"Buying a new home is a big step, and we know there are bound to be questions. This seminar gives you a place to get those questions answered -- and of course, have a lot of fun in the process," said new home manager Susan Lee.

"We'll cover every step of buying a new home, from selecting the right floor plan to choosing your design options and upgrades. Even if you're just starting to think about buying a new home, you'll find plenty of information to help and guide you. It's all about getting informed and preparing yourself for the adventure ahead."
