Customer letter......
First, I really want to say how awesome all of you were throughout my entire purchase/building process. This was a little bit of a scary adventure for me since it was the first time that I have done this on my own. Thanks to all of you for being patient and helpful. I do want to say that my experience as a whole, with Royal Dominion was a positive one.
I have previously had two homes built with well know builders in the Richmond area. I would be very hard pressed to say that either of those experiences were positive. I was fully expecting to have poor construction, delays, and excuses with this build. I was more than pleasantly surprised that none of that happened. Things were done just as I had requested in my contract, and anything that I wanted changed was done. My closing even happened on time. Unheard of!!!
I was very happy with the choices that I had for carpet, cabinets, etc.
I even loved the standard bathroom fixtures and towel bars. I have never built a house where I didn't have to buy and replace all of those things.
The craftsmanship is also excellent. My dad (who is a perfectionist) commented on how well it was built. That's a huge compliment!
Thank you so much for making this experience one that was pleasant and enjoyable. I will most definitely recommend Royal Dominion Homes to my friends. I look forward to many happy years in my beautiful townhouse.
Sincerely,
Dari

Dear Royal Dominion Homes....
From start to finish, I had assistance with every step of my process, which helped a lot because I truly had no idea what I was doing as a first time home buyer. Jason and Judy even helped me pick out the colors for my new home! Both Jason and Judy endured endless questions (as I was a newbie) with a smile, providing me with all of the answers I needed to make informed decisions about what I was searching for in a home.
Justin stayed in close contact with me regarding the progress on my house. Any calls that I made to him were returned the same day, most often within the same hour. He truly is one of the most meticulous construction supervisors that I have ever met – which says a lot, considering I come from a family of builders! The quality of the workmanship in my home far exceeded my expectations…I’m used to seeing the “cookie cutter construction” that has become the norm in the construction industry. I was blown away by Justin’s acute attention to detail. Most items that I noticed that were needing to be addressed, he had already put on a punch list of his own, to be addressed immediately!
Each person that I’ve dealt with on my journey has been sincerely kind, very knowledgeable, and they’ve ALL shared my enthusiasm and excitement to be moving into my new home. Judy is one of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. I’ve never seen her without a beaming smile on her face. Jason will definitely figure out a way (even if you think there isn’t one) to financially get you into your new home….comfortably!!!
I have been very pleased with the efficiency and high level of customer service that I have received from Royal Dominion Homes. I highly recommend for anyone who is considering purchasing a new home (especially first time homebuyers) to start their search with Royal Dominion Homes – you won’t want to look elsewher
Sarah.

New Home vs. Foreclosure.
The Benefits of Buying a
New Home vs. Foreclosure
New Home vs. Foreclosure
A common misconception among homebuyers is the idea that the best home values in today's market are foreclosures. While there are some good deals on homes in foreclosure, for most buyers, buying a new home is actually the better value. unless you’re prepared to pay cash for your next home, with today’s interest rates, piece of mind, your dream home design, and spotless new community could only be a difference of as little as $50 a month – less than a night out for a meal a month.
What makes buying a new home a better value?
For starters, when you purchase a new home you are protected by a warranty. If anything goes wrong, the home is covered by the builder's one-year limited warranty on workmanship and materials, as well as a ten-year structural warranty. You have peace of mind knowing there won't be any unanticipated out-of-pocket repair costs to absorb.
Another benefit of buying a new home is the special incentive programs many builders currently offer to assist buyers. Some of these incentives, such as Help with financing or help with closing costs, can save you thousands of dollars and make it easier for you to qualify for your home purchase.
If you're after a quick response to your offer, a new home is a smart way to go. In most cases, you're dealing directly with the builder, which ensures a prompt reply. As long as the home is ready for occupancy, you can also count on closing escrow in a timely manner;
Of course, the ultimate benefit of buying new is having the opportunity to purchase your dream home. You are the first owner and everything is pristine, sparkling, and brand new. In many cases you'll be able to customize the home, selecting items like cabinetry, countertops, and flooring. Rather than making due with someone else's choices, you have the advantage of living in a home and a neighborhood that truly reflects your taste, lifestyle and personality.
Are you prepared to roll the dice on a foreclosure?
Most buyers don't realize there are a variety of risks associated with buying a foreclosure. Perhaps the biggest concern for any potential buyer should be the fact that properties in foreclosure are sold "as is." This means there's no warranty protection and more importantly, there's no stipulation on disclosures on the property."
By law, conventional sales on new or resale homes require full disclosure of any details or drawbacks on the property. The seller can be held liable if a problem arises as a result of an issue that wasn't fully disclosed at the time of the sale. With foreclosures, it's always "let the buyer beware." When you purchase a foreclosure you have no recourse against the seller if there are construction defects, environmental hazards, or problems of any kind with the home.
Additionally, when you purchase a foreclosure you can't always be sure of the condition of the home. Many homeowners stop taking care of the property when they realize they will be losing the home. Often, maintenance issues are not immediately visible, for example, having the water turned off for a long period of time can result in problems with seals and plumbing fixtures throughout the home. Buyers are forced to come out of pocket to bring the home up to an acceptable standard of living.
Then there's the issue of price. You may be surprised to discover that the below market listing price is not what the property actually sells for. Foreclosure properties often attract multiple offers, with professional investors stepping in and bidding up the prices of many below-market foreclosure listings. What initially looks like an incredible deal ends up selling at a significantly higher price. Keep in mind that many foreclosure properties may also require a substantial additional investment after the sale to replace damaged fixtures, missing appliances, stained or worn-out carpets and dead landscaping.
Another factor to consider is you won't receive incentives like those builders offer on financing and closing costs. In terms of financing, you're on your own when you purchase a foreclosure. In most cases, you'll need to have your financing in place before bidding on a foreclosed property.
Finally, for many, there's still a stigma attached to buying a foreclosure-a feeling of buying someone else's problems or benefiting from another family's misfortune. Those who practice Feng Shui may fear the negative energy in the house could impact their family and cause bad luck.
What about short sales?
A short sale occurs when homeowners who want to avoid bankruptcy or foreclosure proceedings gain lender approval to sell the home for less than they owe. In a short sale situation, you are at the mercy of the lender. Even if the owner accepts your offer, the lender has the final say. Obtaining lender approval is a time consuming process, which can take upwards of thirty to sixty days. Short sales require patience and may result in disappointment since lenders frequently reject offers that are below market value.
The bottom line is peace of mind.
The reality is it's a great time to be a homebuyer. Prices are down, interest rates are extremely attractive, and the selection of available homes couldn't be better. If you're a risk taker, a foreclosure or even a short sale could be right for you. For the rest of us, when making an investment as significant as a home purchase, the bottom line is peace of mind. Buying a new home from a trusted builder in today's market promises the best of both worlds-outstanding value and peace of mind.
