Eco Building Products Receives Confirmation to Proceed With Desert Crest Development in West Lancaster, California
Stalled Contract for Forty Green Semi-Custom Homes Ready to Proceed
VISTA, Calif., Dec. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Building Products, Inc. (OTCBB: ECOB) announced today the Company has been notified that the Desert Crest Development in West Lancaster, California is now ready to proceed with construction of four models in first quarter 2012. This project awarded to the Company in February 2010, was delayed due to the tight financial markets and has now secured funding to proceed. ACS Development Corporation plans to build 4 model homes with production units to follow shortly after. Desert Crest is a unique project consisting of two phases, representing over $1,200,000.00 in additional contract orders to the Company for 2012. The first phase is twenty-two homes ranging from 2,100 to 2,700 square feet with a targeted sales price from the low 300,000 with expectations to sell out the first phase within six to eight months, cited Century 21, the sales and marketing agent for the project.
Desert Crest development is one of the few remaining new home developments available in Lancaster due to the water district not issuing any new water permits for new home builder tracts. All homes are being designed and certified as a GREEN development with integration of solar panels and other technically advanced building materials like Eco Red Shield™ protected lumber, EWP and Trusses.
"The Antelope Valley region has rebounded very quickly following the downturn in housing over 18 months ago. When we first selected this area to build, Lancaster was ranked the fastest growing city in the U.S. New homebuyers are now jumping back into this market because the homes are conveniently located for the many who work in Los Angeles, coupled with the fact that homes in this area are very reasonably priced," stated Rick Wackeen, President of ACS Development Corporation.
"We have worked very hard to assist ACS Development with designing Green homes knowing that the market would eventually turn. This week's movement of the Desert Crest project supports the recent headlines in the news of November housing starts surging in the USA. The Company is extremely pleased to be in a position to capitalize on this trend," stated Steve Conboy, President and CEO of Eco Building Products.
