Developer Tailors Communities to Growing "Baby Boomer" Market

In anticipation of the rise of activity with this key demographic, KirE Builders designed several of its new home models in a variety of communities around the needs of this generation, including homes at Black Canyon Estates and Vista Sereno.

KirE Builders, Inc., one of San Diego’s fastest-growing homebuilders, has primed itself for the next housing boom – Baby Boomers.  According to a recent study by Jonathan Smoke, Chief Economist at Hanley Wood LLC, people aged 55 and older will account for 25% of the home-buying market in 2014, with a staggering 10,000 people retiring per day over the course of the next 19 years.  In anticipation of the rise of activity with this key demographic, KirE Builders designed several of its new home models in a variety of communities around the needs of this generation, including homes at Black Canyon Estates and Vista Sereno.

“Most of these homebuyers are looking to move to the home they will own during their retirement,” said Josh Santa, President of KirE Builders, Inc., “We designed our communities to include several appealing single-story model options with this generation in mind.”  Although the needs of each homebuyer are taken on a unique, case-by-case basis, the buyer profile has some consistencies.  “When looking for a home at this stage in life, the ideal location may vary, but the amenities, layout style, and floor plan size are consistent,” he added, “Most are looking for a single-story, energy efficient, low-maintenance home.  Our team has done a great job of infusing this mindset, as well as cost-saving green technologies, into our current and upcoming communities.”

KirE also has taken a look at the variety of urban sprawl San Diego offers when thinking of this particular generation.  “We have communities spread throughout the county, from the serenity of rural Ramona living at our Black Canyon Estates community to a more centralized location at Vista Sereno Estates in Lemon Grove,” continued Santa, “We offer something for every lifestyle.”

Several homebuyers at Black Canyon Estates have purchased with the intention of retiring in the next couple of years, if not already retired.  “We have had buyers look at this home as the last home they will own,” concluded Santa, “It means a great deal to know they are trusting us with such a huge decision.  I want to make sure that every homebuyer, regardless of where they are in life, is satisfied with their KirE-built home.”

The time to get into one of the limited edition estate homes at Black Canyon Estates or the exclusive Vista Sereno Estates is now.  Both communities currently feature limited inventory and are poised to move remaining homes quickly. Prospective buyers should seize the opportunity to own at one of these beautiful communities before it disappears.

With 6 exquisitely appointed floor plan options ranging from 3 to 5 bedrooms and 2,200 to 2,710 sq. ft., Black Canyon Estates offers semi-custom estate home living at a more affordable price than the surrounding communities of Poway and Scripps Ranch.  Each home also comes standard with a 3.0kW solar system and integrated in-home pest defense system.  The sales office is located at 23041 Stokes Road in Ramona, homes at Black Canyon Estates start from the $500s.
