    Closing on my spec home next Friday hopefully it’s absolutely perfect. Everything that I wanted as soon as I walked in in two minutes I knew that was the one absolutely perfect out in Waller. Close on mine by downtown next Wednesday and my new one next Friday. The spec home … I actually end up getting it about 80,000 under the list price cause they showed me the sheet… so I did pretty good 😢 2600 square-foot all brick 2 1/2 car garage four bedroom three full bath, two walk-in showers , huge patio, small yard sprinkler system out in Waller. I’m excited to be back to a one story house again.

    Why aren't there car owner associations? We need our cars to be regulated to maintain value and safety for the community of drivers.

      I think they are both going to be good communities! Good mix of builders. Plus, the area is about to grow substantially as a couple of more communities are also planned in the next 2 years. Only thing I’d watch is the high speed train that’s been proposed through the area. Nothing is set in stone but parts of it goes through those communities (with the current proposed map)

  • @CosmicTrekker
    @CosmicTrekker 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

    The only issue I have with specs is that they seem to take a base model, change a few tiles and backsplashes, maaaaaybe do a structural upgrade or two, and jack the price up $75-$100k when they start building it. Then they keep bringing the price down as it nears completion. Once it's completed and nobody's bought it yet, they don't want to hang onto it, so they slam the price down to either around where it should be or maybe slightly higher hoping someone will buy it if they haven't already. I still don't see the appeal (at least in my case) of buying a spec/inventory home unless it's close to completion, and it doesn't seem even then you're really getting a great deal in exchange for you not getting much, if any, design choices in the house.

    • @livinginhouston

    I appreciate the negatives more than the positives. I live in the Meridiana right now in TX and I hate it. Over priced HOA, crap maintenance of areas, crappy events and super high taxes. If you are ok paying 10k+ in taxes for a 300k home at the end of every year, good luck. I also have a shitty David wkly home and I don't recommend this builder EVER. Negative experience with salesperson so I hope I never go through this again. I have major buyers remorse. I wish there were a negatives video before i purchased and did more research. I hate how the back of my home has a centered wifi telecom box that connects everyone else's wifi. Centerpoint gas came by and dug into my yard and never restored it properly after they dug. The utility easements should always be in the Front of the house not the backyard. ugh.

    Agree with your concerns. Had the same concerns as well. Have been going there for months now looking for an investment home. You do get what you pay for with the low end builders but I eventually found an average builder that was good value and made an offer. My plan is to hold for 10 years and sell. Hopefully the area appreciates! Agree Elyson is better but they are much stricter on investment homes.
