Landon Homes in Richwoods Place Lot Holds

Aug29

20120828-205308.jpg

You would think after summer and 4 months of selling that a community like Richwoods in Frisco might slow down a little . . . Well there is no signs of it if there is!

At Landon Homes in Richwoods Place, they have sold out of their first two phases with only a couple lots left, in record time! And YES, have 19 Lot holds for the next phase! It’s crazy.

How can a community have 19 Lot holds in the $340+ range?

Its Simple.

Richwoods.

This community has received the most attention out of any community that I have sold in the past. Westridge in McKinney was a pretty big deal, but Richwoods takes the cake.

I will be amazed when I analyze the sale and holds when the amenity center breaks ground . . . it will be another snowball!

Richwoods goes with Pyramid Stones to top off stone posts

Aug17

20120816-210814.jpg

Richwoods dropped off many pyramid stone tops to complete the ring roads wall. At first it looked odd the stone larger end posts, but now it completes the look.

20120816-211022.jpg

There will also be smaller stone posts like seen above in Richwoods Place that will allow residents to access the ring road jogging path. This is a very creative way, I must say, the the Richwoods development has a leg up on the other Frisco master planned communities.

Eliminate your PMI from your monthly payment in Frisco

Aug16

20120816-011106.jpg

If you are looking to buy in Richwoods in Frisco or Lawler Park in Frisco, would you like your monthly payment to be smaller? If so, I can help most of you.

If your down payment on a new home in Richwoods or Lawler Park is less than 20 percent of the appraised value or the sale price, you must obtain private mortgage insurance, known as PMI, with your lender.

This allows you to bring to the closing table a smaller down payment because your lender is now protected against any default on the loan by you.

PMI charges vary depending on the size of the down payment and the loan, but they typically amount to about one-half of 1 percent of the loan, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association of America. They are also not tax deductible like interest.

Here is an Example on a $400,000 sales price:

Let’s say you put down 10 percent or $40,000. The lender multiplies the 90 percent loan, or $360,000, by .005. The result is an annual PMI of $1,800 which is divided into monthly payments of $150.

Most home buyers need PMI because 20 percent of the sale price on a home is a lot of money; for instance, that’s $80,000 on the $400,000 home. Home buyers must maintain the PMI premiums until they cross that one-fifth-of-principal threshold, a process that can take years in longer-term mortgages.

But I have a way to reduce that extra $150 a month to $0. Not every one of my clients will qualify, but the majority of them do and already have.

If you would like my help or guidance when you go to the builder to write a contract, call me directly at (469) 733-2723 to use me as your realtor. And if you do, you can either choose my 4% Total Rebate Incentive or choose to wipe out your PMI!

The slab has been poured and things are WAY ahead of schedule for Highland Homes in Lawler Park. Highland actually opened up last Tuesday to sales and Steve Marion hasn’t had a chance to think with his back to back to back meetings.

Things are looking very promising with Highlands 5% incentive off of the entire price of the home with all upgrades included. And there are also some amazing non premium lots still available
