Be inspired by the Parade of Homes! Below are some tips and ideas that will make your visit even more enjoyable. Have Fun!
NEIGHBORHOOD RESPECT
You are in someone else’s neighborhood when you tour. Be sure to honor the no-parking areas and do not block driveways or drive on lawns. Try to leave at least two car widths for passing traffic.
TAKING PICTURES & MEASUREMENTS
Some builders are flattered if you take photos or measurements. Others would prefer that you refrain from taking photos. Please ask permission before you begin. Be sensitive to other people visiting the home at the same time by not obstructing their view.
SHOE COVER POLICY
Please note, most homes require protective shoe covers over socks, not bare feet; provided by homes on the tour. You are welcome to take a new pair from your first home visit, and keep for use at each home on the tour
CHILDREN UNDER 12 FREE ADMISSION
We are hoping free admission for kids provides a good family atmosphere for you to tour. For their safety, and for the pleasure of others touring, please keep children near you at all times.
COMMENTS ABOUT THE HOME Homeowners may be on site, so please refrain from making comments. Keep your observations positive while in the homes.
