A Glendale, Ariz., home builder is offering wounded warriors discounts of $30,000 to $50,000 on new homes in one of its developments.

Biltmore Homes is the first home builder to make a commitment to offer discounts and other incentives as part of the non-profit Operation Homefront’s Wounded Warrior Housing program. The organization has called on home builders and lenders to help put wounded warriors into permanent housing.

“Biltmore Homes has set a terrific standard for the housing industry that will really benefit wounded warriors and their families,” said Meredith Leyva, co-founder of Operation Homefront, in a statement announcing the discounts. “These are beautiful new homes at a steep discount in a prime location near VA facilities, great schools and a big job market. With as many as 130,000 qualified families, we think we can help sell entire cul-de-sacs rather quickly.”

The WestGlen Villas development is a gated community with a variety of amenities, including a community pool, and is minutes away from Westgate, Cardinals Stadium and Coyotes Arena.

According to the builder’s Web site, the homes range from about $210,000 up. The development offers 152 homes available in four different floor plans. One- and two-story designs range from about 1,350 square feet to over 2,300 square feet, from two to five bedrooms.

1. What, he can't sell them and the only people who can get financing are those with access to

VA loans??? And those prices are well within VA limits, too...

I wouldn't be surprised if he writes off the "discount" as some kind of charitable contribution...

Yes, I am cynical....
