<p>As a former North Bend native returning to the community that Kelly loved after 30 years away, she was careful to research &#8220;all of the available opportunities before making a purchasing decision.&#8221; As a realtor in the state of WA for the same amount of time, she knew she needed to be thorough.</p>
<p>&#8220;New construction became a top priority, layered with the peace of mind provided by a builder warranty.&#8221; Kelly &#8220;had previous working relationships over the years with a few people affiliated with New Home Co. in WA, so I knew I was in good hands.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Every step of the way I was wowed by the Rivercrest team!&#8221; The onsite sales manager &#8220;always had a warm smile, friendly demeanor and responded promptly with any questions or concerns.&#8221; When she met with the Construction superintendent in the community, &#8220;he always offered an update on the progress of my home. Everyone was welcoming and attentive at every visit.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The New Home Co. offers innovative home plans and on-trend design elements that are a cut above what other builders offer.&#8221; Their priority is &#8220;doing all they can to make your home buying experience a 10 out of 10. The Buyer is always priority number 1.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Outside, the location and breathtaking views of Mt. Si! Inside, the well-designed layout of my home with ample storage and impressive finishes.&#8221; It is &#8220;a wonderful new adventure in this chapter of my life, getting to enjoy my very first brand new home.&#8221;</p>

<p>When asked if she recommends New Home Co., Kelly said: &#8220;Definitely YES!&#8221; as New Home Co. &#8220;met and exceeded my high expectations for shepherding me through the entire home buying experience. Kudos to everyone from the corporate office to the site team for a job well done!&#8221;</p>
