Press Release Summary: Colorado Homebuilder Creates Unique Brand Experience for
Potential Homebuyers

Press Release Body: DENVER – September 16, 2008 – Award-winning homebuilder, John
Laing Homes, today announced that the company is experiencing record-breaking sales
of its Heirloom Collection of homes. Reminiscent of Denver’s most historic
architecture, the Heirloom Collection is located in the Stapleton urban
redevelopment community in Denver.

By building relationships with potential homebuyers and exceeding their expectations
in terms of home quality and customer care, John Laing Homes has built a reputation
as a customer-centric homebuilder. The sales process nurtures lasting relationships
with homebuyers, making customers the number one priority before, during, and after
they move into a new home.

The sales process for the Heirloom Collection was no different. Potential buyers
were invited to a series of gatherings at neighborhood restaurants to create a sense
of community. Customers were able to get to know the neighborhood, John Laing Homes,
and each other. As a result of this positive brand engagement, an astounding twelve
homes sold in a two hour period. A total of 22 Heirloom Collection homes have sold
since April 4th.

“In a down housing market, sales of the Heirloom Collection have been remarkable due
to our commitment to architecture as well as the continued customer service
experience we provide for our customers,” said John Bissett, Colorado Division
Senior Vice President. “The community gatherings helped us to convert prospects into
customers and in turn, convert those customers into brand evangelists.”

“As current John Laing homeowners, we’ve been so thrilled with the customer-focused
approach that we felt comfortable buying a new home from a floor plan, sight
unseen,” said Heirloom Collection homebuyer Greg Montoya. “Attending the community
meet-and-greets and going through the process with our new neighbors has really made
this experience unforgettable.”

The Heirloom Collection was designed by the Woodley Architectural Group, Inc. with
an emphasis on quality construction. These home designs are based on recommendations
from current John Laing homeowners. Six floor plans are available and the homes
range from 2,205 – 2,625 square feet. All homes are priced from the mid $400s. The
North Filing is on course to sell out by May 2009.
