Down Payment: $200

Equity Earned: $35,000

“My down payment was a whopping $200.  I was very happy with that.  And now I have about $35,000 in equity,” says Don. “The people at Homestead are great.  I kept changing the look of my house and Homestead was very accommodating.”

“I’ve looked at other home packages and they all used cheap quality stuff.  But Homestead doesn’t.  The construction of the home was excellent.  The walls were square even though they came in panels – I was kind of worried about that, but everything went together real easy.  The lumber and materials were all top quality.”

“When I ran into a problem with the foundation and the engineer required special footings, Homestead increased my construction loan to cover the extra cost.  With a traditional construction loan, that money would have come out of my pocket,” Don says.

“Homestead Homes is an excellent opportunity to build your new home.  For me, it was also a great stepping stone back into the building business.  I’d definitely do it again,” says Don.
