2×6 vs. 2×4 in Richwoods Place . . . You Decide!?!


20120531-153538.jpg

This morning I spent a couple hours at Landon Homes in Richwoods Place writing a contract and my client starting asking questions to Max Luce ,the salesperson, about KHOV.

I always like hearing how the builders salespeople explain their homes in comparison to their competition. So he went straight into pricing, which Landon has the upper hand currently, as expected.

I then intervened and said, “Max, what makes your homes better than KHOV?”

Max immediately, pulled out a sheet and said, “Here’s 27 ways!”

He was pretty accurate for the most part on what they offered compared to KHOV, but the one that Landon always talks about is their use of 2×6’s instead of 2×4’s. (compared in the picture)

Seeing those two boards together like that made me a believer!!! It really makes sense from not only a structural standpoint, but also the extra 2+ inches of exterior insulation.

And also, if a board is thicker and wider, it makes sense that air could not penetrate those boards as easy as 2×4’s.

So that made me think to myself, “Is using 2×6’s instead of 2×4’s that important?

I have a couple of calls out to some custom guys I know and will report back in when I find out.

But what do you think?

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.

Landon Homes in Richwoods raises prices $30,000 since Grand Opening


Landon Pricing CountryIt shocked me too! Believe me!

The 810 plan in Richwoods Country has raised in price $30,000 since the first day that it was in pre-sale in March with Landon Homes. This increase is exactly what I have been trying my hardest to explain to my clients with the rock bottom pricing that Landon had released in their high-end luxury homes.

I had a handful of clients jump in early, and I know they will live me know. One of my clients bought an 810 at $438,000 in Richwoods Landing and their biggest concern was if it would be a good investment. Their financial advisor told them it would not be, and obviously I couldn’t put enough emphasis on the opportunity!!!!

And what do you know, now it’s at $468,000. Hmmmmmm?!?

But they are not done.

This is after looking into traffic, the other builders pricing and anticipation of the amenity center breaking ground. Wait until the second wave of interest when the huge amenity center is erected.

Congratulations on all of you taking advantage and listening to me on getting in early!!!!

A First Look at Richwoods Amenity Center in Frisco


WOW!

This is the plan for the Richwoods Amenity Center.

Here’s the first look at the layout of what is planned to begin construction late June in Richwoods in Frisco.

Projected $10 Million Dollar build-out with a clubhouse, 4,000 square feet workout facility, large banquet room that can be rented out for functions overlooking an unbelievable resort-style pool. The Northern side will be parking and there will be a playground on the South East Corner.

From the layout of the center, the planned exterior look, and the features of the pool element; it looks to me that what Landon Development has done is take the best features from other DFW amenity centers and put it all in one!!!

John Landon Signature Series Model nearing completion at Richwoods in Frisco


20120521-155057.jpg

The newest Luxury line of homes in the city of Frisco is being built in Richwwods called the John Landon Signature Series.

This is a first for John to build in the luxury line with his company Landon Homes, but he has done his homework. He spent many months crossing the country looking at different exterior designs, floorplans, energy features and other home items to combine all into the Signature Series.

The salesperson for Landon in Richwoods Landing and Richwoods Country, Susan Oxley, can’t hardly wait until the model is complete.

“Brad I tell you what. When this model is up and complete, it will have the WOW factor from when you walk through the door to the unbelievable master bath! You just wait!”

Susan Oxley, Landon Homes

And since my own family will be joining the community in the Country, I am happy to say that we are so excited and everything about the process so far has been exceptional.

Landon Homes in Richwoods Glen in Frisco is STILL selling Homes


You would think that in only 2 months of selling the Richwoods Glen, Elmer Carino would be thrilled. Well, he is happy but not thrilled.

In phase one of Richwoods Glen, there are standard 74 feet wide lots that they are sharing with Toll Brothers. Landon only had 21 lots in phase one, and he has already sold 17!!!! But that’s not it.

Landon Homes a couple weeks ago released the second section of Lots, a total of 43. And Elmer has already sold 12 in two weeks!!!

Brad listen, I have 14 hold checks for first right of refusal on lots when I am told they have released them! This is nuts! Let me show you!” Elmer Carino Landon Homes.

And that’s not all. So just in Richwoods Glen, Landon Homes has sold a total of 29 homes in 2 months in Frisco with the homes ranging from $360,000 to $460,000!!!! Somebody please try to tell me the real estate market is not good!!!

Regardless of sales, Elmer fully believes (and so do I) that the largest portion of buyers haven’t walked through the door yet. The reason why, is when the $10 million dollar amenity center breaks ground, it will be another wave of buyers.

Richwoods is definitely one of those communities that doesn’t come around that often!!!!

Richwoods separated in 4 different lot sections in Frisco


John Landon and Landon Development spent months on the design of the community of Richwoods and it definitely shows with how smoothly the sales of lots are going and the North Western direction. See picture.

The ring road, otherwise known as the friendship road, will allow residents the ability to commute to other sections easily on one road. It will also create more of a community feel that other multi-lot section communities do not have.

The importance of this for a development to create community within different sections and price points is very important to not only residents, but for resale values when the time comes.

Richwoods is destined to be a location that will really put Frisco on the map when looking for top residential developments that have everything a family needs.

For more info visit Richwoods Frisco TX to see videos and request specific builders available homes and pricing.

KHOV in Richwoods Model nearing Completion in Frisco


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!
