First time homebuyers Kara Flanders and her fiancé, Taylor Howes were living at home with Taylor’s family and spent many hours searching for a new home. They knew they liked the Brick area and were looking for the perfect place to call home when suddenly the pandemic last spring put a hold on their new home dreams. As prices started skyrocketing due to demand, they were left wondering if owning a new home would be within reach as they looked forward to beginning their life together. One day last summer they decided to take a ride through Brick to look at homes, where they found a community of townhomes called The Brownstones at New Visions. Little did Kara and Taylor know that the decision to take a ride was fate and would change their path to homeownership in a very positive way!
As they drove through the neighborhood, they called the sales team and were able to schedule an appointment the very the next day. According to Kara, “As we toured the model and the site during our appointment, we fell in love with the homes and knew we wanted to live here. Because the community is new construction, we knew we would have less to worry about with our home and we were excited to be able to pick the finishes and upgrades. However, Taylor and I were nervous about the mortgage process so we took the first step and received a preapproval so we could be confident in our purchase decision. We were super excited when the stars aligned and we were pre-approved to purchase our new home!”
The homes at The Brownstones at New Visions start in the $350,000’s, and include 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a 1-car garage. Nestled in a private alcove in the booming heart of Brick Township, the location of this community cannot be beat. “We love everything about our new home. It’s spacious enough for our family which includes two dogs, and the Home Owners Association is a plus, as we won’t have to worry about exterior maintenance, landscaping, or shoveling snow. It’s near everything we need like shopping, dining, and the beach. We can even walk to a lot of these places, and to top it all off, the neighbors are welcoming and friendly. Working with the sales staff was fantastic, and they are very helpful. They were always available to answer our questions and even sent us pictures as our home was being built. We expected a few bumps in the road, but everything went super smooth and it was almost too easy! We can’t wait to move in next month,” Flanders continues.
