Richwoods Round-Up for Friday June 15th, 2012

Jun15

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.

KHOV model in Richwoods is looking good!

Soaring Ceilings!

KHOV Model in Richwoods is almost done!

If you walk through the doors, you will see what I mean! The KHOV model in Richwoods is definitely not the quality that I had in mind.

Don’t get me wrong, K Hovnanian can build a great house, I just was not expecting this quality in Richwoods.

They are either putting a lot of upgrades in as standards, or loading it up with upgrades.

Unique Pendant Lights!

From the soaring ceiling on the entry, the staircase, the high-end granite and upgraded lighting package with the pendants in the kitchen or the two or three rooms that have the large wooden beams on the ceiling, KHOV is doing it right.

Looks like they are around 2 weeks out. Can’t wait to see it finished!!

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.

K Hovnanian (KHOV) in Richwoods bumps prices June 1st

May30

20120530-144528.jpg

K Hovnanian (KHOV) in Richwoods plans to increase prices June 1st, after selling out phase one in less than 45 days.

Kim Stewart the salesperson for K Hovnanian at Richwoods works, and obviously sells. Or is it KHOV? Or maybe Richwoods?

Regardless, all 3 together is a lethal combination for anyone walking into the make shift model at Craig Ranch in McKinney down the street from Richwoods.

The increase plans to be $6,000-$7,000 per plan. This is due to having only 2 lots not under contract and with already 5 lot holds in Phase 2.

And this has all been done without any model to show! Luckily their model in Richwoods is slated to be complete and ready June 18th-ish.

RICHWOODS in Frisco Total Sales Count as of today

May30

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.

The KHOV model home for their lots in Richwoods Place is ahead of schedule.

They went with an exterior elevation that incorporates stone, brick and a wood feature that is coming together very nicely.

Each Richwoods KHOV home will also include walk-in master bedroom closets, custom, oak stair railings and spindles, six-panel wood-grain doors, and more.

KHOV in Richwoods Model nearing Completion in Frisco

May12

It always amazes me when these builders erect these models so fast!

KHOV began their model Mid April here at Richwoods, and should have it complete in a couple weeks! That’s close to 45 days! Huh!

But now I get it after being exposed to this model almost every other day. At one point when we were in the Landon model writing a contract, we stopped, pulled up the blinds, and counted 28 workers!!! 28!

The one thing that got me was the gentleman 25 feet high standing on a 2 by 4 and just working away! (see pic below) Don’t sign me up!!!

So if you are thinking about KHOV in Richwoods as your builder, the time is now. In 6 months these prices will be at a minimum $25,000 higher.

Call me today at (469) 733-2723 to discuss the Richwoods Rebate Program if you are looking to buy!
