Jul12

20130711-235113.jpg

Two of the highly anticipated sections of Richwoods in Frisco have been named Richwoods Heights and Richwoods Crossing.

The excitement for the latest sections is Coit Road. I have had many buyers that wanted to hold off for this opportunity and they are projected to start in early 2014.

20130711-235648.jpg

Richwoods Heights is a continuation of the Richwoods Glen product and Richwoods Meadows product with standard 74 foot wide by 120 deep.

Richwoods Crossing is a continuation of Richwoods Place product and Richwoods Corners product with a standard 64 foot wide by 115 deep.

Each section plans to have oversized lots and to have easy access to both the Coit and Rolater Gate.

20130709-081621.jpg

K Hovnanian (KHOV) at Richwoods in Frisco is closing out! They have just started to market the model home for sale.

As you can see above, the models entry is outstanding! The curved staircase is beautiful. Continue to walk straight and the home opens to a large family room and executive chef kitchen below.

20130709-082312.jpg

The Model is 4,111 square feet – 5 bedroom with 4.5 Baths! It also includes an unbelievable study upstairs gameroom that connects to a media room. It also has a 3.5 car garage!!!

K Hovnanian is including all of the drapes, fridge, mini fridge in wet bar, outdoor kitchen and all of the media equipment in the media room.

20130709-082759.jpg

But the most important part and why this home really matters is the backyard feature. There are around 15 to 20 large trees behind the property that are gorgeous! There is also a large open area between the home and the soon to be homes behind.

20130709-083000.jpg

It is an opportunity that doesn’t come around that often. Also being located where it is in the neighborhood and so close to the amenity center and the entrance is also a very important factor to consider.

They also have 5 specs that will all be complete in October with close out pricing.

Call me today if you have any other questions or would like to take a look at it at (469) 733-2723.

Richwoods North Gates are Up in Frisco!

Jun19

20130619-145554.jpg

The North entrance of Richwoods has gates! This has been one of the key factors to closing the main gates.

20130619-145712.jpg

I fully expect the community to be closed at night and the developer to give the residents the key readers in the next week or so.

20130619-145912.jpg

Very exciting for Richwoods residents!!!

Darling Homes sells 5 just this weekend at Lawler Park in Frisco

Jun17

20130617-133707.jpg

Darling Homes at Lawler Park has sold 5 homes just this weekend!

With the opening of the new phase and the prices still relatively low for the location to where they will end up and factor in the interest rates, the time to buy a house is now.

20130617-133852.jpg

I was at a contract meeting with Sia Mianab the salesperson with Darling in Lawler Park and he was really putting a great perspective on what is happening right now in this crazy market.

While negotiating for the best deal, he was “trying to” keep the prices down with his corporate. He mentioned that he has over 7 appointments today and tomorrow that were waiting on this second phase and he mentioned his corporate was limiting him on how many homes he is allowed to sell per month. Wow!

20130617-134248.jpg

Not to mention that his new front entry plans like the one above ate absolutely amazing!!!! I haven’t seen a plan that works that well on these 65 foot wide lot size. This plan is around 3,800 square feet and the base price is $447,990.

20130617-134436.jpg

If you are looking for a new home and want the best deal and best rebate as well on your purchase, call Brad Holden today to discuss where you are at in the process. Prices are only going up.

“And ask me about my 4% Total Rebate that I can extend to my clients that purchase in Richwoods or Lawler Park in Frisco this month.”

4,000 foot one-story in Richwoods in Frisco

Jun12

20130612-095245.jpg

My wife loves one stories! So the good husband I am, agreed to build a one-story home in Richwoods.

My number one concern though is the footprint of the home taking up so much of the lot. Fortunately, the lot we chose was oversized and perfect for what we wanted.

20130612-100334.jpg

It is rare to find an opportunity to build a one story with a yard in a desired location, but at Richwoods it is possible.

We built with John Landon Signature Series and have an absolutely incredible home!

For more info on builders, available lots or plans and pricing for Richwoods in Frisco call me at (469) 733-2723.

And feel free to call me and take a look at our home if you are considering a one-story. I do not mind.

Why Stone Edging Matters.

Jun12

20130612-092730.jpg

I am a big stone edging advocate. I can’t stand when the grass comes through the mulch in the flower beds!

On a house that I owned before this one in Richwoods, I had stone edging done and it looked good. But one day I noticed that there was grass in the mulch and needless to say, I was frustrated.

20130612-093012.jpg

Well as I was shopping contractors I found a no-nonsense stone guy that has been doing stone on new homes for over 12 years.

20130612-093137.jpg

I asked him if there was anyway to block the grass growing under the stone wall and in the beds and he looked befuddled.

20130612-093257.jpg

He told me that it CAN’T grow into the flower beds. And I was both skeptical and excited.

What he does differently is he digs 4 to five inches down and uses rebar in the trough and then levels it and adds concrete. That is all that happens on the first day.

20130612-093536.jpg

The second day is when they start adding stone and mortar after the base concrete dries.

20130612-093700.jpg

It made sense to me, so lets just see if the grass doesn’t sneak it’s way through!

20130612-093812.jpg

And for resale, it will get you back every penny! Well worth the investment!

Why is Newcastle selling so well? It’s simple.

Newcastle Homes has been around for many years in DFW. They have seen the ups and downs. They get it.

They also know what the buyer wants and have accommodated my clients wishes as best as they can.

20130612-091208.jpg

And they are by far the no-nonsense builder in Richwoods. Their prices have always been higher but they include the upgrades, wants and needs that you will be including with Toll Brothers or John Landon Signature Series.

They build a beautiful Porte Cochere plan that just makes sense. They build in the 4,200 to 5,200 range and normally include 5 bedrooms and always 3 car garages.

20130612-091653.jpg

Board on board 8 foot fence – standard. Upgraded Landscaping Package – Standard. And on and on and on.

20130612-091804.jpg

They definitely have a Texas exterior and it works!!! They are also building a stucco product and it as well works.

Richwoods in Frisco Pool Review

Jun10

20130610-160100.jpg

This weekend, we ventured down to the pool at Richwoods both Saturday and Sunday and I will report that it is definitely is the best and Biggest community pool on North Texas!

The close to 8,000 square feet of Water is almost overwhelming when walking through the gate. A key fob is required when entering and you can enter in two different locations. There are 4 arbors scattered through the grounds for shade.

The kids area is fantastic with an entry at 6 inches and goes up to around 2.5 feet with fours small water fountain features.

20130610-161006.jpg

There is an awesome slide that is very deceiving, because it is FAST!!! A basketball goal is permanently cemented into the ground and there are poles for a volleyball net.

But what is just incredible is the size. It looks big when you first see it, but when you are in it WOW! It takes forever to get from one side to the other. A pool this big should be able to handle the number of homes in Richwoods.

And here is my small guy both days in the pool. My oldest was too excited to pose!

20130610-161353.jpg

20130610-161419.jpg
