Great video thank you so much! This area seems like it’s going to be great. Hopefully the schools will improve as more people move out there! Very exciting about onion creek and mckinney state falls being close by.
What we really need in Austin is to have EVERY property have wetlands and ponds to collect runoff from the streets in in front of them. You can see in several places in Austin such as Stacey Park where the city has done this. It can be really beautiful and not as gross as you might thing. It greens the lawns, saving money, while bringing wildlife and control flooding in the rest of Austin. It also cleans the water and allows it to be slowly absorbed allowing us to have clear, clean streams year-round. That water could also be used to make ponds and other water features. We could have robust cypress and pecan trees which would also cool and shade the city.
Great content and overview Ray! I agree with all you stated for the most part. Lots of upside here and taxes are a bummer! Schools still a bit early to tell. For air traffic, no bother yet. They don’t get to close so the noise is not an issue. Keep up the great work. Subscribed +
@@WhereToLiveInAustin Do you have any opinions about meritage homes? My wife and I are looking to buy a new build where we can avoid the bidding process! There's only a few out there, so just washed to see your opinion
@@CensorededsWhich neighborhood? With builders, a lot comes down to who is managing a specific neighborhood for the builder. Meritage can be hit or miss. The bad news is that most production builders currently have the "You should be happy were selling you a home" attitude right now, which isn't great for buyers. Most builders are building at a scale they typically don't build at and the output is less than desirable. Because of this shift in building approach / quality Iv'e recently started doing 4-5 inspections for my clients throughout the build process. It's the only way I can be sure it's done right. You would be amazed at some of the errors we have been uncovering. I would suggest that you do something like that, regardless of the builder you use. That being said, I would ask the Meritage rep / builder if they will work with "phase inspections". Most every builder will. That means they will correct most inspection items found. If they say "no", that is a red flag and I might move on. That being said, just finding a builder who isn't doing bidding is a needle in a haystack :-)
Thank you so much for this video! Easton Park is such a cool overall concept. Will you review Bratton Hill by Taylor Morrison (formerly WLH community) in Wells Branch and Preston Village by Pulte?
Stumbled upon your channel and I’m so happy I did. What do you think about the possible appreciation of surrounding areas like Cypress Ridge given the investments Goodnight Ranch and Easton Park will be making? Or will these new developments make those areas less attractive?
Always do your research, homework, and due-diligence first. Asides from the failing school district, and airport 'exhaust' pollution .... make yourself aware of the nearby landfills in this area. East Austin is notorious for landfills, waste management systems, and the burning of excess methane gases (24/7). And many of them are signing contracts with the city to permit expansion (getting bigger). Easton Park is literally within proximity of Travis County Landfill (by the airport), and the Texas Disposable Systems Landfill (by Creedmoor). Is it worth spending $400K -to- $450K to live next to all this ?
Cecilia Suarez It was the ghetto. South East Austin is the worst part of Austin. I always prefer to be on the West side of 35, unless you’re central. Now, they are trying to make it nice and is a very affordable way to get closer to downtown Austin.

Nicely done ! Great video .

:) so glad you did this video south East!!!
Great video!
Coming back to this over a year later looking at Perry homes for 400k. God I wish!
Me too, current pricing makes this video seems like it's a decade old.

@@WhereToLiveInAustin We're looking primarily at Easton Park!
Hi! I love your videos are very helpful. I was wondering is there something like this on the north of Austin/Round Rock area?
Thank you so much for this video! Easton Park is such a cool overall concept. Will you review Bratton Hill by Taylor Morrison (formerly WLH community) in Wells Branch and Preston Village by Pulte?
can you talk about the east side of Austin soon?
Great video! Can you do Whisper Valley as well?

Any good churches, EAST of I-35 between Slaughter Ln & Ben White?

One problem is William Cannon is going to get bigger and noisier...
I don’t like this part of town. But, the houses in the neighborhood are nice.
Why you don't like this part of town?

Victoria Garcia I don’t think it is totally “the ghetto” . Crime rates are more prevalent near downtown actually towards i-35
