We all want a place to call home. But how do you decide whether renting or buying a new home is the right choice for you? There are many factors to consider from financial pros and cons to what choice best fits your lifestyle and goals for the future.  Below are few reasons that outline why buying or building a new home can truly be to your advantage.

1. Security – The feeling of security that comes from owning a home and the knowledge that your home is a safeguard against inflation. You are the only one that will have the keys.

2. Investment – Payments on your mortgage mean that you are acquiring a major possession over time. Instead of rent, every payment you make means you own more and more of your home. The garden you plant, the permanent improvements you make – all enhance your way of living as well as the value of your home.

3. Tax Advantage – Depending on your situation, all or portions of your real estate tax and interest on your mortgage may be deductable from your income tax.

4. Saving Money-Buying is usually cheaper in the long run. In the first few years renting may be cheaper, but over time the interest part of your payment should be lower than comparable rent.

5. Steady Payments-As a renter, you run the risk of your lease cost going up. With a fixed rate loan, you can set your payment and keep it there for the duration of the term.

6. Better Credit Opportunity-It will be much easier to apply for other loans if you already own a home. You can build equity over time and borrow against the equity if you choose to. Credit card companies also typically favor home owners.

7. Freedom-You choose what you want your home to look like, inside & out and the decision making even extends to the yard! And no need to worry about that upstairs neighbor stomping around at 1 a.m.

8. Sense of Pride – This is a “feel good” reason – but its true, at least for most people. You’ll have a greater sense of accomplishment when you own a home.

All these things considered, buying a home isn’t for everyone. Take the time to make an informed decision and you will be glad that you did. Our Housing Expert, Tana Patterson, will be happy to sit down with you and help you determine what kind of housing at Vintage Township will best suit your needs. Vintage currently offers homes for sale starting at just $130,000 and ranging up to $1 million in a neighborhood offering more amenities and more choices than any other neighborhood in Lubbock.

I’ve decided that some places are just special. It’s the places that can make you feel something real. Something that stands out among day to day life and makes you think “this is how life should be.” Fortunately as a parent, I am lucky enough to have those moments more often through the joy I see in my 3 year old daughter as she grows and learns each day. We recently experienced one of those moments at one of the many events that Vintage Township puts on throughout the year for the neighborhood and in many cases for the entire Lubbock community.

Vintage Township Winter Wonderland kicked off this past weekend on Saturday, December 2nd on a very cold and wintery day. We arrived bundled up in our heavy coats with the twinkle of the lights of the Enchanted Forest in our eyes. My daughter just couldn’t seem to get out of the car fast enough. As soon as we stepped in Winter Wonderland’s Enchanted Forest, she took off running, determined to see and do everything all at once.

Over 50 trees shown all around in a rainbow of colored lights and the forty foot decorated Christmas tree with its star glowing up above sparkled for attention with its up-beat holiday music and synchronized lights. This was one of the first stops on my daughter’s highly excited exploration of the festivities. When we finally caught up, we saw that she wasn’t the only little one drawn to the tall and beautiful tree. A handful of children had surrounded the tree and were dancing to the synchronized Christmas music and lights in an adorable and humorous display of dance antics.

Did I mention it was cold? It was so so cold, but the children were completely unfazed by it, running here and there from lighted tree to tree, around the trees, and back again to their parents to tell them again what they were seeing or to point out something new. My daughter made instant friends with the other joyful children and started up a game of chase around the lighted Christmas trees, while my husband and I smiled and tried to keep up.

Then they noticed the huge red sleigh with Christmas presents piled in back. Well, of course, they had to climb in, laugh and insist that we take a picture. Minutes later it was on to the wooden mural of Santa’s elves to play peek-a-boo in and out of the poseable elf faces. Then with another spurt of energy she ran to stop and study the perfectly timed musical flashing group of Christmas trees at the far side of Enchanted Forest. You couldn’t help but smile and there was a feeling of just pure happiness as children, siblings, moms, dads and grandparents enjoyed the night of holiday wonder despite the cold.

Then it was time to go and as we climbed back in the car, my daughter asked when we could come back to the “Christmas tree forest.”

These experiences, those special moments are what Vintage Township is all about. They’ve created a place, almost frozen in a simpler time when family time was something to look forward to and memories were made every day in every season.  If you are looking for something more, something beyond the ordinary, then you should visit Vintage Township in Lubbock, TX and experience it for yourself.

Other events taking place in conjunction with Winter Wonderland include a fall tour of homes with a choice of either daytime tours or evening tours, visits by Santa & Mrs. Claus, horse drawn carriage rides and “An Evening to Remember” featuring wine & hors d’oeuvres by D’Vine Wine, evening Vintage home tours, hot cocoa and select desserts by Starbucks and a first class silent auction and raffle.

The following was sent to us from one of the many families that has chosen a new home and a new way to live life better at Vintage Township.

“The greatest things in life often are those things that are the hardest to measure.  Think about it.

Things we count – our income, square feet in a home, points in a game, number of victories, number of friends, number of ties or purses – these things do not have lasting value.  When you think back on your life, your most cherished memories, what you value most are relationships and experiences.

On Saturday, I was impressed with this truth as I surveyed all that was going on in Vintage Township.  A wedding in a park, another wedding in the town hall, a car show and a neighborhood sock-hop complete with a band, lights, poodle skirts and hula-hoops – all made for a very busy and exciting day.  What was profound was how these events brought together people in the Township of all ages and persuasions.  Each event or activity provided a rich experience where those in attendance enjoyed fellowship with each other.

Nowhere but Vintage do you have couples sharing their wedding vows in a neighborhood park or committing to holy matrimony in a neighborhood town hall.  Nowhere but Vintage do you have neighbors coming together to throw a 50’s style sock-hop for the entire neighborhood to enjoy.

Yet, as I surveyed the smiling faces of those attending these various events, I felt proud of those who have chosen what is lasting over what is temporary – what is valuable over what is not.  The residents of Vintage Township value experiences and relationships.  They want to feel their children are safe; to have relationships with their neighbors; and to have a wholesome and beautiful environment to create lasting memories with their loved ones.

The Township is for anyone who values such things.  It’s not just for the young or the rich.  A broad range of housing choices opens the door for everyone to come and enjoy what matters.  Nay, the counters may respond, “my house is bigger, my lot is larger or my street is wider,” yet when they are old and grey what will matter will be relationships and experiences.  Their children will not remember the numbers but experiences.  Lost will be the opportunity to live life better, a live found nowhere but Vintage.”

What better than to hear the words of what its like to experience a day in the life at Vintage Township, than one of many special people that call this neighborhood home.
