We Work With Local Officials We find common sense ways to work with local o cials to fund growth without impacting the availability of affordable housing. While impact fees are the easy go-to to produce revenue, it is not always the most sensible.

For example, the MCBIA helped promote the 1 cent sales tax for infrastructure, in lieu of raising impact fees. An average 2,000 sq. ft. home built in Marion County has approximately $1,400 in impact fees. That figu e jumps significantly in neighbo ing counties; in some cases, over $10,000 more. This translates into quite a price increase for a family looking for an “affordable” home.

Additionally, your MCBIA membership includes membership to the state and national associations: Florida Home Builders Association and National Association of Home Builders. These associations give you a voice in Tallahassee and Washington, D.C., with annual legislative days you can choose to participate in.

We Connect You With Quality Professionals. It may look like a great deal to get that guy that someone’s cousin saw on Facebook who does work for cheap. However, it’s not such a great deal when you are left with careless work, or you are outright cheated by an unlicensed contractor.

Let the MCBIA do the background check for you. If you see a builder or business listed in our directory, you know they have already been vetted for current professional licenses. There are no outstanding complaints and all local and state requirements have been met. Don’t be a victim of an unscrupulous or just plain bad contractor.

Check out our membership directory included here!

We Give Back! The MCBIA holds events throughout the year that give a portion of the proceeds to designated charities. Annually, we hold a golf tournament, casino night and King of the Wing. They are all open to the public. Over the years we have been giving back to worthwhile organizations such as ARC, Friends of Marion County Veterans, the Arnette House, and Altrusa.

Take a moment to look through our magazine and see what we do! Our members would like to share with you some of their favorite projects, what designs are trending now, and advice on making your home the home of your dreams!

Steps to a Successful Home Purchase WHY GET PREQUALIFIED? Many home buyers assume when the time comes to buy a home, it will be simple, easy and “painless.” Unfortunately, this is the exception and not the case in most of “today’s” home loan transactions. Working with a trusted Mortgage Specialist will allow you to know up front, before findin your “dream” home, what, if any, items need to be addressed and worked on.

VerifiedMember.indd 1

10/26/21 3:57 PM

A LETTER OF PREQUALIFICATION IS THE FIRST STEP… this shows the Seller that you are serious and have taken the initial steps of having your credit, income, assets and liabilities reviewed-this is not a loan guarantee but will give you a general purchasing framework of the loan program and amount of a mortgage that you can afford.

Buyers Ten Commandments for Getting a Mortgage Loan I. THOU SHALT NOT buy anything on credit.

You would think that goes without saying, just remember when the appliance guy tells you “but if you finance these today I can give you hundreds of dollars off,” it results in an increased debt or even a credit pull, don’t do it until after closing.

II. THOU SHALT NOT change jobs. That job

offer with another similar company may mean a raise, but depending on the type of pay or even the length of a probationary period it may cost you your dream home.

III. THOU SHALT NOT make large deposits to

your accounts. At this point you have already realized that deposits to your accounts must be “sourced”. Even if you are using gift funds, don’t do anything without your lender’s direction.

IV. THOU SHALT pay your bills when (or before)

they’re due. Now is NOT the time to dispute a purchase or pay an account late.

V. THOU SHALT NOT close ANY credit or bank

accounts. We addressed not opening any accounts but closing accounts can be just as detrimental.

VI. THOU SHALT NOT lend money or co-sign

for anyone. Even if the money your friend needs to make his car payment isn’t part of the cash you need to close, your lender may be counting on those funds as “reserves”.

VII. THOU SHALT NOT open a new business

or start self-employment. Self-employment frequently results in business losses that are subtracted from your other earnings.

VIII. THOU SHALT keep as much fl xibility as

possible regarding the closing date. One thing is certain in mortgage lending the less fl xibility you have in your closing date/time, the more pain you will feel in a real estate transaction.

When you absolutely, positively have to close at 4pm on a specific date you are setting your-

self up for disappointment. Stay fl xible with movers, appliance deliveries, utilities hookups, etc. until such time as your loan is “clear to close”.

IX. THOU SHALT be honest and transparent

with your loan office . The vast majority of surprises that arise are the result of borrowers “educating” themselves via the internet (or sometimes other loan officers) and thinking they can hide or skew information. It takes many years and many deals to learn this business, don’t think you can read up on a few websites and be an expert.

X. THOU SHALT ask your loan officer ANY ques-

tions you have regarding financing The internet is a great place, but it’s rife with information while starving for knowledge. Also your friends and family will be eager to share their experiences and advice, but every loan program is different and every deal is different.

