Stonecrest Homes Partners with Marketplace Homes

About Sales, Inc. is pleased to announce that Stonecrest Homes is partnering with Marketplace Homes, a program that offers a guaranteed lease of a buyer’s current home for up to six years. Through this partnership, Marketplace Homes helps buyers purchase new construction homes from Stonecrest.

Jason and Megan Daniel recently purchased in Harmony on the Lakes Palisades with the help of Marketplace Homes. Their new home in Canton would have been only a dream without using the lease program. “We couldn’t afford to sell in the present economy, but needed a larger home because of our growing family,” stated Jason. “Working with Marketplace Homes was a surprisingly easy and fun process. They seem to want to make their clients happy and do so with a great sense of humor and willingness to help.”

Included in Marketplace Homes’ lease program are guaranteed rent payments, management of all utility bills and home maintenance. The client receives a payment every month even if the tenant does not pay and even if there is not a tenant. Plus, if Marketplace Homes sells the home during the lease period, the client gets 100 percent of the asking price with no listing fee paid out to Marketplace Homes.

The Daniels hope to move into their new, five bedroom and four bath home in February. Their home features the Churchill floor plan with a large fireside two-story family room and a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, a huge custom island with granite top and beautiful stainless steel appliances. “We love the openness of the living room and kitchen,” said Jason. “The home’s design is well thought out with large rooms, crown molding, extra garage space and an isolated laundry room.”

The home also boasts a spacious guest bedroom with full bath on the main level, perfect for the family’s visiting relatives. The owner’s suite features a sitting room, luxurious bath and large his and hers closets. Upstairs also includes three secondary bedrooms. The Daniels will have ample amount of space for their new baby.
