4% Total Rebate for Richwoods and Lawler Park ends on the 20th


The 4% Total Rebate that ends on August 20th for all new contracts using Brad Holden as your Realtor has been a tremendous success!!!

20120812-203357.jpg

This is very simple. If you are considering either Richwoods or Lawler Park in Frisco. Richwoods quality builders like Toll Brothers, Landon Homes, KHOV OR Newcastle are all eligible for my 4% Total Rebate incentive.

The reason why using me is a no brainer, is when you realize that all of these builders will not decrease the sales price a normal “3% realtor commission” it only makes sense to use my representation on your transaction.

Call me now at (469) 733-2723 and introduce yourself and ask me if I can help you on purchasing a new home.

Even in Lawler Park with either Darling Homes or Highland Homes, the same incentive goes.

Not only am I purchasing a home and will be a resident of Richwoods, I have sold numerous homes in both Richwoods and Lawler Park due to the best “Representative Rebate in Frisco.”

“The only reason I can provide this is because I am my own independent real estate broker. Most other agents with Keller Williams, ReMax or Ebby can’t offer this incentive because their company won’t allow this or they do not see the value.”

I see a tremendous value since I will be in the neighborhood, I am hoping that my own neighbors will come to me when the time it is to sell.

I will also offer my negotiation at contract if you would like to get the best deal or max out the incentives. I know what the builders will consider and what they will not when it’s negotiation time. Or if you would like to use my rebate just let the builder representative know and they will call me to get the instructions on how to apply the rebate.

I have compared my 4% Total Rebate to what other realtors offer and cannot find another client incentive that is close.

Again, call me at (469) 733-2723 or e-mail me at b@holdennewhomes.com to maximize your new home experience and minimize your total out of pocket expenses!

Toll Brothers Valencia Model in Richwoods


20120810-123419.jpg

Toll Brothers in Richwoods is nearing their completion of their model for The Country Section called the Valencia in a BIG way!

It is very hard to impress me with floorplans, but I can honestly say that this plan is the widest and most open plan that I have ever seen!

The Entry alone is almost overwhelming with the wider stairs at the starter step rising to the beautiful catwalk with the 20+ foot ceilings in the family.

20120810-123800.jpg

Continuing on, the kitchen is enormous, hallway to Master huge and the master bath and shower . . . Ridiculous!!!!

So when this model is finished, make it a point to check this place out!

And if you are purchasing a new home in Richwoods or Lawler Park don’t forget about my 4% Total Move-In Rebate until August 20th, the best rebate in DFW!!!!

Richwoods in Frisco Model Home Update


20120709-212215.jpg

Newcastle Homes model
In Richwoods is adding Stone. The owner mentioned that he was projecting completion of the model in the next 45-60 days. It’s going to be a great open plan and be a big seller for Newcastle.

20120709-212424.jpg

The John R. Landon Signature Series model has been slowly coming together, but starting to look incredible.

20120709-212550.jpg

The 52 inch cabinets sure make a difference when you look at the kitchen. Even with just a couple of lighting fixtures in the rooms, this model is going to be one “High-End” home!

20120709-212812.jpg

And Lastly, the Toll Brothers “Wow” Model is starting to take form. We all know the design of Toll will blow the competition away with their in house architects, but so will the price. From what I know about Toll, when Richwoods is all built out this model will probably sell for $1.2mm!!!! No joke!

If you would like any more info on available lots, builders, prices, etc. feel free to call me directly at (469) 733-2723.

Also, the newest community Lawler Park will begin Pre-selling in the next week or so. Lawler Park is directly North of Richwoods and Darling Homes and Highland Homes will be the builders.

I will be hosting an informational event for my clients this Thursday the 12th at 5:30PM. If you would like to learn more about this exciting community please RSVP here to attend. It is one of those incredible opportunities getting in on the ground floor of a community!

Toll Brothers Model in Richwoods Country Underway


20120626-084913.jpg

Even with a couple boards up, the excitement for seeing something for Toll Brothers in Richwoods will make a big difference.

It is very difficult for people to envision a plan on paper before they can walk through and this will help ease buyers concerns.

As of today, Toll Brothers has sold a total of 7 homes and are doing a great job only selling off paper but once the model is complete, things will pick up big time.

I know this because of the other Richwoods models greatly helped people actually “see” what they were buying and made the move.

So time will tell but mark my words, when the model is complete, Toll Brothers will see a tremendous pick up in sales.

