Cresswind at Lake Lanier a Shining Success
Posted by: | Comments
April 17, homebuyers interested in an active adult community came out to Cresswind at Lake Lanier’s grand opening. They toured furnished models, ate hotdogs and enjoyed the music on a beautiful sunny day. The neighborhood must have made an impression.
Merely a couple months later, the community has sold ten homes, and the popularity is expected to continue. The Kolter Group purchased this active adult community on Lake Lanier out of bankruptcy earlier in the year.
Kolter Vice President Bob Rademacher is pleased with the sales. “We have helped bring the community back to life and I think that is one of many reasons that we have seen such a great interest in Cresswind. In seven short weeks, we have sold 20 percent of our inventory,” he said.
Residents of Cresswind at Lake Lanier have access to private and community boat slips – a wonderful benefit since Lake Lanier issues limited numbers of permits. A 25,000 square foot clubhouse is planned for the community.
Cresswind at Lake Lanier features two and three bedroom ranch style floorplans, some of which include basements. Only eight fully-furnished models homes remain for purchase and are expected to sell quickly.
