These days, most people don’t take the concept of “home” lightly. If you’ve worked hard for what you have, you understand that the home is a place that’s not merely designed to reflect personal style; it’s also meant to reflect values and heritage. With that in mind, Heritage Building & Development introduces a community of Chula Vista new homes that captures this truth beautifully. The neighborhood is called Santa Rita.

This community features two story homes with three residences (ranging from 2,440 to 2,834 square feet) from which you can choose, and it’s one of the newest, most talked-about developments within the San Diego County suburban paradise of Otay Ranch. Bedrooms range from four to five, ensuring that there’s plenty of room for the whole family in these single family homes. With prices starting in the mid $400,000’s, Santa Rita at Otay Ranch is appropriately priced for Chula Vista new homes of this caliber.

Sure, there are best practices for homebuilders, home sellers (as in real estate agents), and homebuyers…but what if you’re simply a home seeker? In other words, you’re a prospective homebuyer who’s still looking at homes to determine what’s best for your family? There are best practices for you, too. California West Communities, who developed popular communities of Rancho Santa Fe new homes like Crosby Villas, lays out some best practices methods for determining your:

Location: The experts at Crosby Villas expert you suggest a location that has the amenities, schools and overall environment that you feel comfortable in. You may want to visit several places at different times of the day, and even talk to local residents to get a feel for the area.” This can be a great way to decide whether you like the neighbors, too.

Needs: The experts tell us that when considering the purchase of any home, the needs of your family are paramount. If a home meets one or more major needs of your family, there are times that a higher cost may be worth it. Also consider whether the floorplan fits your lifestyle, in terms of the number of children you have, their ages, etc.

Homebuilder: 

First and foremost: Are they in good standing with their owners? Crosby Villas consultants recommend asking friends who have used the homebuilder about their own level of satisfaction, no matter how long they have been living in that builder’s home. Another idea is to check local and/or national news stories to look deeper into a builder’s reputation (Googling is the easiest way).
