This year’s Early Spring Market activity is exciting to see and experience. We have already sold almost a dozen Bentley Homes across all of our communities including Belrose, Saranac, Kinterra, and Worthing. Whether it’s the uncommonly warm weather, market confidence, new designs and promotions, consumer demand, or everything combined, we are pleased to see the home sales market recovering.

The true winner however is the home buyer. Now is the perfect time for them to buy their dream home at an exceptional price while interest rates remain low. They may begin building equity on an investment offering long-term wealth in a relatively short time frame. Buyers who seize this remarkable opportunity will gain even more by selecting a luxury home builder with a reputation for excellence and a history of home appreciation. So seize the day of the “buyer’s market” as changes are just around the corner.

Speaking of changes, I am pleased to share new developments at Bentley Homes and invite you to see how we continue to over-deliver to our uncompromising buyers and local communities.

In 2011 we launched an aggressive company-wide campaign to “Build out of the Recession” and we are grateful to see our efforts are proving fruitful. In just the first few days of the year we are seeing sales activity in several of our communities and we are hard at work on the first floor of our Philadelphia Magazine Design Home.

In response to recent industry inquiries about the recovery of the home building industry, I honestly believe we at Bentley Homes have weathered the storm and are successfully building an even stronger community of homes for our future.

Moving forward with cautious optimism, I am pleased to share with you what Bentley Homes has “under construction” in 2012.

HOMEBUILDER CONFIDENCE EDGES UP

By Harvey Global

A positive report from the U.S. Commerce Department and encouraging news from Europe help turn the tide in the stock market early in the week and the National Association of Home Builders expects the news will lift sentiment for a third consecutive month. Builders saw a marked increase in business in November, beginning construction on 9.3% more homes than in October and 24.3% more on the year. Building permits were also up, and stocks tied to the industry are performing well with good upside potential. Some companies enjoying the climb are homebuilders D.R. Horton, Lennar Corporation, Beazer Homes and Standard Pacific.  For more on this continue reading the following article from TheStreet or at http://www.nuwireinvestor.com/articles/homebuilder-confidence-edges-up-58482.aspx.

In response to this year’s number one question, “Do you think the home building industry will ever recover,” I honestly believe we at Bentley Homes have weathered the storm and are successfully building an even stronger community of homes for our future.

Thank you for your continued support of Bentley Homes. Please join us this season and throughout the New Year at any of our communities to see our activity and success.

Wishing you peace, health and prosperity.

luxury is not dead
The home of high-end Main Line homebuilder Tom Bentley is living proof.
By Tara Behan

    It’s a sunny summer morning in mid-July, and Tom Bentley has invited realtors from Prudential Fox Roach Devon to tour his home and discuss the topic of “Building Out of the Recession.” Bentley isn’t naïve enough to believe that everyone who showed came to hear him speak. Certainly there were a few who simply wanted to see where the Main Line’s best-known highend homebuilder kicks up his heels.

    And who could blame them? Bentley Homes has been at it for 30 years, building some of the most prestigious communities in the region. Made of stone and topped with a slate roof, Bentley’s English Country manor home was custom built 11 years ago in his Harrison Estate development in Newtown Square…
