What People are Saying about living here

I spoke with a couple who live here and they say they love living in the community, but they wouldn't choose an Alley home again. They say it's a bit weird entering your home from the alley and only having access to one side of your home.

If they could do it again, they'd still buy a home in the community, but they'd prefer to buy one of the standard front entrance homes.

Floorplans Available

What it covers:

Important Details to be aware of:

Customizing Your Pahlisch Home

There are essentially 3 different options as far as customization of your new Pahlisch Homes depending on when you purchase it in the stage of construction.

Finished Home (no choices):

• No choice, what you see is what you get.

"Before the Roof" Phase (cosmetic choices):

• Color choices on hard surfaces - Flooring,
• Interior paint,
• countertops and cabinets
• Electrical changes

Dirt Phase (structural and plumbing choices:

• Anything involving plumbing changes
• Larger doors downstairs  (8’)
• Gas piping, ie fireplace location, or outdoor barbecue plumbed in.
•  Mud set in the primary bathroom (What?)

THE BUYING PROCESS

Working with new home builders generally follow a pattern.

THE TIMELINE

You purchase the home 

Let's say you sign the offer for a home build that is projected to start construction on April 1.

You sign on Feb 1.

The Build time is approximately 6 months, but 8 months is budgeted for possible delays.

So, with a projected start date of April 1,

you're looking at a move in date of December 1.

Feb 1 - Docs signed, Offer accepted. The house will be yours.

By March 1 at the latest - Complete the design with Pahlisch's team to make the home exactly as you want it.

April 1 - Construction Begins

June 1 - Roof is on. 

October 10-20 - Notice to close of December is issued. You 

December 1 - Construction Completes

EARNEST MONEY AND DEPOSITS

Finished Home - 1% Earnest Money is owed within a few days of signing the contract.

Home in Progress - 1% earnest and 2% non-refundable deposit

Dirt - $1,000 earnest and 5% non-refundable deposit.

All upgrades - Pay half down which is non-refundable.

NOTICE TO CLOSE

You will have about 45-50 days notice of when the house will close. 

The close date is non-negotiable. 

Penalties for not making the payment on time are $200 per day for up to 10 days, at which point, you could lose your deposit. Of course, Pahlisch wants you to get your home, so they want to work with you to make it happen, but this clause is in their to protect themselves in case you can't pay.

The daily late fees are there to create an incentive from you delaying the move in process for whatever reason.
