Active Lifestyle Communities Doubles Sales at Soleil Laurel Canyon

Oct. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Active Lifestyle Communities (ALC) announces it wrote eight contracts during August and September of 2011 at Soleil Laurel Canyon, its 330-acre, resort-inspired, active adult community in Canton, Ga. These sales numbers have doubled for this period year over year .  Only four contracts were written in 2010 for the same time period. ALC is on track to sell over thirty homes at Soleil this year.

“We're seeing that the active adult buyer is tired of waiting to purchase the home and lifestyle they truly want,” said Evan Cramer, development manager of Active Lifestyle Communities. “Buyers have realized that the current real estate market conditions create the perfect opportunity for them to invest in themselves.”

While Soleil is a retirement community restricted to those 55+ in age, residents live independently in homes that range from 1,500 to almost 3,000 square feet and are priced between $200,000 and the high $400,000s. Yard maintenance, a 24-hour staffed gatehouse, and home security monitoring are included in the association fees. This environment, which also includes a clubhouse with heated indoor saline pool, billiards parlor, gourmet teaching kitchen, fitness center and aerobics studio, library, two card rooms and an arts and crafts studio, is why Cramer says Soleil is truly one of Atlanta’s best retirement communities. A performing arts center, outdoor amphitheatre, outdoor lagoon-style pool, six clay tennis courts, full-time tennis pro, walking trails, a greenhouse and neighboring golf course round out the long list of amenities.

With more than 55 social clubs to choose from including Les Marmitons men’s gourmet cooking club, the Laurel Canyon Garden Club and the Soleil Singers, there is sure to be an activity that meets each resident’s interest. Regularly scheduled activities including Friday night movie viewings, arts and crafts classes, cooking demonstrations and wine socials, ensure that there is never a dull moment at Soleil Laurel Canyon.

Those interested in learning more about Soleil can take advantage of the community’s Sneak-a-Peek Program that invites qualified potential homeowners to experience the Soleil lifestyle with a three day, two night stay at one of the decorated guest homes in the community.
