Hot, but Not Bothered!

I enjoy a certain feeling of satisfaction, confidence and affirmation when my generator overcomes a power failure.  Same thing as my four wheel drive muscles through mud and heavy snow.  It feels good to be ahead of the curve and in control when the elements hit.

It’s uncomfortably hot today.   I am so happy that I have geothermal conditioning!  And the coolest thing about it is I get this same warm feeling on extreme winter days and each time I open my electric bill.  Comfort in my 4,500 square foot home costs less than my old 1,200 square foot place. I love it.

I put my geothermal system in 16 years ago.  I’ve enjoyed a lot of “assurance moments” in that time and look forward to many more.

I feel even better when I think about how many systems we’ve done for our clients over the years.  The first was 1991. I’ve lost count, but I’ll bet over the past 22 years we’ve installed more geothermal systems than any other area builder and in every imaginable size and configuration.   The photo on Facebook shows one of the units that conditions a 20,000 square foot home.

I love my geothermal system, but knowing so many in the Visnic Homes family do too, makes me feel especially warm inside.  This is the most satisfying assurance moment of all. 

Stay cool!

The Best of Everything...

I last posted that optimism is blooming into robust activity in the areas most prominent neighborhoods.

A resurgence starting close-in makes sense.  There is no replacement for the sense of community, schools, commute and proximity to family and friends that makes these locations so valuable.
Further, interest in design efficiency and leading energy performance has more buyers considering modestly sized lots common to established neighborhoods.
For many, it’s a perfect fit.  Families on the rise have access to great schools, a reasonable commute and the charm of a mature suburban landscape.

Active empty-nester’s stay close to family and local conveniences, and enjoy the privacy of a single family home.  For them, a condo is a little too cozy.  We’re asked for low maintenance efficiency, a main level master suite and plenty of elbow room for the grandkids. A garden area is also attractive.

Inspired, we collaborated with a nationally renowned architect to develop “right-sized” homes, efficiently designed without compromise to luxury living.  Just right for compact lot sizes without consuming them.

We’re thrilled with the results and bundled our design ideas into a Downtown Collection.  They’re customizable of course, and starting from scratch is always an option.  We just wanted to spark imagination and show how when it comes to home, you really could achieve the best of everything.

If you would like to see the plans, send me an e-mail or call the office.  Whether you are in the market or not, I’d love your feedback.
