A young couple builds a future together

Connie believes the Homebuyers Club is a powerful tool for anyone considering homeownership.

"Knowledge is power. Helping people understand the importance of improving their credit, maintaining good credit scores and not overextending themselves is important," Connie said.

A home built for now and the future

The couple chose Oakwood Homes' Percheron model, part of the Coach House collection, for its spacious layout and backyard that's perfect for their two dogs, Sadie and Lulu. Plus, it's a great layout for their plans to start a family.

"We really wanted a back lot to have a bigger yard for our dogs," Caidynce said. "But the back models (in the neighborhood) typically all have three flights of stairs. We didn’t want to trek up three flights of stairs (with children)."

Despite a permitting delay due to a hailstorm, construction moved quickly once resolved. They picked their floor plan in June 2024, broke ground in September, and moved in by January 2025.

"It's starting to feel like home," Aidan said. "My favorite part of this house is the backyard."

Making it a home

Now that they've settled in, they are planning a housewarming party for close friends and family once they get patio furniture. They've also started connecting with neighbors, particularly one who they envision raising their kids together with.

"We laugh about our kids growing up and hanging out," Caidynce said.

They’ve also continued their relationship with Connie.

"She's so awesome, (and) she's so sweet," Caidynce said. "And she's invited to our wedding."
