D.R. Horton Meets Tax Credit Demand With Over 40 New Condominium Homes in Beautiful Summer Key

Jacksonville, FL – September 8, 2009 – Renowned as “America’s Builder,” D.R. Horton prides itself on offering affordable, quality homes in only the finest locations. Outstanding prices and builder incentives coupled with the current federal tax credit makes the demand for exciting new homes quite high. To meet this demand, D.R. Horton is introducing more than 40 new “Quick Move-In” condominiums within its architecturally chic Summer Key community.

Located on Jacksonville’s Southside, Summer Key offers countless lifestyle conveniences perfect for those wanting fantastic carefree living. Central to the area’s thriving professional district, D.R. Horton’s two- and three-bedroom homes within Summer Key are great for first-time buyers, busy professionals, empty-nesters and more.

“Homebuyers are quickly taking advantage of the current federal tax credit of up to $8,000 so that they can close on their new home by the November 30th deadline,” said Lauren Eastman, sales manager for D.R. Horton Jacksonville. “As the deadline quickly approaches, D.R. Horton has anticipated the last-minute rush of buyer activity by making available a considerable quantity of “Quick Move-In” homes within many of our communities. Shopper interest in Summer Key, and all of our communities, is extremely high.”

The government’s federal tax credit allows qualified first-time homebuyers an opportunity to receive up to $8,000 – a credit that does not have to be repaid. Buyers who have not owned a residence in the past three years may be eligible for the tax credit as well, with guidelines stipulating an income of up to $75,000 for single buyers and up to $150,000 for joint and married couples.

“D.R. Horton customers also receive all standard closing costs paid, excluding lender required prepaids, when they use one of our preferred lenders,” said Eastman. “Summer Key is a stunning community that offers three ample floorplans. Its exterior architecture showcases a stylish Key West flair uncommon to other local condominium communities, and definitely well worth seeing. Our model homes are open daily for informative tours.”

Summer Key’s single-story homes range in size from 927 to 1,145 square feet and are housed on three levels. Residences are affordably priced from the mid-$110s. Metal roof accents lend elegant touches to tri-colored residential buildings. The well-manicured landscape provides convenient sidewalks and a picturesque natural setting.

Residents of Summer Key also enjoy plenty of resort-style recreations, such as a beautifully decorated clubhouse accented with stone; plantation shutters and soaring ceilings with tropical fans; a spacious multi-purpose room with a catering kitchen; billiards and media room, comfortable furnishings, business center with Internet access, sparkling pool with sundeck, relaxing hot tub, state-of-the-art fitness center, jogging trails, children’s playground and indoor gymnasium with basketball facilities.
