7-Eleven (711) Gas Station Coming at Southwest corner of Rolater and Independence between Richwoods and Lawler Park in Frisco!


  

7-Eleven is coming at the Southwest corner of Independence and Rolater in Frisco!  As a resident of Richwoods I have been very anxious to see what commercial properties will pop up in our quadrant and a 7-Eleven will definitely help future values. 

  

The 7-Eleven info is from the March 22nd, 2016 Planning and Zoning meeting for the City of Frisco. 

Since this is a portion of Lawlers Homestead, I feel pretty confident to say that his plan will only be to only sell the commercial pieces and keep his residence. Clearly, anything can happen but this is his plan for the future. 

  

On another note, the preliminary play has come out for the entrance of Richwoods which is a highly sought after location for any new home owner. Landon Homes and K Hovnanian Homes  (KHOV) are the planned builders for this location. 
Also, I plan to post about Brinkmann’s first piece of land that will start Pre Sales this Summer called Emory Park in Frisco. It’s going to be a really great place. Details coming soon!

ANNOUNCING Lexington in Frisco – A New Gated Community with Shaddock Homes, K Hovnanian Homes (KHOV), Toll Brothers Homes and Landon Signature Series Homes


 Lexington will be developed by Landon Development, the powerhouse developer behind Richwoods in Frisco off Of Independence. Landon acquired the approximate 173 acres earlier this year and have already submitted preliminary plats for Lexington with the city of Frisco. 

   

At the City of Frisco Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting on April 28th, 2015, the preliminary plat was being discussed concerning Phases 1-6. Commission members Bobby Roberts (Vice Chairperson) and Kevin Hodes (Commissioner) both voiced their concern on the majority North and South facing lots. 

They were disappointed wanting more appeal with “curvy” streets. But the developer had a very valid statement on a letter submitted earlier to the city regarding the direction by stating “major factor of North/South lot orientation with today’s energy conscientious consumer,” which is very true!

In that letter the developer states, “The current plan will offer 1.8 acres in open space and parks, including a highly amenitized club house with a wellness center and swimming pool, similar to Richwoods!”

Now that is awesome!

  

Lexington will be Gated with 3 gates, and initially start out with a total of 8 Phases and 634 lots. Landon Development did purchase another approximate 134 acres from Brinkmann in July of 2015 that most likely will be additional phases to Lexington. This new tract of land is located South of the current phases and continues down to Main Street. 

The developer has been in touch with FISD regarding a school site on the property and the location will be at the North East corner of Lexington. 

The surrounding land around Lexington on Coit Road and Eldorado Parkway, has been retained by Brinkmann for the current zoning of light retail. This is vital considering the amount of new homes being built in and around Lexington. Commercial normally comes after residential development. 

Phases and Lots in Lexington

  

Centrally located, Phases 1-6 will consist of 502 lots and broken into three different standard lot sizes. 140 lots will be in the 65 foot wide by 115 foot deep. 208 lots will be 70 foot wide by 100 foot deep. 154 lots will be 74 foot wide by 120 foot deep. There will always be irregular shaped lots in any community which will not fall within those dimensions. 

  
Phases 7 & 8 will be North of the first 6 phases and will consist of 132 lots split into 2 different standard lot sizes. 

  
They will continue with 77 lots that are standard 74 foot wide by 120 foot deep. The other 55 lots will be considered the luxury home lots at a standard 90 foot wide by 130 foot deep. 

Lexington Builders

  

I couldn’t be happier with the builders that Landon Development has selected! All 4 builders are very well known and deliver absolutely stunning new homes. 

My best guess is as follows on which builders will be building in which section of lots. 

K Hovnanian Homes and Landon Homes will be in the 65’s. Landon Signature will be in the 70’s, 74’s and 90’s. Shaddock Homes will be in the 70’s or 74’s. And Toll Brothers will definitely be in the 90’s and possibly 74’s. 

Again, that’s MY guess! 

  
I think that the builders in Lexington will have an overall higher quality of luxury by including one of the Top builders in DFW, Shaddock Homes, comparing builders in Richwoods. 

  

Landon plans to offer an “empty nester” product that I think will be very successful and is needed in Frisco! 

The goal to start pre sale will be in the middle of 2016, but you never know in residential development. 

What we do know is that Lexington has a lot of many positive attributes going for it (from location, builders, amenities, lot sizes and being gated) and will be one of the most highly sought after communities in Frisco

  
“For updates on Lexington check back here or text or call Brad Holden at (469) 733-2723. I plan to stay in touch with all the builders and provide you as much information as they give to me.”

Toll Brothers at Richwoods Glen in Frisco “RELEASES” 10 Lots!


  Toll Brothers at Richwoods Glen in Frisco released 10 lots for sale (starting to sign contracts on August 10th.)

Toll Brothers has a very large interest list of prequalified buyers for this section and they plan to set up meetings with them according to how early they filled out their forms. 