Award-winning custom home builder, Secure Built, is excited to unveil our newest model, Oaklen lI. This beautiful custom home was designed and built for the Shanawany family in Ocala.

Your breath will be taken away as you pass through the front entry doors, where you are greeted by the openness and sleek design of this home which is further enhanced by the 10’ ceilings and 12’ coffered trays.

Stunning surfaces. The beautiful 24” x 48” rectified porcelain tile visually unites the entire living space. The use of the gorgeous Cambria Quartz on the fireplace is duplicated on the kitchen’s waterfall effect island.

Unforgettable kitchen. The kitchen is encompassed by acrylic gloss slab style cabinetry that extends to the ceiling and is accentuated with a metal effect backsplash. The Swarovski® crystal pendant lighting over the island is the final elegant touch to this dream kitchen.

Tillman & Associates Engineering Premier 2021 Project The World Equestrian Center located in Ocala, Florida is the largest equestrian and multipurpose complex in the United States.

I

n total, the equestrian park property is comprised of 6,000 acres; with nearly 400 acres of beautiful landscaping and a sophisticated technology infrastructure that transcends the traditional horse show world. Featuring a luxury 248 room hotel, grand stadium, 5 magnificent indoor a enas, two RV parks, a veterinary clinic, chapel, and dining and retail amenities, the World

Equestrian Center is the premier venue for equestrians and spectators alike. This premiere venue encompasses the vision of a dynamic family: Larry Roberts, his wife, Mary, and their son, Roby. Their passion for horses is reflected in the xtensive thought and design that has gone into the World Equestrian Center. The Roberts have gained a reputation for quality with the well-established Golden Ocala Golf and Equestrian Club and its residential component. According to Ocala Mayor Kent Guinn, Golden Ocala “has a $2.7 billion impact on the community every year.” This number is expected to rise significantly as World

Equestrian Center continues to grow.

However, not all events hosted here are exclusively equestrian oriented; with two fl x buildings on site, the World Equestrian Center can play host to nonequestrian events such as dog shows, expos, car shows, and sporting events. Additionally, it serves as a unique wedding venue; where both indoor and outdoor gatherings can be. Indoor ceremonies can be held in the intimate on-site chapel, which has a maximum capacity of 100 guests.

The chapel’s charming exterior and its landscaped surroundings are ideal for wedding photos.

If you’re curious, head for The World Equestrian Center even if you’ve never been near a horse. Take in an attraction that is unique for this quiet, semi-rural area, only a 20-minute drive from the square in the center of downtown Ocala.

God has truly blessed the Belac Homes family with growth over the years.

Why the name “BELAC?” Some people have asked if “BELAC” is a combination of the Smallwood family’s first names Brian, ELizabeth, Abigail and Caleb. Others have pointed out that Belac is the couple’s first child’s name “Caleb” spelled backwards. Regardless of the meaning you choose, family is truly important to us at Belac Homes whether we get to work with you, build for you, or support you in our community.

Most Popular Plan Wilmek Construction is proud to give you a glimpse into the world of making one families remodel dream a reality.

THIS MID

90’s home

in the Country Club of Ocala was transformed by a team with over 3 decades of construction experience. The homeowner was looking for an update both inside and out. A fresh, lighter color and the addition of an accent brick veneer increased the curb appeal of this home dramatically. The interior update was a multi-faceted job including the addition of an electric fireplace with gorgeous floor to ceiling brick mantle, faux wooden beams, and crown molding. The kitchen makeover began with

a total gut and demolition of the kitchen, dining, sitting, and living areas. What was once several small, compartmentalized rooms is now one large bright and inviting open concept sanctuary for all. The kitchen makeover consisted of new stainless-steel appliances, contemporary backsplash, and a built-in pot filler over the flat top stove.

Contrasting quartz counter tops, the addition of an ample hidden pantry, and an over-sized island turned this kitchen into the center of family living for this Ocala family.

If you would like to see more of this project and others, please visit our portfolio at Wilmekconstruction.com.

With an on-site designer to help coordinate your finishes, you will have the benefit of a professional to guide you to a home that will look beautiful for years to come. We strive to provide our customers with the best in custom craftsmanship.

In these days of assembly line production and cookie cutter products, we here at Wilmek will make your job the one-of-a-kind quality vison you dreamed of.

Whether it be new construction or renovations, let us give you a quality job in the making!
