Fostering Healthy Housing Communities
Recently, our home plans have changed to become energy efficient. We are meeting a 3 star Built Green rating, exceeding Washington State's Evergreen Standard and are third party verified to meet Energy Star's tax credit level by exceeding the national performance standard by 50%. We have achieved this level of efficiency by using radiant floor heating, advanced framing techniques, high value insulation and high performance windows combined with air leakage testing and sealing.

Mortgage (principal and interest) are based on your income, not the current market interest rate, and therefore are generally more affordable at of below 80% of the county median income as determined by HUD.
This is an Equal Opportunity Program.