Prices aren’t finalized but I know lot premiums on the new lots range from $5,000 up to $35,000. 

  I wouldn’t be surprised if Toll Brothers raised their current prices by $50,000 because they have been waiting for around three months
Incentive plans to be around $15,000 for options or upgrades. 

For anyone that is already been pre approved by their lender, if you use me as your realtor on the purchase I will give you a $17,000 rebate that you can help offset the new price increase! 

Text or Call Brad Holden today at (469) 733-2723 for more info on Toll Brothers at Richwoods in Frisco!

  The real estate market in Frisco is out of control! 

Landon Homes at Richwoods in Frisco on the 64 foot wide lots opened Phase 22 a little over a month ago on May 10th. And pricing from the phase before raised $34,000! ( No Typo)

Phase 22 has a total of 95 lots. Landon will have 70 and K Hovnanian Homes (KHOV) will have the remaining 25. 

  Landon has already contracted 35 of the 70 in just one month! The demand in Frisco, especially Richwoods, is out of control. 

K Hovnanian Homes plan to release their pricing and available lots for contract in a week or so. 19 of the 25 lots already have lot holds! 

 
Text or call Brad Holden today at (469) 733-2723 for the best rebate on any new home in Phase 22 at Richwoods. I can also help negotiate and confirm that you are getting either Landon or K Hovnanian Homes bottom dollar. 

(REBATES RANGE FROM BUILDER TO BUILDER BUT NORMALLY BUYERS WILL RECEIVE AROUND $15,000-$20,000 ON TOP OF WHAT THE BUILDERS INCENTIVES ARE!)

I also live here in Richwoods, so I can answer pretty much any question you might have about the builders, schools or amenities.

Toll Brothers at Richwoods in Frisco has one premium lot come back on the market this morning!!!


This morning I was in the Toll Brothers Model at Richwoods in Frisco and the salesperson told me that this lot has just come back on the market. 



It is one of my favorite locations backing to the open beautiful park at Richwoods Glen. The original buyers contracted a while ago bout the floor plan they chose cannot fit in the lot so this is a great opportunity for someone to get a premium lot in Richwoods with Toll Brothers. 

The best part is the prices will still be the same and not be the higher ones that will start in the newer section many months from now. So above are the surrender prices and the lot has a $20,000 premium on it (which I can easily get you a better price on). 

Any of the plans above can be built it just depends on what elevation will work. 

My best guess on the new Toll Brothers Lots and pricing will most likely be $25,000 more than what you see here due to the lot cost and demand.

BREAKING NEWS: Baxter Brinkmann of Brinkmann Ranch in Frisco FINALLY sells his first tract of land to Landon Development!


IMG_2158

It’s confirmed, Baxter Brinkmann of Frisco, who owns over 5,500 acres in Collin County has FINALLY sold his first tract of land to Landon Development at the corner of Eldorado and Coit!

IMG_2151

The land is 182.4479 Acres and has been assessed at $20,705,637 by Collin County as its value in 2014. The purchase price for the land is undisclosed, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than that!

Landon Development began their first development in 2012 with RICHWOODS in Frisco off of Independence and Rolater. They really knocked it out of the Park with Richwoods considering it was the #1 selling development in the nation last year!!!

IMG_2212

RICHWOODS in Frisco is a 500 Acre development that was originally planned for 1,600 homes. That number will rise to around 1,700 homes or more because of a smaller product that was introduced after the development started.

IMG_2157

Now back to Brinkmann Ranch. This piece of land has a lot of history, but most notably, as the site where the first 5 episodes of the famous show “Dallas” were filmed in 1978, until the original house burned down.

Baxter Brinkmann is the CEO of the Brinkmann Corporation, maker of Outdoor Grills, flashlights, many other consumer and industrial products, and the owner of Brinkmann Ranch. The Brinkmann Corporation brings in well over $125 million in annual sales.

IMG_1933-0

On the new land, plans are for the 182.4479 acres to be a GATED COMMUNITY! This will be the 2nd gated community for Landon Development in Frisco.

IMG_2213

On the preliminary plat, plans are for 704 homes and two entrances. One entrance off of Coit and the other off of Eldorado. Sales should begin at the beginning of 2016 or possibly a little later.

IMG_2153

Thank you Baxter Brinkmann for finally allowing the exceptional growth of Frisco to continue with a great location and great visionaries in Landon Development. I’m sure they will make another outstanding development here in Frisco.

Stonebrook Crossing in Frisco has so much going for it and most people do not even know about!

20140716-110849-40129188.jpg

This is Huge for location value. K Hovnanian builds an unbelievable home at an affordable price. Take a look at the Westover Floorplan shown below which is their model.

There are deals to be made here since K Hovnanian is ready to complete the neighborhood. Shaddock Homes is not to far away as well on sales so I’m sure they too will be able to be pretty competitive on pricing as well.
