Welcome to the Parade of Homes!
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2008 Parade of Homes. These
homes are not only beautiful in appearance but also represent the
latest in cutting edge technology, design and construction techniques.
Our community continues to thrive, ranking as one of the top 10 places
to live in the country. We take pride in helping to build our community
in many ways. Our association’s members are active participants in
all facets of the area including schools, civic organizations, boards
and commissions. Our theme this year is Building Relationships/Building
Communities.
I want to congratulate our builders for their exceptional quality
of design and workmanship. During your tour, you’ll notice every builder’s
attention to detail and craftsmanship. The same integrity of construction
is demonstrated by each of them in every home throughout the year.
Our Association recognizes the importance of serving the community
as a resource on housing. You will find this event useful in searching
for a new home, building a dream house or simply identifying ideas
and suggestions for your own projects.

Inspiration
is everywhere at the 2008 Parade of Homes, brought to you by the Greater
Iowa City Area Home Builders Association.
The homes you will see are some of the best in the area, showcasing
the latest in home designs, appliances, kitchen and bathroom luxuries,
plus outdoor living spaces and master bedroom and bathroom suites.
Behind the walls of some of these homes are the latest in green building
techniques and technology and the newest home electronic systems.
Whether you are considering purchasing one of these homes or you are
looking for ideas to incorporate into your current home, this Parade
of Homes offers it all. Our homes are backed by strong warranties
and some of the finest builders in the area. Step into our homes and
get ready to be inspired!
