Welcome to the 2009 Parade of Homes Spring PreviewSM
Once again, the members of the Builders Association of the Twin Cities would like to welcome you to tour the best new homes in the Twin Cities on display during our 60th year hosting the Parade of HomesSM! From our very first tour in the fall of 1949, and continuing today, the Parade of?HomesSM is a showplace for the latest designs, features, and benefits that only new homes can offer. Whether you’re ready to purchase a new home now or just dreaming about the future, please join us during this Spring’s Parade of HomesSM!
Plan your Tour with this Guidebook and On Line
We’ve designed this Guidebook to provide everything you need to find the homes you want to visit, with directories to help narrow your search and complete information about each home. You can plan your tour even more easily by logging onto www.paradeofhomes.org where choosing just the homes that meet your specific criteria is a click away. And, when you sign on to our on-line Tour Planner, once you find the homes you want to tour, you can save them for quick access and make notes about what you liked after you visit.
New, Search for Your LIfestyle
You’ll love our newest search option (here and online) which includes 15 lifestyle choices that will let you explore your own housing needs and desires. From Urban Retreats to Fabulous First Homes, homes ready to Move in Now, and neighborhoods featuring golf courses, pools, and more, our lifestyle categories will help you find your Dream Home more easily than ever. And the best place to start your lifestyle search? Our Dream Lifestyles Mini Tour. We’ve selected ten fabulous Parade HomesSM that perfectly demonstrate ten of our lifestyle categories.
Read All About It
We’ve added some fun editorial for you this spring, too. We’ve introduced you to our 60th Anniversary Parade of HomesSM Prince and Princess and the Dream Home art that earned them their title. Read more about the new Minnesota GreenStar Certified Green Homes and Remodeling program. See the fabulous homes that earned the coveted ReggieSM, Peoples Choice and Trillium AwardsSM designations from last fall’s Parade of HomesSM. And you’ll want to plan your visits to coincide with some of the events listed on our calendar.
Dream Homes
As always our charitable arm, the Builders Outreach Foundation has selected two homes to feature as their Dream Homes. The Foundation asks for a $5.00 tax-deductible admission when you visit their Dream Homes which helps them build homes for deserving low-income families and much more.
The Great Garage Giveaway
The man of the house (and a lot of the ladies) definitely won’t want to miss this Spring’s fabulous sweepstakes either! Our Great Garage Giveaway starts with your chance to win a brand new Ford F150 Truck (no, it’s not a lease) from the Northland Ford Dealers with $1,000 in gas from Holiday StationStores. Register at every Parade HomeSM you visit, and online at www.paradeofhomes.org. But wait, there’s more. You can also win more garage prizes each month (April through July) when you come back to visit us online to check out some of the exciting new features we’ll be launching to help you make smart housing decisions, at www.paradeofhomes.org beginning in April.
All of the professional builders and associate members of the Builders Association of the Twin Cities are excited to welcome you into their homes for the 2009 Parade of Homes Spring PreviewSM. This is a great time to look at these fabulous new homes, and an even better time to buy a durable, safe, and energy-efficient new home.
Welcome!
