The Future of Home Buying Arrives in Naples

NAPLES, Fla., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — House X today announced Naples, Florida as one of the pilot cities to launch the American Dream 2021, expanding home…

NAPLES, Fla., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — House X today announced Naples, Florida as one of the pilot cities to launch the American Dream 2021, expanding home ownership; featuring over 40,000 new, healthier, energy-efficient homes across the country valued at over $18 Billion with up to $364 million in stimulus by providing home buyers free renewable energy and a discounted mortgage.

The virtual home buying event is limited to selected markets in the United States–admission is free to consumers. Free stimulus incentives apply to all contracts executed from January 27-April 15, 2021 for registered home buyers.

The Naples Pilot includes: 

  • Over 1,030 new homes in over 50 communities with 141 homes ready for quick move-in
  • Renewable electricity at zero cost to registered home buyers 
  • 1% discounted mortgage for the first 12 months, followed by either 14 or 29 years of fixed-rate record low mortgage rate on FDA conforming loans
  • Local Impact:
    • Potential reduction in carbon emissions–equivalent of removing 2,266 gas-powered cars off the road per year 
    • Potential free stimulus for renewable energy= $9.27 million going back into the local economy 

WHY: The purpose of the event is to expand home ownership by educating consumers on the advantages of smart, healthier, sustainable homes that are more efficient, lower carbon footprint and less expensive to own, operate, protect and maintain – lowering total cost of ownership. The home is more important than ever since the onset of the pandemic and the trend was a highlight at CES with smart home technology with a focus on hygiene, cleanliness, energy-efficiency and sustainability.

The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) is finding more and more evidence that the pandemic is changing America’s home buying plans. Rose Quint writes in NAHB’s Eye on Housing Blog that the percentage of those households considering purchasing a home within the next year took the largest jump in the history of the association’s Housing Trends Report.

The new administration is also launching efforts to expand home ownership and offset costs through a proposed tax incentive. The proposal states its purpose to:

«Help families buy their first homes and build wealth by creating a new refundable, advanceable tax credit of up to $15,000. Biden’s new First Down Payment Tax Credit will help families offset the costs of homebuying and help millions of families lay down roots for the first time. Building off of a temporary tax credit expanded as part of the Recovery Act, this tax credit will be permanent and advanceable, meaning that homebuyers receive the tax credit when they make the purchase instead of waiting to receive the assistance when they file taxes the following year.»

HOW:

  • The Smart Mortgage™: House X has partnered with a leading mortgage lender to create a special below-market mortgage; a one percent discounted mortgage for the first 12 months of a 15- or 30-year fixed rate conforming mortgage. 
  • The Healthier Home: In collaboration with Delos, every home buyer will receive a multi-room advanced air purification system for their new home upon move-in, helping reduce particles that carry airborne bacteria, viruses and allergens.
  • The Location Report™: Nothing will impact the financial picture of a home as much as its location. With custom insights available nowhere else, the House X Location Report reveals 300+ insights about any address in America. It is free to registered home shoppers.
  • The RESNET Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index is the nationally recognized system for inspecting and calculating a home’s energy performance. Similar to a MPG sticker for cars, except for new homes.

WHEN: American Dream 2021 Pilot Program will include free stimulus incentives on fully executed purchase contracts between January 27 – April 15, 2021.

WHERE: American Dream 2021 is limited to home purchases in selected pilot cities available on houseX.com.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — It’s no surprise to anyone that the last year has changed the landscape in cities all across the United States in a myriad of ways. Those in the hospitality industry have greatly felt the impact of the current environment and are critical to help economic and social recovery.

Although it may seem counterintuitive, there’s no better time to make positive life changes than during a period of uncertainty. And in a city like Cleveland, with a rich and diverse history, a strong work force and world-class healthcare systems, we are looking to welcome back all those that have left the nest for new experiences, as well as those looking for an incredible city to plant roots in. The stage is set for brand new ventures, and with the right talented, vibrant minds to bring new visions to life, the opportunities are endless.

