Another breezy, windy, gorgeous day out here in Arizona and we are in Surprise, Arizona.
In the community it's called Preserve Adesante and our builder is Richmond American.
And I'm excited to show you this home not only because today's Tuesday Home Deals,
Tuesday Home Opportunities, but this home is kind of unique.
It has a guest suite but I consider it more like an attached casita.
I cannot wait to show it to you and remember I did say Tuesday Home Deals,
Tuesday Home Opportunities.
How about over $47,000 off the price of the house of a similar one just like this behind me.
Surprise, Arizona, Preserve Adesante, Richmond American is the builder
and of course your realtor, me, Mary Kay Marino.
I would be so honored to work for you.
So let's not waste any more of your time.
Let's go show you this beautiful home and remember,
let me know down in the comments what you're thinking and now let's go.
Alrighty now, so we're standing in front of the Townsend.
It is four bedrooms, three bathrooms, it has a flex room in an office,
two-car garage as you can see that's where the office, 2480 square feet.
Plus, not plus, it also has a guest suite.
I'm calling it a private guest suite.
It's more like attached casita and as we walk through it, you will see,
I will explain everything to you and I did say 2480 square feet for the base price of $469.90.
However, the quick move in with all those savings, how about $533.995.
Over $47,000 in savings and again, I'll walk you through all of that.
So let's go ahead and bring you on into this one
and right over here is going to be your two-car garage.
As we're walking up, you know, it does say come on in but here's where it's a little different.
There's the front door but right over here is the door to the guest suite.
That's why I'm calling it myself, attached casita
and you'll get why I'm saying it as we go in.
So let's go ahead and go on in.
Richmond American calls it a guest suite, which it is.
So as you walk in, you can see they have the upper lower cabinets, the sink,
the beverage cooler, nice window with a nice little seating area
and then some more windows out to the side of the house
and then this is going to be your seating area to watch the TV.
So if you have mom or dad, aunt or uncle or somebody that's living with you,
you can theoretically put them here and then right beyond this is going to be the bedroom.
It's a nice size bedroom actually.
Nice window out to the side and as we walk on through here, I'll show you more.
Right here is the bathroom.
Hello! I hope you're having a wonderful day.
There's the vanity. I'll go all the way up for you.
I hope one day I get to meet you and I hope one day I get to work for you.
They're showing it with a tub and shower.
Now if you're new to my channel, you may have not heard me say this.
If you're buying this for mom and dad to live in here
and I would not put mom and dad in a tub and shower combination.
That is just an accident waiting to happen.
That's an ER call.
They need a walk-in shower, not a tub and shower.
That's more like a slip and slide in my opinion.
But here's another look at the vanity.
I'll get out of the way for you and go all the way up
and then right next to that is the walk-in closet for them.
Not too bad. I think I'd like to have at least one.
Hello!
And then coming out and next to this is going to be linen.
Let me show that to you and I'll go all the way up.
That's very nice actually.
Swinging you back around.
Another look at the bathroom and then swing you into the bedroom.
Give you another look right here.
Nice window out to the side.
It's not really the best look at it.
Let me swing you around on this angle.
It's actually a very nice size room.
That's actually better.
And then I'm going to swing out.
Give you another angle of what this looks like.
So you have a seating area.
Then you have the table on the far end with a nice window.
And then you know you have your counter, the microwave,
the sink and then the nice beverage cooler.
So if you have mom or dad or whoever's going to live with you
and they want their own privacy,
they will have their own privacy.
There is no direct entrance into the home.
You have to go out right here.
So that's why I called it an attached casita.
So you go out here.
Now you're back outside.
And then now we're going to go into the main part of the house.
So they can live there and not have to bother you really too much.
Now we're into the front door of the house.
And now we're standing right in front of the door.
I'm going to swing all the way around, circle around.
That's going to be entrance way into the garage.
Right here is going to be your coat closet for all those cold wintry days.
