Spring has traditionally been a time of renewal, and this year’s Parade of Homes was in full bloom.
Featuring 69 new-construction homes in Northeast Florida, association President Dennis Ginder was excited about the success of the 2013 Parade.
“We’ve long looked to the Parade as a barometer of the industry’s strength,” Ginder said. “Seeing more homes on display this year and more people visiting the finest homes in the area was very encouraging. This actually gives substance to the reports we keep hearing about how business is picking up.”
Shining the spotlight on new residences, the Parade of Homes has been billed as the area’s largest open house. It offers prospective buyers a leisurely, two-weekend tour of the finest new homes in Northeast Florida. The 2013 Parade was from April 27 through May 5. New homes in the Parade ranged from the low-$100s to the $700s.
A review of the Parade is still available online at http://parade365.jacksonville.com/newhomes/.
