Not on these DR Horton houses. Seriously, my husband and I thought Hammock Bay sounded so nice (I think in the future it will be), and then we drove through there and couldn't get out of there fast enough after seeing some of the crap DR-H is building in there. There should really be a little bit for ARB control.
I've been in other Dr-H houses and they are okay, but I just really think they went WAY on the cheap in Hammock Bay and it shows.

Maybe then can market them as "Fixers"...a little GCT, SS, "Contractor Beige Paint" & Pergo and Voila'!! You can re-sell them at a $20,000 loss. :blink:

A few weeks ago I went to a Freeport City Hall meeting and several plans were approved for medical manufacturing warehouses, a medical clinic, a grocery store and even a retirement community. All of them will be located along the expansion route. I was very impressed with the way Freeport is heading. Although it is far from happening those types of high paying jobs will help support a strong local economy. Some of those 4000+ units may be absorbed and then it will not lay entirely on retires. It will also be a plus for retires that do move in.

I saw a home sold in there a couple of days ago at under $300K. It was something like 2600sf with a two car garage, in a gated community with golf course, swimming pool and tennis courts.

Retirement home market in this state alone is very competitive, and Freeport is up against some pretty heavy players who are already further along in terms of development and infrastructure. I'm thinking of places like Flagler County and The Villages.
FYI...The Villages is more than 50 percent to buildout.

I have a lot in Hammock Bay that I would sell for the loan value. Other things are more important to me.

DR Horton is building a house next to my lot and I could not believe the price he was asking, and it was not on that advertisement. The house will never sell for what he wants.

i would also be interested in a "partnership" with a builder to put a home priced between 275-299K on the property.

If anyone is intersted, please pm me.

Thanx

That is something. That makes the second sale this year in Windswept Estates under $300K, the other was actually on the 8th hole. I just played golf out there yesterday and the pool and tennis area is completed. There was nobody out there playing golf - I really like the course, not sure if it was dead because of Mother's Day or if the summer slow down is upon us. When I played in March the place was loaded with snowbirds taking advantage of reduced green fees.
