Market Update

What a crazy world that we’ve all been living with since early 2020. None of us could have predicted being in the situation we are in right now. The real estate market has not taken a break since early 2020 and it has only continued to become an even hotter market. Since the onset of the pandemic, the price of lumber has skyrocketed to over three times the price at the same point last year. We see record highs in lumber prices day after day.

With historically low interest rates creating a red-hot market and the cost of building materials consistently rising, Creative Homes has had to learn to operate in this new demanding, hectic time. Like anything here at Creative Homes, we want to provide an unmatched customer experience for our homebuyers and that never changes though we now have to collaborate more than ever on what changing availably and prices can mean to the homebuying process. As we move forward in this uncertain market, our team will continue to put our homebuyers first. We’ll be working with you all to provide honest, transparent updates and get you into the house that truly feels like a home. We look forward to sharing more updates as the market continues to evolve and support you in each aspect of your home building journey.

We recently moved into our new home built by Creative Homes and we absolutely love it! The attention to detail and quality throughout is first class! We've received so many compliments from people who have seen it. From start to finish we received top notch customer service that went above and beyond any expectations. We absolutely recommend Creative Homes to anyone considering a build. You'll be glad you did!

Creative Homes put together our dream home! We were so nervous about the process and making the wrong decisions, but they were there to make everything turn out perfect. They went above and beyond to make our needs met!

Wow! It's hard to know where to even start and I know I won't be able to list everything, but I have to try and tell you how we awesome we feel about the whole building process with Creative Homes and how much we truly love our new home. The process of building with Creative Homes was the most relaxing (sounds weird, but so true!) home building experience we have ever been through. The communication provided from the very start until the very end has been phenomenal. Not once during the whole process did we ever sit and wonder what was going on regarding our home.  I honestly wish I could name everyone behind the scenes at Creative Homes who works so hard to make customers like us have such an awesome home building experience. This company has the standards and employees that all companies should take note of and follow the example of.

We love our new Creative Home. Our designer, Rachel and builder, Jason were so helpful in the entire process. I'm thrilled with the design process. I wondered how it would all look finished, and I was very happy and amazed how beautiful it all looks! Thank you, Creative Homes!

I cannot express how happy we are with the overall experience we have had with Creative Homes. Everyday my husband and I say “we love our house”. Everything from the flooring to the fixtures turned out better than we could have imagined. From the beginning to the end Creative was there for us every step of the way! We are so grateful to Creative Homes for building our dream home!
