Nova at University Park: A New Home Solution in Palm Desert

Harry G. and his wife Theresa recently made the decision to purchase their new home at Nova in University Park, Palm Desert, a choice that came after careful consideration of their desires for a desert home and the practical benefits of new construction. The couple emphasized the cost-saving advantages of buying a brand-new home, where everything is new and there's no need for immediate fixes or updates. Their search led them to Nova, where they found a model that not only met their needs but also offered the additional space they desired in the form of a casita and an accessory dwelling unit (ADU).

The process of securing their home was facilitated by Nova sales representative Chad Ross and WPG preferred lender U.S. Bank, with Jeff Weirsma playing a pivotal role in helping them navigate their financing options. The couple praised the seamless and pleasant experience with U.S. Bank, highlighting the exceptional service they received throughout the process. The inclusion of an ADU in their home purchase was particularly appealing, offering a solution to the housing shortage in Southern California by providing a low-cost rental option, thereby creating a win-win situation for both the homeowners and potential renters.

Living in their new home has exceeded Harry and Theresa's expectations, with the quiet, clean, and simple living space being a significant upgrade. The location in Palm Desert offers a lower cost of living compared to other areas, easy neighborhood walking, and a welcoming community. The Nova homes, priced from the low $700,000s, cater to a wide range of buyers, including empty nesters, first-time buyers, seniors, and multi-generational households, with designs that emphasize indoor/outdoor connectivity and luxurious living spaces.

The availability of casita and ADU designs at Nova provides homeowners with flexible living arrangements and potential income opportunities, making these homes attractive for a variety of needs. The broader University Park community also offers additional amenities and leisure options, including The Grove, a master plan's amenity center with pools, fitness facilities, and outdoor gathering spaces. With its strategic location near the 10 Freeway and access to quality schools, shopping, and healthcare services, University Park presents an appealing option for those looking to make Palm Desert their home.