Richwoods Round-Up for Friday June 15th, 2012


There has been a tremendous amount of activity at Richwoods in Frisco.

“As of today, there is a total of 91 homes contracted on in RICHWOODS!!! That is amazing!!! That is all 4 builders combined: Newcastle Homes, Toll Brothers, KHOV and Landon Homes.”

As you can see from the video, things are moving quick!

There are currently 3 completed Models. ( 2 for Landon in Richwoods Place and Richwoods Glen; and KHOV’s in Richwoods Place) The new KHOV model is complete and Kim Stewart will be moving in the model tomorrow! The Newcastle Model is slated for Sheetrock in the next couple days, and the John Landon Signature Series model is about a couple weeks to go. (Story about the models to follow)

There are currently 7 homes for homeowners being built and another 12-15 that have the frame boards up and are waiting in line. All of these homes are Landon’s in the 64’s and some are in the 74’s which are in waiting.

K Hovnanian (KHOV) will start all of their homes in the first phase and plan to close them all by the end of KHOVs fiscal year which is at the end of October. 2 will be specs right now and there will not be a huge discount as usual with specs because they plan on selling both full price.

Newcastle plans to start 2 of their homes next week. And Toll Brothers is up in the air. They have not started either of their two models.

Newcastle Homes in Richwoods is the “sleeper”


Newcastle Homes Model in Frisco

Newcastle brings the luxury feel with a Texas look.

When I speak to a completely new buyer about Richwoods, there are the same questions asked that I feel I have perfected the answers:

  1. Who are the builders?
  2. What are the prices?
  3. What are the Lot sizes?
  4. Who gives the best incentives/deals?

And so on . . .

The most important question is the one that is never asked, “Who is the best builder?”

Now, promoting Richwoods in general, it is my job to give information regarding all of the builders as the same and all are the best right? WRONG!

I am a critic too, just like anyone that walks into a house for the first time.  Either it WOWs you or it Confuses you about certain aspects and features that just don’t seem right.  Long story short, there is a difference.

Landon and K Hovnanian are Production builders, and Toll Brothers in borderline.  These three are at the top of their field when it comes to volume and building a great home.  Toll will make more changes, where Landon will, but not as many.  Same with KHOV, they will make changes but not as many as Toll.  Toll is thousands higher in price, but will allow changes.  KHOV is higher than Landon, but includes a little more standard and will do a couple more changes.  And I can go on and on and on and on . . .

“THE BEST BUILDER IS YOUR PREFERENCE!”

Newcastle Kitchen

The Newcastle Kitchen mixes modern with a Texas feel.

Newcastle Home in Richwoods is the ONLY “True” Custom Builder currently.  Yes, the other three are semi-custom, but you can have whatever you like with Newcastle!  This reason and the fact that many do not know who Newcastle is, are my main reasons they are going to start selling a tremendous amount of homes in the next couple months.

The model that they currently have under construction will blow people’s minds with the couple unique features that you will have to see in the next 45 days.

Not only that, but you also have the attention of one of the owners, Robert Jones, throughout the process and he looks at every home he builds as if it were his own.  They make a point to make your home something you are proud of and shows your tastes and personality.

The other huge pluses about Newcastle are they look at traffic patterns and position room in plans that makes sense.  They maximize the window space for the most natural lighting and use staircases for not only convenience but privacy as well.

Newcastle isn’t for everyone, but if you like the better things in life and are looking for a new home, be prepared the first time you walk into a Newcastle home because it will be love at first sight!

The Newcastle Porte-Cochere

Currently, Newcastle is the only builder offering a Porte-Cochere in Richwoods.

RICHWOODS in Frisco Total Sales Count as of today


20120529-201857.jpg

The total number of sales in Richwoods in Frisco (as of today) is at a total of 87!!! So after only 2.5 months, there have been 87 families commit to being a Richwoods resident.

The sales are as follows for each builder:

Landon Homes : 77
Newcastle Homes: 3
K Hovnanian: 6
Toll Brothers: 1

Granted, Landon is selling in all sections and have had a entire month jump on the other builders to sell, but numbers speak.

Newcastles frame on their model is up
And should be finished in the next 45-60 days. They plan to put a lot of specs on the ground as well.

K Hovnanian (KHOV) has only two lots in its first section and 5 lot holds in the next section when the lots open up.

Toll Brothers is quite a mystery to me. I have spoken to many people for months that only want Toll Brothers and from 1 contract and 6 lot holds, that is very odd to me.
