HOW ABOUT A GREAT REAL ESTATE STORY? -- EPCON CONDOS COLUMBIA SC (PGV)

PEACH GROVE VILLAS, AN EPCON COMMUNITY --- ALMOST 50% UNDER CONTRACT

With all the talk about a real estate downturn, Peach Grove Villas has become a Columbia success story. Since they started taking contracts about a year ago, 45 homes have been put under contract. Residents have already started moving in and 16 families currently call Peach Grove Villas home. By the end of summer, we project that 25 families will live at the brand new community!

In these turbulent times, it is nice to see a success story right here in Columbia, SC. "The demand has been extraordinary," said sales manager Daniel Elmaleh. "Demand for the homes has outpaced the construction schedule. We had only planned on building 24 homes in 2009; but we have already increased that to 28 and we are about to move the bar to 32 homes. That would be our max for the year as we never build more than a certain number of homes at a time - to keep up the quality."

"Our success has been for a three-fold reason," Elmaleh added. "First, we provide exceptional customer service. Second, we focus on our use of quality materials - what many of our buyers are accustomed to in their larger single-family homes they are leaving. Lastly, we work with the customer to customize the home for them. We try our best to make the whole experience be exactly what the customer wants from the moment they come in till long after they live in the home. I think people like that."

Peach Grove Villas is a community of 100 Single-Story maintenance free homes on Earth Road, just outside of Woodcreek Farms and 1.5 miles from The Village at Sandhill. The community will be gated and features a clubhouse, a pool and a fitness center as well as a large natural area. Epcon Communites are built in 32 states, including 15 communities in South Carolina.
