Gig Harbor Undressed

Custom home site in Gig Harbor

All of the best investors know that “down” markets such as we’re currently in are the times to grab opportunities.  Warren Buffet is commonly quoted as saying, “When others are greedy, be fearful.  But when others are fearful, be greedy.”  Fear has slowed our real estate market considerably.  So how do you “get greedy” and take advantage of it? 

I group land into 3 broad categories…vacant land in Gig Harbor is buildable, nothing on it, not developed.  Raw land is just that, the dirt in Gig Harbor that isn’t developed and may never be.  And finally there’s building sites.  Vacant land where the work has been done and it’s ready to build.  This opportunity is for a great building lot!

Here’s one opportunity.  I’ve just listed a rare, gorgeous building lot in Gig Harbor.  Those of you who live in the Harbor know that level home sites are rare.  This one is 1.46 level acres, about 2 miles from downtown Gig Harbor and about 1 mile from Gig Harbor High School and Discovery Elementary School.  This lot is the last street that the Peninsula School District will bus kids from; any closer and you get to walk!  Imagine what you could do with nearly 1 1/2 level acres.  How large would your yard be?  Would you put in a sports court, a patio with a hot tub, the play house your kids have dreamed of? 

The seller of this lot is a custom home builder in Gig Harbor, who is planning on building his own home on the adjoining parcel.  He’d be happy to build your dream home on this lot for sale, or you can bring your own builder.  My seller will gladly build your plans, or you can use his plans.  A private well is already drilled just for your home, and a 4-bedroom septic is approved.  How great would it be to have a new construction home in Gig Harbor built to suit your needs?  You pick the floor plan, you choose the features, a brand new house on acreage close to town!  The seller is interested in sharing a gated entry for the two homes as well!

This lot neighbors two of Gig Harbor’s premier gated communities, Millbrooke and Rosedale Ridge, so you get the close neighborhood feel that is so highly desired in Gig Harbor, but you get the peace and privacy of acreage too.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard, “I could’ve bought that…” or “I wish we’d have bought…”  Take advantage of our market of opportunity and make this custom new home site yours for only $194,950.  Call me or email me for more information.
