s home designs feature kitchen-centered, open, flowing floor plans with full kitchens, separate dining areas and spacious family rooms. Single-family Premiere Series and Signature Series homes have at least four bedrooms; Luxury Villas have two bedrooms with an option for three. Most designs include a study or home office and several offer bonus rooms, dual-master suites and courtyards for outdoor entertainment and recreation. Fireplaces are among the many exceptional amenities offered as standard features in the Premiere Series, and can be added to Signature Series and Luxury Villa Series homes with just a portion of the $20,000 in free options.
“Our customers are impressed by the luxury amenities that are standard in our homes and the affordable options, and the price, quality and overall value of a Gladstone home,” said Minott. “This savings event is designed to put their minds and wallets at ease.”
Gladstone Homes’ communities offer ideal atmospheres for every family’s lifestyle. The master-planned communities -- Highland Woods and Grande Reserve -- have on-site elementary schools, clubhouses and aquatic centers and acres of recreational space. Smaller and mid-size communities such as Moose Lake Estates, Windstone Place and Oak Creek, feature spacious lots, and nearby interstate access and shopping, while maintaining an intimate feel. Chatham Square with more than 300 home sites is the largest exclusively Gladstone community. It features homes from each of Gladstone’s design series, along with 40 acres of open space, a mile of walking/biking paths, and mature tree lines.
