Davis Liked It : Roe Building Sold Out!

All of the citizens of Davis and interested parties from afar were intensely curious and interested in the Roe Building during its conception, construction and recent completion. We heard all kinds of comments - mostly favorable, in fact enthusiastic - and gave over 120 private tours of the building (thanks to you who braved the scaffolding in the rain). And now it is sold. Kim Merrell Lamb and I anticipate that it will be an interesting community - people of all ages, some dogs, a shared courtyard, an active homeowners association. Many asked if they could be on the list to rent if investors were buying, but in fact, every unit is going to be owner occuppied. We learned that my demographic (children raised, 1.7 people living in 4 bedroom 2800 sq ft homes and tired of caring for them) has a very real need for a new kind of housing, and little to satisfy it. More about that coming up when I write about Sage Creek…
Kim and I wish to thank all of you who showed interest, offered comments and supported our efforts (yes, that includes a boyfriend and a husband, respectively.) We want to express heartfelt thanks to the enduring efforts of Mark Rutheiser and Chuck Roe, to the puzzle-solving of mortgage broker Greg Fulkerson, to the staging talents of Mary Leachman and to all who played a role in this creative and successful project.
