A Front Porch Community

Salem's new neighborhood is bringing back a classic style in a modern way.

Front Porches: enhances the aesthetic and community connection
Garages in the Back: let's face it, garages are not that attractive

The Front Porch is Back!

By eliminating the garage from the front of the house, Fairview Addition adds a unique pedestrian experience. This enhances the aesthetic quality of the neighborhood, but also brings more people to the front. The result is a tighter knit community with naturally increased security - more eyes on the street. Imagine knowing not only your next door neighbor, but fellow residents on the other side of the neighborhood? With added pocket parks, a future amphitheater, community garden and an active HOA, Fairview Addition is more than home - it's a place where people actually know each other.

Should You Have Your Own Agent First?

If you're thinking of new construction, I recommend you go in with an agent that represents you, and only you. Many buyers go in it alone, and the builder's agent ends up representing the buyer as well as the builder. Undoubtedly, the builder’s agent will always have the builder's best interest in mind (that builder may be the source of a lot of business for that agent).

Your agent can help with negotiating upgrades in the home, track allowances, recommend financing (if you choose not to use the builder's "preferred" lender), and help oversee the building process and inpsection.

Take your own agent with you to the initial meeting with the builder. That way the builder knows you are represented from the beginning.
