Dallas New HomesIf you’re in the market for a new home in Dallas, there’s good news – Dallas was recently ranked in the top healthiest markets in the country for a new home, according to BUILDER Magazine. The Dallas metroplex added 50,800 jobs, almost a two percent increase in employment, and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics named Dallas a “rebounding economy.”

Dallas continues to thrive because of the strong employment and affordable housing, drawing people and businesses here. At the year’s end the median home price was $149,000, just short of where it was during the peak of the market. More plans to develop the city’s downtown to cater to young professionals are in the works.

BUILDER Magazine expects a 52% increase in building, as builders and developers such as Grand Homes has added land to keep up with the demand for new homes in Dallas. Grand Homes is now opening new home communities in Ft. Worth, Prosper, Frisco, The Colony and Savannah.

Grand Homes, Homes for HOPE

Dallas’ second Home for Hope is now sold! Grand Homes and our many trade and business partners were pleased to join together with Homes for Hope to dedicate the home in McKinney. We are especially pleased that all the funds raised will provide loans for impoverished entrepreneurs in developing nations.

Collaborating with more than 40 vendors and trade partners, Grand Homes is able to donate the proceeds of the home, priced in the $250,000s to HOPE International, microfinance network dedicated to alleviating world poverty. The final sum will provide microloans in 12 of the world’s most desperate countries. Starting at only $50, these loans enable entrepreneurs to start or expand their small businesses, creating a steady income that will lift their families out of poverty and into lives of hope and prosperity.

Grand Homes would like to thank the following organizations and individuals who have worked to make this project a huge success!
