New Homes Northern California - Double Your Tax Credit

Double your California tax credit when you buy your Northern California new home!

If a $10,000 California Tax Credit just isn’t enough, what would you say to a $20,000 Tax Credit? Recently, California lawmakers have come to the aid of home buyers with a new tax credit up to $10,000. It's available to anyone who purchases a brand new home, not just first-time buyers. And, there are no income limitations. Trilogy in Northern California is matching state lawmakers and offering $10,000 in seller incentives if you purchase a home in their Rio Vista active adult community – and that’s on top of the California tax credit, giving you $20,000 in total savings. That’s a lot of money - especially in this economy. And, how can you pass that up knowing that we are experiencing the lowest mortgage rates – EVER!?

New Homes Northern California

Located between the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento is Trilogy’s active adult community of Rio Vista. Living in an active adult community has its advantages. The main advantage being that everything is so close…the nationally recognized championship golf course, fitness center, restaurants, cafes, tennis courts, an indoor pool, and the Center for Higher Learning to help keep your mind sharp.

And, for those who live an active lifestyle, the Sacramento Delta offers sailing, fishing, boating, windsurfing, and water-skiing. Lake Tahoe and Reno are close (for those who enjoy the casino nightlife). And nearby Napa Valley has wine-tasting galore if reds and whites your style.

So, if you are looking for a new home in Northern California and the active adult community lifestyle is what you are seeking then Trilogy’s Rio Vista is definitely worth a visit at www.TriologyLife.com.

Washington Active Adult Community Members Support Children’s Hospital

Washington’s active adult community members of Trilogy at Redmond Ridge are having fun while supporting Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center in its mission to provide quality care to all children regardless of ability to pay.

Fundraising events have included the “Ho Ho Brunch” where they baked delicious dishes and took Santa/grandchild photos;” shouting “Bingo” at Bingo Bash fundraisers; raffling quilts for the annual quilt raffle; organizing book fairs; and donning their cowboy hats at the Western barbecue and square dance.

Their latest venture is the publication of Living Your Dreams: An Activity Guide for Trilogy at Redmond Ridge. The Activity Guide highlights many of the amazing stories and experiences of members of this Washington active adult community.

This fundraising project donates all profits beyond publication costs to uncompensated medical care for children at Seattle’s Children’s Hospital. Approximately 50 cents of every dollar received for book sales goes directly to the hospital. To date, book sales have yielded about $2,100.00 for the kids at Children’s Hospital.

Members of this active adult community in Washington are quite the inspiration!
