"I'm a Realtor and I had been working in the area for three years or so. I just fell in love with the town, so we kept our eyes open until we found Orleans' Waterside Crossing. Orleans offered a great deal in a great location for a beautiful home with quality craftsmanship and nice upgrades. We took some family members to the model and they thought it was phenomenal, beautiful. Would we agree that it's a buyer's market? Yeah, we do. We figured it was a win-win situation!" "We needed to expand. My parents sold their home and are snow birds now, so we were looking for a place where we could do a mother-daughter thing. Orleans had the perfect home for what we needed. It's a buyer's market right now, we were really careful, and it seemed like the perfect timing. Would I tell friends and family to buy now? Definitely. In fact, I was talking to my sister's sister-in-law about it the other day. She's renting, and I said 'What, are you crazy? BUY NOW!'" "Everyone has different situations. We had been thinking about growing the family for a while, thinking about what we needed and what Monica and I wanted out of a house. And when we found our new Orleans home it just kind of fit in, the right home at the right time. What do we like most about our new home? Design, design, design! Especially the kitchen. The area is beautiful, and we just love our home site. Would we recommend our family and friend to buy now? Absolutely." Satisfaction is something that Kintesh & Sonal Patel know a little something about. As owners of Classics Dry Cleaners in DeLand, customer satisfaction is their primary concern. "We are completely satisfied with our home," says Sonal. "Orleans [formerly Masterpiece] provided everything we were looking for." "Our expectations were greatly exceeded, in that the building of our house went so smoothly," adds Kintesh. "Many of our friends have had bad experiences with other area builders, but the service we received has been a pleasure." "Our salesperson was wonderful," concludes Sonal. "In fact we developed a deep personal relationship with our salesperson after our sale. She made us feel like we were part of the family." In 1996, Jim & Donna Hoy purchased their first home. Six years later, when they needed a bigger house for their growing family, their choice was simple ... purchase another Orleans Home. They found the same superior quality, "We couldn't be happier," says Donna Hoy. "Buying from Orleans was twice as nice the second time around. Thanks Orleans."
