The Timber Glen Tax Advantage: 5-Year, 100% Abatement

Every home at Timber Glen qualifies for the City of Wilmington's 5-year, 100% residential CRA tax abatement. Here is what that means in practical terms:

• 5 years of property tax abatement on the home's improvement value
• 100% of the improvement value is abated — you pay property taxes only on the land value for the full 5-year period
• Significant monthly tax savings — on a typical Timber Glen home, total savings can reach $26,000 to $32,000 over the full 5-year abatement period, depending on home value
• Improves affordability immediately — your effective monthly housing cost is meaningfully lower than the sticker price suggests
• Boosts effective buying power — for the same monthly payment, you can afford more home at Timber Glen than at a non-abated community

The Wilmington Residential Tax Abatement Program is administered by the City of Wilmington Service Department, with applications filed using the city's residential abatement application. Read our full CRA Tax Abatement guide to understand exactly how the abatement works. Final eligibility and abatement terms should always be confirmed directly with the City of Wilmington.

Who Timber Glen Is Built For

Timber Glen is Cristo Homes' most flexible community — by design. With 12 floor plans across one- and two-story configurations and both slab and basement foundation options, Timber Glen fits a wider range of buyers than almost any other new community in the region:

• First-time buyers looking at the most affordable Cristo floor plans (the Marion starts at $282,000) with the added benefit of 5 years of tax savings
• Families who need a larger 4–6 bedroom home and want options like the Caraway with up to 3-car garage
• Downsizers and empty nesters who want a ranch (Marion, Mayfair, Mayfair II, Moonhaven, Starling — all one-story plans) without giving up a new construction experience
• Commuters traveling to Cincinnati, Columbus, or Dayton — Wilmington's central location on US-68 is hard to beat
• Buyers who want a basement — Timber Glen is one of the only Cristo communities offering basement foundation options for buyers who want the storage, flex space, or finished lower level potential
• Self-guided tour buyers — with 7 AM to 9 PM tour access, Timber Glen works for anyone whose schedule doesn't fit traditional sales office hours

Slab or Basement — Your Choice

One of the things that makes Timber Glen distinctive among Cristo communities is the flexibility of foundation options. Buyers can choose between:

• Slab foundation — efficient, lower cost, no-step entry, ideal for ranch plans and single-level living
• Basement foundation — added storage, flex space, future finished lower-level potential, and meaningful resale value

Most new communities lock buyers into one foundation type. At Timber Glen, you choose what fits your lifestyle and budget.
