Bogdan Builders' CityScape on Belmont Sells Out According to McWilliams|Ballard


WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwire - February 15, 2010) - CityScape on Belmont, a 28-unit condominium community located between Columbia Heights and the U Street corridor, has sold and settled all of its units according to McWilliams|Ballard. CityScape on Belmont combines a classic row-home styled exterior with modern interior designs featuring sweeping city views, unique split-level floorplans, ceiling heights of 10-15 feet, GE Café™ series stainless steel appliances, European-style cherry cabinets, granite countertops and hardwood flooring throughout.

Developed and built by Bogdan Builders, CityScape on Belmont is conveniently located just three blocks from the U Street/Cardoza metro station and moments from the newly opened DC USA, featuring such national retailers as Target, Best Buy and Bed Bath & Beyond. Bogdan Builders and McWilliams|Ballard launched the sales of the project in late 2008, at a time when few new construction projects were beginning sales.

Despite beginning sales in the midst of a national economic crisis, McWilliams|Ballard and Bogdan Builders were able to develop a strong marketing strategy based on a well-developed quality product with sensible pricing. This successful strategy resulted in the rapid sell-out of CityScape on Belmont, ranking it as one of the top 20 selling condominium communities in the Washington Region, according to McWilliams|Ballard's Midyear 2009 Washington Metro Area Condominium Market Overview.

"Having worked with Bogdan Builders previously on Logan Station, a 63-unit condominium located in Logan Circle, we were confident that we'd be successful at Cityscape on Belmont," says Ross McWilliams, Principal at McWilliams|Ballard. "McWilliams|Ballard's progressive approach to new home sales and marketing combined with Bogdan Builder's reputation for delivering a quality product enabled us to overcome a difficult economic environment and quickly sell out the community."
