I have a home being built here!!!! So excited . DR Horton has been great. If you are building they pay for a realtor of your choosing to represent you. Also have no problem with you getting 3rd party inspections for foundation, pre-drywall , post drywall.
I live in watercrest. Here are some of my thoughts: Pros: one of very few, if any, nice wide sidewalks throughout entire neighborhood, draws people together. Nice wide roads, fantastic master plan, (closet to 900 homes). People who bought homes 2018-2020 saw an increase in value of about 150% between 2020 and 2021, likely the largest growth in value in all of Montgomery County, properties. Cons: HOA, currently $1040 per year, (but less than many other communities of this caliber. Mud tax goes up with tax increases. DR Horton homes, while nicely thought out weren't built with the care or precision of a custom home.
Thank you John for your insider perspective. I wish I would have talked to you earlier about overall size instead of relying on my gumball counting skills!
you are welcome. When we moved to Texas, we stayed with my wife's relatives in Conroe, nearby, about a year, while we we looked for a home. Our criteria was not too many trees (yet), sidewalks throughout the neighborhood, a good master plan and a nearby pool. This was the only area with everything we wanted, plus 2 pools and a boat ramp and more.
Hey Jeff, just starting to follow your channel. We are currently living in the state of Washington and my wife is transferring to the woodlands, which is forcing me to retire. OH NO!! LOL Anyway I'm 100 percent disabled through the VA and I understand we are free from paying those pesky property taxes. Does that include the MUD tax?
Hello and thank you for reaching out! First of all thank you for your service. Second of all, it is one of the biggest benefits of being a disabled vet. I have had five clients this year that were 100% disabled vets and the answer is yes. You pay zero in property taxes, MUD being one of those taxes. It is an amazing way to get into some of the nicest newer neighborhoods with the highest taxes because of muds, for significantly less than anyone else. If you’d like a conversation with one of my military clients who’s gone through the process, I would be happy to connect you. In the meantime, if you need help finding the right place or anything else related to the relocation, just reach out.
Looking to buy a home at water crest as a vacation home. I’m from California, there’s one available under 300k. How’s the neighborhood? Is it safe? What’s the ethnicity of the people that live in that area?
Just saw this. I guess Ill have to tell my clients who are moving in this month that both of their just built houses aren't really $375k like the contract says. My other client who just bought a resale home for a little under $300k will have to go give the seller more money because an internet guy said nothing cost that little.

Sounds like you did it right!
My home is on the corner @2:45
Looks like I've got 2 clients closing this month on your street! (If the city can get the power on)

Does Water Crest have a gym?
@@bf5ft10in no, they have no gym. Only a pool house with a kid pool and a lap pool, and a boat ramp.

Lol I love your videos and thank you for showing us this community in person and in video. We really enjoyed our visit
I’m looking forward to making Texans of you and your family! ☺️

@conroeliving thanks Jeff. We will be reaching out.
I like whatever they put on muffulettas. Stuff I can’t pronounce, much less spell!
I believe that would be tapenade. 😂
Does Water Crest have a gym?
Unfortunately, there is no gym.
Turkey! Any way you serve it..
Thanks for playing!

Yes the neighborhood is safe. It is a diverse neighborhood.
@@conroeliving I also just noticed KB homes building in Willis Texas. What’s your thoughts on that city and build site?
I’d be happy to give you my thoughts on KB or any other builder. Shoot me an email at jeff@jeffwestproperties.com
300k to just above 500k?? 😂😂😂 nothing is close to being as low as 300, more like high 500s to over a million for cookie cutter homes
Look at plan E40R 😬 380 k my friend .
