'Is auction - marketing here to stay?' (auctions of houses) (Money)

Article Abstract:

Kennedy-Wilson Inc has initiated new residential marketing strategies. In the auction-to-build program, a prospective home buyer bids for a lot and house model of his own choice and, together with other buyers' bids, Kennedy-Wilson will present these to a construction lender bank. The latter then issues a loan based on the bids. The program enables the construction company to decrease its holding costs and shorten its holding period. Post-auction mortgage brokering entails the execution of a residential property purchase agreement between buyer and seller which the company aims to close within 60 days from auction date.

Real homes for today's real families

Article Abstract:

Today's family structures have been altered due to changing economic and social conditions and designers should consider this when planning houses. A single mother's home should enable her to perform housechores while watching the kids and provide her with some working space. The weekend dad's place should be easy to maintain and provide guest rooms and working areas. The extended family abode should provide separate areas for adult and children's activities and address the needs of its aged occupants. A builders' sensitivity to a family's needs will enable him to design a real home for them.