This progress and push towards the future has already created new and exciting careers across the board. Restaurants like The Last Page have been on the hunt for great talent for months and have found success in Ohio transplants all across the country ready to come home, looking for a better quality of life. It’s not only the native Ohioans who have found success in coming to the forest city. Chef Brad Race recently relocated to the Cleveland area from Los Angeles to join the team at The Last Page & Kind of One Concepts (the group behind TLP) as head of culinary. Before relocating to Cleveland, Brad was Executive Chef of Catch Los Angeles, a restaurant that is consistently considered one of the best dining establishments in the nation.

«Growing up in Cleveland, I didn’t truly appreciate how much this city had to offer but after living in Miami, Los Angeles and part time in New York City, I realized that Cleveland is the best location to build my career as an entrepreneur and raise a family. Anyone looking to relocate or move home to Cleveland, we welcome you at The Last Page and Kind of One Concepts» said Todd Leebow, founder of Kind of One Concepts.

With the future looking brighter, but still uncertain, living in an area with diverse neighborhoods, a high quality of life with a relatively low cost of living and job stability is more important than ever. The opportunities Cleveland can offer its residents change and evolve on a daily basis, and the pull to be in such a dynamic city has never been stronger.  The time to make Cleveland home again or for the first time has never looked better.

About Kind of One Concepts

Kind of One Concepts, based in Cleveland OH, creates and operates original hospitality brands. KOOC believes that all experiences start with the guest first. At Kind of One, each concept is truly a one of one.

Senators introduce ‘Neighborhood Homes Investment Act’ to expand homeownership opportunities and revitalize communities

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Bipartisan legislation introduced today would create a new federal tax credit to fuel development and rehabilitation of single-family homes and attract $100 billion in development activity to underserved rural and urban communities across the country.

The <a target="_blank"…

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Bipartisan legislation introduced today would create a new federal tax credit to fuel development and rehabilitation of single-family homes and attract $100 billion in development activity to underserved rural and urban communities across the country.

The Neighborhood Homes Investment Act (NHIA), introduced by Senators Ben Cardin (D-MD) and Rob Portman (R-OH), and co-sponsored by Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), Senator Todd Young (R-IN), Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) and Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH), would encourage private investment in an estimated 500,000 homes that currently cannot be developed or rehabilitated because the costs to do so exceed the value of the home.  The tax credit supports development of homes in rural communities struggling with the costs of new construction, as well as the rehabilitation of homes in blighted urban communities, where vacant homes depress property values and thwart broader revitalization efforts.   

NHIA is designed to address a difficult market reality in many communities: the cost for developers to acquire and rehab blighted properties or build new homes exceeds what they could earn when they sell the homes. The NHIA tax credit would help them fill that gap, up to 35 percent of the eligible development cost, and thereby reduce their risk of loss. It would encourage investment, create affordable homeownership opportunities, and support widespread revitalization of urban, suburban, and rural communities.

«Everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to call home and an opportunity to build equity and wealth for their family. Our bipartisan tax credit will drive investment and revitalize neighborhoods in Baltimore and across Maryland while keeping them affordable for low- and moderate-income families,» said Senator Cardin. «By building on the success of the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) and New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC), we can attract investment in communities that need it most. President Biden’s campaign supported the Neighborhood Homes Investment Act, a strong sign of the growing support and need for this program now.» 

«The Neighborhood Homes Investment Act provides a tax credit to rehabilitate blighted homes and help revitalize neighborhoods across America and Ohio,» said Senator Portman. «As we continue to battle the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, this tax credit will encourage opportunity and investment in neighborhoods that are often home to vulnerable populations and marked by stagnant housing markets, foreclosures, and blighted or vacant homes. I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this new incentive which will work in tandem with the New Markets Tax Credit, Opportunity Zones, and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit to help Ohioans by providing desirable housing and generating new opportunities for their residents.» 

