			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><html><body></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Since the end of October, the North Carolina Museum of Art&nbsp;has been&nbsp;honored to host <a href="http://ncartmuseum.org/exhibitions/rembrandt/" target="_blank"><strong>Rembrandt in America</strong></a>,&nbsp;the largest collection of Rembrandt paintings to ever have been exhibited in America.<br />
			The collection is on display for a few more weeks, until January 22, so you should be scheduling your visit soon.<br />
			I haven&#39;t even visited the new NC Museum of Art since construction was completed, so I am overdue to find a reason to go.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://ncartmuseum.org/exhibitions/rembrandt/" target="_blank"><strong>Rembrandt in America</strong></a> may be the perfect reason to get out and go.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Interestingly, I have been collecting Rembrandts in Cary and Raleigh for some time.&nbsp;&nbsp; Houses, that is.&nbsp; &quot;Rembrandt&quot; models by New Fortis/K Hovnanian Homes.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I live in a Rembrandt.&nbsp; Circa 1993.<br />
			Oddly enough, my Rembrandt is in a subdivision named &quot;Giverny.&quot;&nbsp; Rembrandt in Giverny?&nbsp; Maybe it should have been a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_Monet#Giverny" target="_blank"><strong>Monet</strong></a>?&nbsp; That would have been OK, too.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><img alt="The Rembrandt by New Fortis" src="http://triangleneighborhoodprofiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Rembrandt-Elevation-D.jpg" style="width: 754px; height: 881px;" /></span></span></p>
<p>
			&nbsp;</p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The Elevation &quot;D&quot; Rembrandt was the masterpiece of the model.&nbsp; Full brick front, with half circle windows, a hip roof, and a finished bonus room over the garage all elevated the &quot;D&quot; to the top of the heap.&nbsp; It was the model home in Giverny, and as is common, the model became one of the most popular floor plans to be built.&nbsp; I belive our neighborhood is about 20% Rembrandts, of one elevation or another.<br />
			I live in a home built to Elevation &quot;C.&quot;&nbsp; The &quot;C&quot; has a partial brick front.&nbsp; We added a front porch that makes our &quot;C&quot; unique in the neighborhood.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><img alt="Rembrandt Elevations A, B, and C" src="http://triangleneighborhoodprofiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Rembrandt-Elevation-A-B-C.jpg" style="width: 487px; height: 1001px;" /></span></span></p>
<p>
			&nbsp;</p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Elevation &quot;A&quot; was the &quot;plain Jane,&quot; base model elevation.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Elevation &quot;B&quot; adds a rocking chair front porch.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Elevation &quot;C&quot; includes brick trim on the left of the front of the house, and a step down in the roof.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">But interiors of these three elevations are the same, unless options were chosen to change them.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">The two-story family room in the top rendering offers dramatic central height to the interior, and the rendering shows the palladian windows included in the &quot;D&quot; elevation.&nbsp; Our &quot;C&quot; Elevation home has rectangular transom windows in place of the palladians.<br />
			Most commonly, buyers chose to finish a loft area into a 4th bedroom and/or to add a 5th bedroom/bonus room over the garage.<br />
			Square footages vary from just over 2200 to about 2800 square feet.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">While owners have customized their homes and properties over the last 15 to 18 years, a tour around the area turns up many Rembrandts.&nbsp; You can see the Rembrandt DNA in the photos, and also appreciate the pride homeowners take in&nbsp;personalization of their properties.</span></span></p>

<h2>
			<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Basements in Cary NC</span></h2>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Cary home buyers from other regions often are shocked that many Cary homes do not have basements, and buyers agents need to do some explaining.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">There are several contributing factors to that situation.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>1.&nbsp; Basements are not structurally necessary, so they are luxury priced</strong>.&nbsp; We just don&#39;t need them.&nbsp; In the north and midwest states, it is necessary to excavate footings 4 to 8 feet below grade to get below frost depth.&nbsp; We only need, by code, to bury footings 15 inches below grade, so further excavation is unnecessary.&nbsp; And expensive.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<strong><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">2.&nbsp; Many Triangle areas have high water tables on site.&nbsp; </span></span></strong><span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Water around foundation walls&nbsp; is more likely to intrude into the interior of the basement.&nbsp; </span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>3.&nbsp; Expansive clay soils.&nbsp; </strong>Our soils will expand and contract as they get wet and dry.&nbsp; This movement can stress walls, and allow more opportunity for water intrusion.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>4.&nbsp; Cost of finish.&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong>It is usually more cost effective to convert attic space and finish it than to create and finish a basement.&nbsp; And the home buyers benefit from being high, dry and lit by sunlight.</span></span></p>
<p>
			<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Yes, you can get a basement in Cary NC.&nbsp; Commonly, it will be a &quot;walk out&quot; basement, also known as a &quot;daylight&quot; basement.&nbsp; one or two walls will be above grade, with exit doors and windows.&nbsp; And the lot will have some slope to accommodate this.&nbsp; Dugout, hole in the ground, basements are extremely rare.</span></span></p>

<p>The large number of single digit Days on Market in Cary NC home sales indicates that homes will sell when properly prepared, properly presented, and properly priced!<br />
Real Estate could be better, but it sure isn&#8217;t dead in Cary NC!<br />
A good listing agent makes a huge difference.  Buyers agents are working hard to find value for their buyers.  Listing agents need to work just as hard to show the value in sellers properties!</p>
