DAUNNO DEVELOPMENTS Message from DDC Owner    Dear Rudolph,  I'd like to thank everyone for their positive response to our newsletter "Daunno Developments." I would also like to use this opportunity to comment on some of the questions I've heard repeatedly since the newsletter's launch.   People continue to ask, "With the country in an economic crisis, have you sold any homes? Are you getting any work?" I tell them that while new home sales have slowed, we are staying busy by incorporating many of the lessons learned during my 30 years in this business.   First and foremost, I learned that quality sells. I have held tight to the belief that when you surround yourself with top quality sub-contractors, innovative architects and maintain high construction standards, business will come.   The second thing I learned is that it is crucial to stay a step ahead of your competition and diversify. While other builders were only doing new homes, we established ourselves as both a new home builder and general contractor doing additions and add-a-levels. Keeping with this mindset, I am proud to announce that Daunno Development has now opened a Commercial Contracting Division and we will be introducing its new web site here next month.           Finally, I learned to take the gloom and doom of the news with a grain of salt. With interest rates at all-time lows and home prices more affordable then we've seen in years, this market has become an ideal place for savvy buyers to make a great investment by remodeling their current property or purchasing a new one.   In closing, I'd like to thank you for taking the time to read this and I look forward to working together in the future, Rudolph Daunno Jr President Adding a Level to 441 Spruce Ave, Garwood NJ    Now under construction, the Daunno's are working for newly appointed Garwood Councilman Jonathan Linken and his wife Heather. Using a plan drawn by one of Daunno's Civil Engineers and certified by Roger Winkle, we will be tearing the roof off their current ranch and adding four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a laundry room to the second floor of their home. When complete, the home will also have a new roof and new siding.
