 Picture (left to right- Sal Salafia, REALTOR-Assocaite, Carlo Callea, Builder, Nunzio Salafia, Broker)
Carlo Callea knows the benefit of collaborating with others in his industry and thrives on learning the newest innovations in the field of new construction. For this reason, he is excited and honored to be a part of this year’s Homearama Show. Callea is the newest member of the Rochester Home Builder’s Association to be featured in this year’s Homearama. He also belongs to other groups in the industry, such as; Associated Builders and Contractors, and Builders Exchange. His membership and affiliation with the Associated Builders and Contractors group, afforded him the opportunity to participate in the building of a Habitat for Humanity home. A fixture in both residential and commercial construction for over 22 years, Carlo Callea has been a resource many have come to know and trust. Callea, also a Master Electrician, by trade, owns and operates Callea Electric in conjunction with Concal, LLC. Callea enjoys working with people as they bring their dream home to life! His attention to detail and his ability to work closely with suppliers and municipalities, has made him an effective choice for today’s new construction buyer. Paired with his sales team; The Salafia Sold Team of RE/MAX Plus, Callea delivers a standard product filled with options that consumers regularly think to be upgrades. Callea’s creation of the Pond View Subdivision, gave him the opportunity to boost his new home sales over the last few years. This successful neighborhood has grown exponentially each year, due largely to his high standards. Callea is one of the first builders in our area, to offer features such as; granite counter tops, Andersen windows, 5-inch routed moldings, and gas fireplaces, at no additional cost to the buyer! Because the kitchen is one of the areas that homebuyers look to for a house’s value, Callea has led the industry by offering Cherry, Maple, Oak, or Hickory wood cabinetry in multiple stain finishes and granite counter tops as standards. As a result, even during an economic downturn, Callea’s subdivision has had 12 new home sales in 2009 alone! Callea always has a model home available for viewing, staffed every weekend and shown anytime by appointment. Callea’s recent development; Pond View Estates, has an available 1700 sq ft ranch home for less than $220,000! Like his Watersong Trail home, this home also embodies Callea’s vision for elegant -styled living at an affordable cost. Callea’s emphasis on detail does not begin or end with the home itself, as he carefully selects the land he wants to develop. His Pond View Subdivision was selected for its natural setting such as a wooded border, multiple ponds and low real estate taxes. In selecting a lot at Watersong Trail, Callea took into account the clients’ desire for an in- ground pool and sunny exposure, before advising on any specific lot. For his next project, Callea has chosen to develop in Pittsford. This acreage will be used to develop a community of townhomes. Working with town municipalities, Callea hopes to unveil this project later in 2010!

About Appraisals >Three Caballeros
When you buy a house or refinance your present home, your lender will ask you to pay for an appraisal to help ensure that the sales price and mortgage amount is consistent with the property's market value. The appraiser will look for "three caballeros" or three "comparables" -- homes that are very similar to the one you are buying -- and will make adjustments to reflect the differences between the properties.
Housing patterns tend to be homogenous, meaning that homes worth $300,000 are usually located in $300,000 neighborhoods. It is important for properties to be within the general pricing patterns of their neighborhoods because over-valued homes, even if they are exceptional, are sometimes difficult to sell at full market price.
This is not the only factor considered in determining the worth of a property, but it is an important one. The buyer or seller may view the property as a home or an investment, but lenders view it in a completely different way. To a lender, property means security in the event a borrower fails to repay a mortgage. Therefore, lenders must know real estate values in order to limit their risks.
