The Surge Factor: October 2016

Written by Surge Homes | Oct 31, 2016 4:06:50 PM

Greetings!

October was an amazing month for us as our communities start taking shape and we are doing our namesake, Serge Lemieux, proud! Named after co-owner Ben Lemieux’s father, Surge Homes is literally surging forth from the ground with the construction of Upper Richton and Parc at Midtown! Progress abounds this month so read on to learn more about what we’ve been up to this past month.

 Updates

VIP Privileges

Sales of VIP Reservations for Museum BLVD, our latest condo community, are underway and going well. A VIP Certificate allows interested home buyers the chance to join a waiting list and be one of the first to purchase one of our homes at special pricing – before launching sales to the general public. The cost of a VIP Certificate is $1,900, which goes into escrow, and is applied to the final purchase price of the home once under contract. With prices for Museum BLVD condos starting in the $130s, you won’t want to miss out on this opportunity!

Designs for Every Style

To date, each and every new homeowner of Upper Richton and Parc at Midtown has made their design selections from Surge Homes’ collection of 70 professionally coordinated packages, which include flooring, cabinetry, countertops, backsplashes and wall tiles.

Sales Office

Please note the hours at our Sales Office are now Monday through Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. We are closed Thursday and Friday. Would you like to schedule an appointment to learn more about the homes we have available? Please call (832) 509-2222 or make an online appointment here.

Construction Matters

Great weather means great progress! Our construction team is doing a fantastic job and you can really see the quality and craftsmanship of their work as Upper Richton and Parc at Midtown are now well underway.

In just a few days, we will begin drywall on our first six homes at Upper Richton. Additionally, several homes are in the final phase of mechanical rough-ins and we’re beginning rough-ins on three more.

Parc at Midtown townhomes are framed and we will be installing windows, doors and roofing in the coming days. The Hadley Building is in the vertical construction phase as we prepare to pour the elevated foundation. We will pour piers and complete the slab for the McGowen Building soon. November also will see us continue to pave the remainder of the community.
