FIVE SALES SO FAR
IN 2011! |
Ray Jackson
Vice President of Sales
|
.
With
the Season in full swing, there has never been a better time to be at
Toscana. Whether you decide to take advantage of all the special
events at the Club or are more inclined to kick back and take it easy
and enjoy the great weather, Toscana Country Club is the place to be
in the coming months.
Things
are busy at the Sales Center - there have been over 400 guests
through our Sales Center and Model Home Pavilion so far this year. Of
those, over 300 guests were first time visitors! We have not
seen this volume of real estate interest since 2008…..three years ago.
Thank you to all of our Members who are referring their friends and
family, you are our best sales team and we couldn't do it without you.
The
increase in visitors is also showing in our sales this year
– five sales so far with the
Toscana Sales Team participating in four. The sales include a new home
to be built,
a homesite, an estate home and two resale homes. We are
excited with all the activity and are working on several additional
transactions that should be completed in the next few weeks. |