NHIA tax credits would be awarded to project sponsors—which could include developers, lenders, or local governments—through statewide competitions administered by state housing finance agencies.  Sponsors could use the credits to raise investment capital for their projects, and the investors could claim the credits against their federal income tax when the homes are sold and occupied by moderate- and middle-income homebuyers.

«Rehabilitating existing homes and building new ones can prevent or even reverse a trajectory of decline in a community,» said Julia Gordon, president of the National Community Stabilization Trust. «With affordable housing inventory extremely tight right now, this program offers a win-win of revitalizing neighborhoods and increasing housing supply, thereby providing new opportunities for families to access homeownership.»

The Neighborhood Homes Coalition estimates that the NHIA would support a substantial economic impact over the next 10 years. In addition to the 500,000 homes that would be rehabbed and $100 billion in development activity, estimated impacts of this legislation include:

  • 785,714 jobs in construction and construction-related industries
  • $42.9 billion in wages and salaries
  • $29.3 billion in federal, state, and local tax revenues and fees

In addition, by increasing the stock of moderately priced single-family homes, the NHIA will help create homeownership and wealth building opportunities for minority and first-time homebuyers.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — With a greater push to environmentally sustainable driving in recent years, many auto manufacturers have moved toward developing vehicles with lower emissions and greener fuel efficiency, and this can pay off for some California drivers with the California Clean Fuel Rewards available at San Francisco Toyota.

Shoppers who are interested in getting behind the wheel of eligible new Battery Electric (BEV) or Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) can earn rebates when purchasing or leasing one of those models at San Francisco Toyota. This is based on a push from the California Air Resources Board to help encourage more ecologically friendly driving habits in the state. These rebates are in addition to any other applicable federal, state and local incentives, rebates and tax credits, making for the potential to receive remarkable financial rewards.

Two new Toyota models are eligible for this rebate: the Prius Prime and the RAV4 Prime. The former offers a rebate of $900.11, while the latter has a rebate totaling $1,500. The RAV4 Prime is an all-new model introduced in 2020 as a 2021 model and is the quickest and most powerful RAV4 to date. In order to qualify, the vehicle must be registered in California and the person purchasing or leasing the vehicle must be a resident of California. Not all shoppers will qualify, so those interested are urged to contact the dealership for full details and any limitations.

San Francisco Toyota is taking necessary precautions to help ensure a safe environment for visitors.

Honda of Santa Maria Offers Test Drive Car Delivery and Pick Up

SANTA MARIA, Calif., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — After a period of brief closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many car dealerships adapted to new conditions by offering services that were previously unheard of. The Honda of Santa Maria dealership has adopted the practice of offering delivery for customers who want to test-drive vehicles.

Previously, guests had to schedule an appointment and visit the dealership in person to experience a test drive, but by offering delivery, guests can now have the car they want to test drive sent to them at their home or business. To alleviate concerns of the delivered vehicle carrying the virus, the dealership follows CDC guidelines when sanitizing vehicles at the beginning and end of every test drive.

The dealership sends a driver in the test drive vehicle to the address specified by the customer. Upon arrival, the vehicle is sanitized and prepared for the test drive. When the customer has completed their test drive, they have the option to purchase the vehicle online or over the phone. If the customer does not decide to purchase the vehicle right away, the delivery driver will re-sanitize the vehicle and bring it back to the dealership.

The delivery system applies to those who buy a car from the dealership by phone or internet as well. The car will be delivered and sanitized in the same way so customers at high risk of infection or who would rather not visit the dealership in person can still buy a car if they want to.

Customers who want to learn more about the car delivery program at Honda of Santa Maria can contact the dealership by calling (805) 922-4600, chatting with a representative online or by visiting in-person at 2175 South Bradley Road, Santa Maria, California 93455.
