If you are looking for a carefree luxury living in beautiful Chesterfield, you owe it to yourself to see the two ultra-sophisticated villa displays now for sale at Brunhaven. Greater Missouri Builders' intimate cul-de-sac enclave comprised of 26 maintenance-provided "lifestyle homes" is located along Olive Boulevard, about two miles north of the Highway 40/Clarkson Road interchange and 1.8 miles south of Highway 141.
Right now, both of our villa displays carry substantial $60,000 discounts and are ready for immediate move-in. And we're even picking up the tab for the homeowner association fees for two full years which covers such things as lawn and landscape upkeep, sprinkler system operation, snow removal, and exterior painting.
"It has been our experience that most upper-tier villa buyers want everything outfitted to perfection the day they move-in to avoid having contractors invade their space at a later time to make after-market improvements. And there is nothing closer to perfection than purchasing a display," said Dan Barnard, President. "Not only do our villas for sale come with every imaginable upgrade and extra, but they also include all the window decorations, wall coverings, and paint treatments which were chosen by an interior designer."
Greater Missouri Builders has two new villa developments planned for West St. Louis County totaling $108 million.
The St. Charles-based home builder put a 30-acre parcel of land under contract in Town & Country in recent weeks to build a 98-unit villa development at 1450 Clayton Rd. in Town & Country.
Greater Missouri Builders is buying the property for an undisclosed amount from TNC Investors LLC, which is building a 310,000-square-foot retail development including a Target and Whole Foods Market on 45 adjacent acres at the southwest corner of Clayton and Woods Mill roads. Ted Levis of St. Louis-based Emerald Properties is one of the partners leading the Town and Country Crossing retail development, which is expected to open by the end of the year.
On Feb. 27, Greater Missouri Builders presented its proposal to Town & Country officials for the yet unnamed villa development. The units, priced in the $700s, are part of a planned $70 million gated community.
Greater Missouri Builders has another villa development under construction, located on 10 acres at Clarkson and Clayton roads in Ellisville. The $38 million Villas at Fountain Plaza development has 73 villas priced in the low $500s. Infrastructure work is under way.
Greater Missouri Builders is the eighth largest home builder in St. Louis, based on revenue. The company, which is active in St. Louis and Kansas City, had $34 million in local revenue in 2007 and sold 60 homes in the St. Louis area last year.
"Eventually the bottom is going to whack everybody and it will pick up," said Dan Barnard, president of Greater Missouri Builders. "Then we'll be poised and ready to meet demand."
In the dismal housing market, there are some encouraging signs. According to a new report by MarketGraphics Research Group, an affiliate of St. Louis-based Zanola Co., St. Louis' inventory of new homes for sale is decreasing. There are currently 3,043 unsold inventory homes, compared to an inventory of 3,143 homes in November 2007, according to MarketGraphics.
Zanola Co. President Joe Zanola said that in light of the woes that have hit the housing market nationwide, the decrease in supply is a good sign for the region. "New home inventory has stabilized and turned down. That's a healthy sign."
Zanola said home builders in St. Louis responded quickly to the changing market and didn't significantly overbuild like markets in California or Florida.
MarketGraphics' report shows that building permits for homes and condos decreased significantly in the past three years -- from 14,879 in 2005 to 11,004 in 2006 and 9,983 in 2007. In the nine-county area, only St. Louis County saw an increase in building permits in 2007 -- up to 2,129 building permits issued last year, compared with 1,655 in 2006 and 2,271 in 2005. Building permits in the city of St. Louis dropped to 805 in 2007, compared to 1,048 in 2006 and 2,370 in 2005.
Zanola said home builders are finding opportunity in the current market to meet changes in consumers' preferences. "There are all types of product that were overlooked when the market was so hot," Zanola said. "Smaller, attached units in walkable communities" are in demand, he said.
In the February 22-28, 2008 issue of the St. Louis Business Journal, GMB made #8 on the Largest Home Builders list. Ranking was listed by 2007 local revenue. Scott Campbell, Owner, and Daniel Barnard, President, are proud of the company's progress which bumped us up one spot on the list from the previous year.
