Trending Real Estate New Home Construction Standards

Nov28

20121128-151418.jpg

I have sold now over 60 homes in Richwoods and Lawler Park in Frisco Texas. Through these many transactions, I have seen the new trends that buyers are looking for and builders are making their dreams come true.

This is what I feel is coming up in the years to come that is changing in New Construction in the years to come for North Texas families, and he gave me some interesting things that he saw in General and what Darling is doing to make their floorplans timeless and sellable in the next Decade. The Darling Model Homes at Lawler Park in Frisco really helps display the wants and need with their finishout details. The Landon Home model in the Glen section in Richwoods shows the new trend of sectioning off rooms throughout the house.

Start looking for the following trends:

Formals are going away. Darling Homes is builiding more plans with options to change the dining room into a downstairs Media room or game room.

The open kitchen concept is not going away anytime soon

.

The open kitchen and living room concept will be around along time in any new home.

Builders are now focusing on lines of sight and sound barriers with their floorplan designs. They try their best to avoid ‘echo boxes’ by allowing for spaces to be closed off if needed or options to seperate noisy living or gaming areas for children.

Casitas or Mother In Law in-house suites with Garage or Outside Access.

The Darling Model in Lawler Park in the Crossing allows for the Mother in Law to come and go as they please without even distubing the rest of the household. And in Lawler Park they can build this in the mid 400’s. Can you imagine Luxury living in the premier South Frisco community for very realistic prices?

Straight Staircases are coming back.

Top Quality materials and thick wood wrapped cases make them still a focal point even without all the frills of the curved case.

Exposed Cedar stained beams at the vaulted cathedral ceilings in the living room.

Another custom home feature for a non custom home price.

Call or Text me today (469) 733-2723 for a tour of Lawler Park in Frisco Texas or Richwoods in Frisco. Let me tell you more about why these communities are HANDS DOWN, the best in DFW.

Lawler Park Olympic Sized Swimming Pool

Nov2

20121102-153542.jpg

The Lawler Park amenity center in Frisco is well underway. The pool is currently being constructed and actually surprised me with its size.

I initially downplayed the amenity center after seeing the Richwoods mammoth sized pool, but after seeing it, the pool is very large for a 350 home community.

Not only the pool, they also have plans for a large playground structure on the other side and in between will be two bathrooms with a large arbor and picnic tables.

So all in all, the amenity center will be fantastic for families and children.

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!
