Hello!

I am so excited to announce four brand new communities coming to Katy TX, Conroe TX, Porter TX, and Magnolia TX. The growth that has been happening in the Houston suburbs over the last 2 years has be astronomical, and one contributing factor has been all of the new construction options. With all of the competitiveness happening in the resale market, it might not surprise you when I share with you that over 50% of my buyers right now are new construction buyers. There are many reasons behind this, but not having to pay over asking price, being able to close over 30 days out, the abundance of options, and the idea of having something no one else has lived in have really fueled the new construction sales in the last 9 months.

Now you might have heard me talk about reasons not to buy new construction, with high property tax rates being the only real reason, but if you look at the cost of improvements, renovations, and every day maintenance that occurs in a home over 10 years old, it is actually a wash in paying that higher than average property tax rate. So with that said, let me jump in and share with you these four new communities. And this blog post is actually focusing on four new communities where you are going to find the most affordability.

Is your home search focused on new construction. We can help you with that! I love nothing more than guiding my clients to the perfect neighborhood to fit their needs. And just in case you are new to the home buying process, the builder actually pays me a referral fee (commission) to make the connection between the builder (them) and the buyer (you). I pride myself on my expertise in guiding new construction home buyers through the whole buying process, from start to finish. So if you are considering new construction, I hope you reach out to me. Hugs, Jo.
