Built by a Certified Professional Home Builder
May 30, 2008

ATLANTA – With the introduction of two new plans at Vineyard Gate, Richport Properties,builder of Atlanta area communities, now offers the most affordable, single-family detached new homes built by a Certified Professional Home Builder (CPHB) in the north metro Atlanta area. The new Newberry and Columbia plans offer 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and are offered for $129,900 and $127,900 respectively. The Newberry is a traditional ranch plan. The Columbia is a cottage-style ranch home with rear garage.

“The current market for real estate provides renters an outstanding opportunity to become home owners,” says Bill Boyajan, Chief Operating Officer, Richport Properties. “With values like this and interest rates near an all-time low we look forward to welcoming new home owners at Vineyard Gate – an affordable and green community!”

Offering new homes in Jackson County, Vineyard Gate was the first conservation community in Braselton and features innovative storm water management that disturbs less natural area than typical subdivisions in Atlanta area communities. As a result 30% of the site is left “green” including walking trails, pocket parks and preserved woods. The homes feature Hardi-plank siding, traditional detailing, patios and spacious floorplans. Homeowners of these new homes in Jackson County enjoy a low-maintenance lifestyle with lawn maintenance and trash service included in their HOA fees.

On May 23, 2008 a search was conducted** of detached homes listed with First Multiple Listing Service that are new or under construction and built by a CPHB. The area searched included new homes in Jackson County, as well as Cobb, Cherokee, North Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Forsyth, Hall and Barrow Counties. The listings found in these Atlanta area communities in these counties were the two new models under construction in Vineyard Gate. Vineyard Gate is conveniently located just off Interstate 85 in the Town of Braselton. Phone calls to Atlanta are local and Vineyard Gate is minutes from Gwinnett Mall, Mall of Georgia, Gainesville and other places of employment.

To attain CPHB certification, Richport Properties met a variety of criteria, including having at least three years of home building experience, offering an approved limited warranty and mandatory binding arbitration, maintaining appropriate insurance coverage, and providing a total of 14 references from homeowners, trade contractors, suppliers and financial institutions. CPHB’s also complete 16 hours of continuing education each year to maintain certification.

To get to Vineyard Gate travel north on I-85 to exit 129 (Highway 53). Turn left, crossing back over I-85. Take the first right on Chardonnay Trace. Pass through an older subdivision to the Vineyard Gate entrance.

** An additional search was performed in AtlantaNewHomesDirectory.com (Vineyard Gate was the only community offering homes from the $120’s) and in Georgia MLS (no homes were found below $130,000 built by a Certified Professional Home Builder).
