lockportlegend.com local living the Lockport Legend | February 7, 2019 | 23 Distinctive Home Builders Presents Quality Built Affordable Homes At Cedar Creek in Joliet Why Pay Rent? New homes with the shortest build times on the market from the low $200’s Distinctive Home Builders recently began preconstruction sales at Cedar Creek in Joliet. Homeowners there will enjoy a low-priced quality built home and low Joliet taxes from one of the area’s leading home builders. Cedar Creek is located on Millsdale Road, one half mile west of Rt. 53 and south of Laraway Road. Until on-site models are completed this summer, interested persons are invited to visit Distinctive Homes Sales and Information Center in Manhattan on Rt. 52 for details and to tour homes. “Handcrafted semi-custom homes are unheard of in the area in this price range,” said Bryan Nooner, president of Frankfort-based Distinctive Home Builders. “These homes provide a great value and in many cases will be less than paying rent. This opens up home ownership opportunities to those who were locked out of the market previously. Although construction is underway, pre-construction savings are still available.” Affordable, conveniently located ranch and two-story homes feature floor plans ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 square feet in size with two to four bedrooms and brick, frame and stone exteriors. Prices start from the low $200’s and some home sites back up to Cedar Creek Park. “These homes appeal to two markets: Empty nesters that are downsizing with our ranches and an outstanding value for first time homebuyers and families wanting the most space for their money,” added Nooner. Cedar Creek school children attend Elwood School District 203 for K – 8 and high school age children attend Joliet Township Central High School within District 204, which was recently named the College Board’s Advanced Placement District of the Year. Saint Joseph Academy is also nearby. “We have closed the gap of getting what you want and getting what you need in a new home significantly by including additional features that our buyers told us were most important to them,” said Nooner. “Now is the best time to buy, because you can still take advantage of preconstruction prices that range from the low $200s which makes this a terrific new home value.” Bryan Nooner, president of Distinctive Home Builders, has built thousands of singlefamily homes throughout the south and southwest suburbs over the past 30 years. Distinctive Home Builders is dedicated to giving their customers the best home buying experience. Distinctive works to achieve a home delivery goal of 90 days with zero punch list items for its homeowners. Before closing, each home undergoes an industry-leading checklist that ensures each home measures up to the firm’s high quality standards. Distinctive performs numerous quality control checks throughout the building process and adheres to a nearly 1,500 point formal checklist that project managers certify. “Having a set of measurable, identifiable standards that our craftsmen are expected to maintain is critical to upholding high quality standards and ensures delivering a Zero Defect Home to our homeowners,” according to Distinctive president, Bryan Nooner. During the construction process, there are prescheduled times set for site visitationsatvariouslandmark stages of construction. Communication is an important aspect to maintaining an overall positive experience during the construction process. Therefore, all Distinctive customers have the Project Manager’s e-mail address and cell phone number, as well as, access to the secure online customer portal where pictures and logs show the continued progress on their home. Customers have access to the online portal through the Distinctive Homebuilders App that can be easily downloaded to any smartphone or tablet. “Our customers simply download our Distinctive Home Builders app and they are in touch with their new home 24/7 from anywhere in the world. The app allows our customers to see the progress of their home and access all their documents at any time” Nooner explained. “Our customers really appreciate the integration of social media sites within the app allowing them to easily share photos and updates of their new home with family and friends,” he concluded. Nooner added that all homes are highly energy efficient. Every home built will have upgraded wall and ceiling insulation values with energy efficient windows and high efficiency furnaces. Before homeowners move into their new home, Distinctive Home Builders conducts a blower door test that pressurizes the home to ensure that each home passes a set of very stringent Energy Efficiency guidelines. Cedar Creek is served by major thoroughfares such as IL Rte. 53, I-55 and I-80. Locational amenities for Cedar Creek homeowners are two large hospital complexes nearby: Silver Cross Hospital and Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center; College education nearby including Lewis University, the University of St. Francis and Joliet Junior College. Numerous restaurants and attractions such as the Chicagoland Speedway, the Joliet Splash Station and the Haunted Trails Family Entertainment Center, to name a few. Visit the Memorial Walkway at the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood comprised of 982 acres honoring our veterans.
