On behalf of the 650 members of the Builders Association of North Central Florida (BANCF), welcome to the 2008 Fall Parade of Homes™! This year’s Fall Parade offers an exciting opportunity to preview many different brand new home styles throughout many subdivisions in Alachua County. You will see the latest in housing trends, decorative styles, and neighborhood designs.

As a long-term investment, homeownership is still one of the best investments for individual households. Like all markets, housing markets inevitably have their ups and downs. However, home ownership has a track record that is virtually unmatched by any other purchase in terms of its real benefits. If you are looking for a place to live and for a solid long-term investment, now is a GREAT time to buy a home!

See what wonderful opportunities are available in our community during the Fall Parade of Homes™. The homes will be open 1-6 pm on Saturday and Sunday, October 11th & 12th and October 18th & 19th. Use the locator map on pages 28 & 29 to begin your tour.

We hope you enjoy the 2008 Fall Parade of Homes. If you have any questions, please call the BANCF Office, (352) 372-5649 or take a look at the Fall Parade Homes on our website at www.bancf.com.

It’s a Great Time to Buy!
