OVERSIZED SITES AVAILABLE FOR LUXURY HOMES AT SUTTONDALE COMMUNITY IN FRANKFORT

FRANKFORT, IL (June 18, 2008) – Suttondale, an upscale, semi-custom home community located in a peaceful, country setting in Frankfort, has only eight oversized homesites remaining available for sale, announced Flaherty Builders. These homesites, which are over a half-acre in size, are situated on a rolling parcel of property that is perfect for the construction of a luxury dream home. Custom homes on these large homesites are priced per blueprint and semi-custom homes from Flaherty’s portfolio of homes offering with 2,700 to more than 4,000 square feet of living space are available from $399,900 to $495,900.

Suttondale is an exclusive custom/semi-custom home community set along curvilinear streets and private cul-de-sacs. All homesites include city sewer and water and have easy access to Nebraska Street, which conveniently leads to LaGrange Road (Route 45) and its numerous shops, restaurants and service centers.

The custom and semi-custom homes within Suttondale can be constructed to incorporate all of the amenities a homebuyer desires to be included into the family’s dream home. Hardwood floors, crown molding in formal dining rooms, granite countertops in the large gourmet kitchens, beautiful family rooms with custom masonry fireplaces, and luxurious master bedroom suites with whirlpools are just some of the features available in the homes.

Flaherty’s beautiful homes will typically feature architecturally attractive vaulted ceilings, three to four bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, living room, formal dining room, family room, kitchen, breakfast area, basement and 3-car garages. Flaherty will also build a custom home from a homeowner’s set of approved blueprints.

Many high-quality amenities are to be found at no additional price in a quality-built Flaherty home. Buyers with an eye for detail can expect to find oak trim and doors, masonry fireplaces, whirlpool tubs, furniture-quality oak cabinets, and hardwood flooring in the entry foyer, breakfast area and kitchen. Baths will consist of ceramic tile in the tub, shower areas and floors. With a generous appliance allowance from Flaherty Builders, buyers can select their own brand of appliances and have them installed in the spacious kitchens. Many of these homes include solid surface counter tops in the kitchen, but for an additional price, granite can be installed as a substitute.

Equally important to the decision to buy a home in Suttondale are the schools that serve the luxury community. Highly respected schools include the excellent grade school district of Frankfort and the highly acclaimed Lincoln Way East High School district. In addition, the community is only minutes from downtown Frankfort, Mokena or New Lenox and near transportation arteries Interstates 80 & 57, I-355 Tollway and Route 45. Chicago commuters will be pleased to know that a Metra train station is less than 3 miles away. For relaxation a variety of golf courses and parks are nearby.

To encourage families to purchase the few remaining homes in SuttonDale, Flaherty is offering a new sales program. The “Building Peace of Mind” program is designed for maximum flexibility, so that it can accommodate a variety of potential homebuyers. Homebuyers may choose from any of the five options offered:

1. “Existing Home Sale Plan” – If a buyer’s existing home doesn’t sell by the time they need to close on their new Flaherty home, the builder will cover the buyer’s existing mortgage and real estate taxes for up to 6 months for a maximum of $3,500 per month. Given that is takes 6-8 months to construct their new home, this option effectively gives homebuyers more than one year (12 to 14 months) to sell their home.

2. “Split The Difference Plan” – Flaherty will cover ½ the difference between the asking price and sale price of a homebuyer’s existing home up to a maximum of $20,000. The home must be listed with a preferred realtor and the asking price must be realistic in today’s market (verified by a preferred realtor or appraisal).

3. “Realtor Commission Covered” - Flaherty will cover the homebuyer’s realtor commission on the sale of their existing home for up to $20,000. To qualify the home must be listed with a licensed realtor of their choice.

4. “Get What You Want Plan” – Homebuyers can request up to $25,000 worth of options/upgrades and Flaherty will pick up the tab.

5. “More For Less Plan” – Flaherty will subtract $20,000 off the base price of any new home in any of its eight communities (individual lot sales excluded).

“We wanted our SuttonDale customers to be able to pick the option that gives them the

most benefit and reduces the anxiety they might be feeling about buying a new home”, said Flaherty. “We also believe this program will help existing home sales by creating some interest in the resale market.”
