Why Pay Rent?
Immediate Occupancy Homes available now from the mid $200’s
Distinctive Home Builders Presents Quality Built Affordable Homes at Cedar Creek in Joliet
Distinctive Home Builders
recently began preconstruction
sales at
Cedar Creek in Joliet.
Homeowners there will
enjoy competitively priced
quality built homes 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. Our
model home visitor center
is open for viewing.
“Handcrafted semi-custom
homes are unheard
of in the area in this price
range,” said Bryan Nooner,
president of Frankfortbased
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 twostory
homes feature floor
plans ranging from 1,500
to 3,000 square feet in
size with two to four bedrooms
and front elevation
brick exteriors with the
option to add stone accents.
Prices start from
the mid $200’s and some
home sites back up to Cedar
Creek Park. We have
four immediate occupancy
homes available at our
Cedar Creek community -
3 ranch homes and a twostory
home.
“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 mid
$200s which makes this a
terrific new home value.”
Bryan Nooner, president
of Distinctive Home
Builders, has built thousands
of single-family
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.
A home delivery with
zero punch list items is an
expectation Distinctive
has for its homeowners.
Before closing, each home
undergoes an industryleading
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 visitations at various
landmark 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