Not.
There's a better look at the entryway in from the front door.
There's your front door.
Isn't that nice?
And to the left of that is your office flex room.
Two nice windows out to the front actually.
Beautiful.
And then if we go on the other side of the room,
this is where all the guest bedrooms are going to be.
Let me back up so you can see the entryway into that.
So going over to the side.
Guest bedroom number one.
And now I know we had the guest suite.
So we theoretically could call this guest bedroom number two.
Window to the side of the house.
And then slider door closets.
Then right next to this is guest bedroom number three.
Window to the side.
And again, slider door closets.
And then next to this is going to be the shared bathroom.
Two sinks, which is fantastic.
And it's the higher height vanity, which is fantastic in my opinion.
And they're showing it again with a tub and shower combination.
So, you know, if it's going to be for the kids, the tub and shower combo, that's okay.
But you don't want to put mom or dad in a tub and shower.
That's just a slip and slide and an accident waiting to happen, in my opinion.
You know, you just don't want to take a chance on anyone getting hurt.
So as we back away from that, right over here is going to be linen.
And they're using it as storage.
I'll go all the way up.
Very nice.
So as we come back to the main part of the hallway, there's front door.
There's a garage door, front door, flex room and office, whatever you want to call it.
Let me tell you, the hallways are nice and wide.
So as we walk on down this hallway, it's going to bring us in the main part of the house,
the kitchen, the dining, the family room.
It's really nice.
Go ahead.
Enjoy.
All righty now, so let's go ahead and bring it back into this kitchen.
Gourmet kitchen, beautiful kitchen, nice long island, comfortably seats four.
They're showing it with a wall oven, actually two ovens and a gas stove top with a microwave
right above it, which is kind of nice to have two ovens, especially during the holiday times.
If you have family and friends over and you need that extra oven,
nice stainless steel refrigerator, and then the pantry in the corner.
I'll bring you into that pantry so you can get a better look at it.
That night bank of cupboards all the way out to that dining area.
And then your pantry is right here.
Open it up.
Go all the way up.
Very nice.
And then back out.
And there are your two ovens.
And then I'll look at the island on this side.
Then I'll bring you into the dining.
A lot of natural light, a lot of glass.
You have a window out to the side, window out to the back, that slider door out to the
back patio, and then another slider door out to the back patio as well.
Nice size area to put your dining.
You can put any size table and shape you want.
You have plenty, plenty of room and lots of natural light coming in, which in my opinion
is fantastic.
I love this kitchen.
Let me give you another angle, another look at the island on this side.
And I'll go stand in the middle so you can see what that looks like and what that feels
like.
So you have plenty of room in there.
If you're buying a quick move-in and they don't have this second glass slider door,
because not all of them will have it, the one right here is your main slider.
If the quick move-in doesn't have the slider, the nice advantage is you are still going
to have windows here, but then you don't have to float your furniture, which means now you
get to expand your room and make it even larger, which in my opinion is kind of nice.
If you're building from the ground up, you may want to save your nickels and dimes and
put that towards something else.
But even with that floating furniture away from the wall and that glass slider, you still
have a very nice size family room, gathering room right there.
And then glancing to the left, that's going to be your dining.
So with all these windows, it's sort of like bringing the indoors and outdoors together.
Give you another look at another angle at the family room area.
Isn't that nice?
And if you like my guide, the do's and don'ts to buying a new build, text the number on
the screen, new, and we will get that out to you.
And if this is not the area you want to live in, if this is not the builder that you want
to be in, I do resale, I do new build.
I've been selling real estate for over 20 years now.
So like I say, I've got your back covered from beginning to end and everything in between.
You're going to make sure that you get what you want and get you the best deal that you
want.
So what do you think of this house so far?
This looks really nice.
And what makes it really nice as well, the Tuesday home deals, the home opportunity on
this one, over $47,000 in savings on that house.
So let's walk on past this and bring you into the primary.
