Recently built, one level homes in Harrisonburg under $200K
By Scott Rogers  •  May 28, 2014     
Founders Way Condos

Guess what, they largely don't exist....with one exception.

If you were a home buyer looking for a home under $200K with everything on one level.....and you wanted something built in the past 20 years so you wouldn't have too much maintenance, you wouldn't find many options.

Nearly all of the properties built in the past 20 years for less than $200K (with 2+ beds and 2+ baths) are two-story townhouses.

The one exception.... Founders Way Condominiums.

These brand new 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condos offer an open floor plan with upgrades including hardwood laminate flooring, granite countertops and more.

Check out some photos here and here.

Bing, Bang, Boom. Three quick sales at Founders Way Condos, new building coming Fall 2012
By Scott Rogers  •  June 7, 2012     
Founders Way

As referenced a few weeks ago, demand is growing for new homes --- and it has been a busy (past) month at Founders Way Condominiums, with three condos selling -- leaving only two remaining condos in the first building -- both ground level condos.

The good news is that another building will be under construction shortly, with a few slight modifications to the floor plans, but with the same overall strong points that have been appealing to buyers:
  • brand new one-level living at a low price point
  • all exterior and grounds maintenance is performed by the condo association
  • high speed internet and expansive cable package at a low cost through the condo association
  • open floor plan (some with lofts) that provide a very different feel than a two-story townhome
The last two condos in the first building are available for you to purchase, or you can reserve a condo in the upcoming building.

When buying a condo, make sure it's FHA approved
By Scott Rogers  •  December 12, 2011     
Many condo buyers would like to purchase their condo using an FHA loan, and some condo communities are no longer approved for FHA loans.  Here's the news from last month....

Condo news

How might that affect you here in Harrisonburg?  Well, one of the newest and most exciting condo communities in Harrisonburg is Founders Way.  OK, yes, I do represent the developer and thus might be a bit biased -- but that's what we hear from the people who have bought at Founders Way too!  So, if you're interested in buying at Founders Way, can you get an FHA loan?

FHA at Founders Way

That's right folks, you can still (quite easily) buy at Founders Way using an FHA loan.  So if you're looking for an exciting new condo community in Harrisonburg, look no further than Founders Way, featuring:
  • brand new one-level living at a low price point
  • all exterior and grounds maintenance is performed by the condo association
  • high speed internet and expansive cable package at a low cost through the condo association

Founders Way Condos are APPROVED for FHA financing!
By Scott Rogers  •  May 11, 2011     
Buying a condo at Founders Way couldn't be any easier! 

Founders Way Condos

As of this week, Founders Way Condos are approved for FHA financing.  These spacious condos have wonderfully open floor plans with 2 or 3 bedrooms, and start at only $149K. 

Buyers at Founders Way are often attracted to:
  • brand new one-level living at a low price point
  • all exterior and grounds maintenance is performed by the condo association
  • high speed internet and expansive cable package at a low cost through the condo association
  • open floor plan (some with lofts) that provide a very different feel than a two-story townhome
Current incentives also make it a great time to buy at Founders Way:
  • Free upgrade to granite countertops in the kitchen
  • The builder will pay your association dues for the first year
  • The builder will pay up to $3,000 of purchaser's closing costs if the buyer uses Oguz Sengul at Wells Fargo (540-438-8899, oguz.sengul@wellsfargo.com)
But the BIG NEWS is that financing is now a breeze --- either with a conventional loan, or an FHA loan --- with as little as 3.5% down.   Find out more by contacting Oguz Sengul at Wells Fargo at 540-438-8899 or oguz.sengul@wellsfargo.com.

FHA Adjustable Rate Mortgages For Only 3.625%
By Scott Rogers  •  April 4, 2011     
FHA 5/1 ARM

As of today, you can obtain an amazing 3.625% interest rate on a 5/1 adjustable rate mortgage through FHA.  Until recently, I had thought that 30 year fixed rate mortgages were the only product offered through FHA, but Oguz Sengul  pointed out that FHA also offers a 5/1 ARM.

A "5/1 ARM" is a mortgage that has a fixed rate (3.625%) for five years, and then can adjust once every year.

If you anticipate only being in your home for 3, 4, 5 or 6 years, this can be a fantastic loan program to consider!

Founders Way Condos Proving Popular With Buyers
By Scott Rogers  •  January 13, 2011     
Full Disclosure: I represent the developer of Founders Way.

Harrisonburg home buyers haven't had too many condo options to choose from in the recent past if they actually wanted to live in the condo....
  • Hunters Ridge, Madison Manor and University Place are all student condominiums, but are primarily sold and purchased as investment properties -- primarily for college students.
  • Millwood Condominiums on Mosby Road started off as condos for owner occupants, but more and more were purchased by investors, or kept by the developer.  Owner occupant financing is now difficult for these properties because there are not enough owner occupants in the community.
  • Urban Exchange, home of 194 apartments (studio, 1 BR, 2 BR, 3 BR) in downtown Harrisonburg was to be developed as 96 apartments or rent and 98 condos for sale -- but the market intervened.  Renters were significantly more interested than buyers in committing to Urban Exchange, and the sales process was being pursued at a time when condo financing was quite difficult to obtain.
Founders Way Condos

Now, however, there is a new option in town --- Founders Way Condominiums.  The condos at Founders Way feature 2 or 3 bedrooms, and start at only $142,900 (see all pricing).  These newly built condos feature upscale kitchens, an open floor plan and spacious master suites -- think hardwood laminate floors, granite countertops, contemporary lighting fixtures, nine foot ceilings, decorative archways and colonnades, etc.

Oh, and quite a few of these new condos are selling!  The community will eventually consist of 72 condos -- but for now the first building of 12 has been constructed, and the condos are at various stages of completion.  Of the twelve condos in the first building at Founders Way....
Again, I may be slightly biased here, as I represent the developer --- but I think you'd be excited to see this new option for home buyers in Harrisonburg.

Let me know if you'd like a tour of Founders Way --- I'd be happy to meet you on site.  You can reach me at 540-578-0102 or scott@HarrisonburgHousingToday.com.

By Scott Rogers  •  October 11, 2010     
Founders Way

If you haven't stopped by Founders Way yet to see these newly finished condominiums, you might want to considering doing so this coming weekend during the SVBA Parade of Homes.  Founders Way won several awards including Realtors Choice, Best Interior, Best Exterior and Best Overall.

But let's give Founders Way some context.... There are lots of townhouses for sale in Harrisonburg priced around $160k, with 1300-1400 square feet.  The condos at Founders Way are similar ($160k, 1300-1400 SF) but they have some significant differences.
  • The 1,301 sf in a Founders Way condo are all on one level, so you don't have stairs eating into the square footage, and you have much larger open spaces.
  • The master suite in condos at Founders Way is fantastic --- with two walk-in closets, and a large bathroom!
  • You'll also enjoy features such as 9' ceilings, an extremely open floor plan with columns, a covered patio or deck, an actual laundry room, hardwood laminate flooring, and more.
Now to pricing ---
  • Second level condos at Founders Way (hint -- no steps -- easy access for those with limited mobility) are priced from $163k to $169k. 
  • First level condos at Founders Way are priced at only $143k-$149k! 
  • The loft units (3rd floor) feature a total of 1,703 SF, three bedrooms and three bathrooms, for $193k - $199k.
Below is a brief video taking you through the condos.  (here's the video link)
