By Tom Branch, on April 29th, 2011 To Be or Not to Be? That is the question…
Gina met with some of the good people at Ashton Woods a couple of weeks ago. As part of the initial develpment of the 32 acres located in west Allen, they are considering being part of the Twin Creeks master planned community.
While the numbers have not been firmed up, we extimate being part of Twin Creeks would add about $600 a year to the Homeowners Association dues. In return, owners would have access to all the Twin Creeks amenities including pools, parks, tennis, walking paths, private lakes, and the softball fields. The golf course has optional user fees but would otherwise be available to residents.
What do you think? Would you pay an extra $600 a year for The Preserve in Allen to be part of Twin Creeks and have access to all the Twin Creeks amenities? Let us know below.

By Tom Branch, on April 19th, 2011 We’ve been following this project ever since the sign went up on the 32 acres in west Allen. We drove by the other day and the developer has started breaking ground!
Most of the large native oak trees had protective rings installed around them so the heavy equipment operators would avoid damaging them. Once the basic layout is completed, they can begin installing utilities and pouring the roads.
We spoke to Ashton Woods and they are on-schedule to start pre-selling in November 2011.
We’ll post updates as more becomes available.

By Tom Branch, on April 15th, 2011 Another short sale closed! The sellers avoided foreclosure, the buyers purchased a nice home at a discount, and the lender did not have the losses involved with a foreclosure.
Many people feel that the nation’s economy rises and falls with the housing market. While this is often true, we believe the current housing crisis is a direct result of the economic downturn and massive job loss across the nation.
In the Short Sale community, the vast majority of homeowners did not get a bad loan or buy more house than they could afford; they’re just good, hardworking Americans who fell on bad times.
All indicators point to Short Sales being on the real estate horizon for the foreseeable future, at least through 2012, and maybe longer.
We encourage homeowners across the United States to get educated on the options available should they become financially distressed. Short Sales are a great tool, providing relief to all parties.
Just remember to choose a REALTOR® with a proven Short Sale track record to negotiate on your behalf. Making the right choice can mean the world of difference to your financial future.