But before we go into the primary, let's go right here.
Your favorite room.
Yay.
No, no, yay.
So the quick move in may or may not have those cabinets, the uppers and lowers.
But like I always tell you, if you want those cabinets and you want that after closing,
all you have to do is let me know.
I have recommendations, referrals, vendors, trades, whatever you need.
I'm going to keep in touch with you even after the closing of the house.
We don't say hasta la pasta, see you later.
No, we're going to stay in touch with you, make sure everything's going okay.
Just in case you need anything, I am here for you all the way through this transaction
and even afterwards.
So you're kind of stuck with me.
So let's go into the primary room.
A very nice size room, two windows to the side, a large window to the back.
And then they're showing it with another door out to the back patio.
That's definitely an upgrade.
Quick move-ins may or may not have it, but in the model, they're showing it with it.
Very, very nice size room.
So as we walk on through into the bathroom, look at that, all that room.
I love it.
And a very nice vanity as well.
Plenty of space in between the two sinks, which I also like.
My favorite for me personally, I like split sinks, but if they're going to be together,
I want a room because I need room.
And directly across is your tub and shower.
So they have it.
Let me show it to you.
A standard size shower and then a nice garden soaker tub.
I'll go all the way up so that you can see it.
A nice window out there.
Some quick move-ins will have it with the super shower.
Some will have it with the way I'm showing today, with the tub and with the shower.
And I'll give you, swing around, show you a direct look at the vanity.
Hello.
I hope you're having a marvelous day and I hope one day I get to meet you.
Don't be bashful.
Give me a call.
Alrighty.
And then right over here is going to be linen.
So I'll show you that right there.
And I'll go all the way up.
Very nice.
What do you think so far?
Here is your water closet.
And then here is your clothes closet.
I will say truthfully, I'm always truthful and honest with you on all the videos
because I want you to be aware of this closet is not very big.
They gave you one side with high low bars, but yeah, right.
It's like someone would have to tell me to get rid of some clothes.
It's like what?
But if you don't have very many clothes, then it'll work perfect for you.
But I love the space in the bathroom.
You're not going to feel cramped and crowded in here at all.
I love this part.
What are you thinking of it so far?
So as we walk back out, give you another look at this big, big room
and exiting out of here down the hallway.
And there's your favorite room.
Let's not go there into the main part of the house again.
It's not nice.
And then we're going to take you outside.
Here we go.
I love all these windows.
I love natural light.
So they're showing it with pavers and the rock,
the shrubbery that gets along well with the Arizona weather out here.
Lot sizes right around 7,800 square feet.
Big enough for a pool.
If you want a pool, you're definitely going to have to build one
because this HOA does not give you a pool.
And I will go over everything that you do get.
However, if you definitely want a pool,
I have vendors and referrals for landscapers and pool people.
Whatever you want and need, I have for you.
It's just one of the many services I do provide all my clients.
Like I said, I keep in touch with you even after the transaction
just to make sure everything's going okay.
And in case you need something, I will get it for you.
It's about building a relationship, not just selling a house.
Let's go ahead and bring you back inside.
What do you think of this one so far?
It is pretty.
I kind of think so.
Leave me a comment below about what you're thinking of this.
Alrighty now, so here's a quick FYI for you and do not go past this.
I put this in every single video because I think it's that important.
It's so important.
I've had people call me after the fact and say, Mary Kay,
I wish I would have listened to you.
I need your help.
I feel like I'm being taken advantage of.
I'm not getting the deal I thought I was going to get.
I'm not getting the deal that they said I would get.
That's why I put this in every video.
You're going to have to go over contracts,
addendums and disclosures, and sometimes those are 100, 200 pages
and you want to make sure it's all working for the benefit of you.
And that's why I put this little clip here in the video.
Anytime, every time you go into Newville, always remember to bring us.
Why?
Because the person inside, as nice and sweet as they are, who do they work for?
They don't work for you.
They work for the builder and the seller.
And when you're buying your largest and biggest asset you ever buy in your lifetime,
don't you want to make sure it turns out exactly the way you want it to?
Of course you do.
That's called exclusive representation.
You want to make sure the person that's working for you is working just for you.
Not for you and the seller or you and the builder.
Just for you.
Watching your back from beginning to end and everything in between.
And that's exactly what we do.
Making sure it turns out exactly the way you want it to for the betterment of you.
So don't be bashful.
Don't be shy.
Call me.
Text me.
Email me.
And very important here.
Do not go inside and register.
Do not go online and register.
Because once you do that, you lose the opportunity to have somebody represent you,
work for you throughout the whole process, protecting you.
We're waiting for you.
Give me a call.
I would be so honored to work for you.
So what do you think of this house?
Absolutely beautiful, beautiful house.
And you have options out here.
And just a reminder, we are in Surprise, Arizona in a community.
It's called Preserve Adesante.
Our builder is Richmond American.
The nice thing about this house, it has a very nice guest suite area.
But for me, I'm calling it like an attached casita where they can come and go as they please.
They don't have to come directly into the house.
And in fact, in order for them to come into the house,
they have to step out of their living area and into the house.
That could be a plus or a minus.
But in order for them to get into the main part of the house here,
they have to step out, then come in.
The recap on the house, four bedrooms, three baths, a flex room or office,
whichever you want, a two car garage, 2480 square feet.
And like I said, it has that guest suite area.
What I'm calling is an attached casita.
And if you forgot the name of this house, it's called the Townsend.
The lots are right around 7,800 square feet.
Now, I want to give you a little information before you leave,
because I don't want you to leave too early.
The Tuesday home deals, the Tuesday home opportunities.
If you like this house, there's one almost similar to it.
Actually, it's the same exact floor plan, but a lot of different upgrades.
It started at the price of $581,953.
The sale price on it is $533,995 for a total savings of $47,958.
Who doesn't want to save over $47,000?
That is just fantastic.
If you don't want to, that's fine.
If you like this area, but just don't want Richmond American, that's okay too.
I can show you any builder, any area that you want, both resale and new build.
Whatever you want, we can definitely help you with.
The HOA out here is $94 a month.
And like I mentioned earlier, there is no pool.
If you want a pool in your backyard, you're definitely going to have to build it.
And lucky you, I have recommendations, referrals for you if that's something you want.
I got the pool people, the landscapers, whatever type of vendor that you want, I have for you.
Because like I mentioned before, this is just not about selling you a house.
It's about the relationship that we build because I'm going to stay in contact with you,
stay in touch with you, even after the sale of the house.
I want to make sure everything's going okay.
I want to make sure that if you need anything and I can help you with it,
I want to be able to help you with it.
So let's get back to the HOA, $94 a month.
You get grassy parks, you get playgrounds,
and you get walking trails throughout the whole community.
That's pretty much it.
And then again, that's why it's only $94 a month.
If you have any questions about this house or any other house or any other community,
all you have to do is let me know.
Wherever you want to live, whatever floor plan you want, whatever builder you want,
we can definitely help you with that.
And just in case you don't know who I am, or maybe you forgot who I am,
my name is Mary Kay Marino and welcome to Hello Arizona Living and Real Estate.
We get calls, texts, emails almost every single day from people just like you
looking to make a move to Arizona and we absolutely love it.
So whether you live in state, out of state, or even out of the country,
that's perfectly fine with us.
And as far as your time frame, days, minutes, weeks, or even years, that's okay too.
Because we're going to make sure your transition and your transaction
is smooth and enjoyable all the way across that finish line to home ownership here in Arizona.
So like I said, don't be bashful, don't be shy.
Call me, text me, email me.
I would be so honored to work for you.
So until I see you around town next time, show you around town next time,
you have a marvelous, awesome, incredible day.
Bye for now.
And I'll see you next time.
