Decisions, Decisions! New Construction Home or Pre-Existing Home in Antioch, CA. (Part II)
In Part I of this Series, we primarily discussed the pro's and con's of purchasing a new construction home in Antioch. Today in Part II, we will focus on the pro's and con's of purchasing a Pre-Existing home in Antioch, CA.
Antioch has a number of pre-existing homes in established neighborhoods through out the community. Although the majority of the homes in Antioch were built after 1990, there are a few neighborhoods built prior to that time. The homes in Mira Vista Hills, a lovely community sitting high among the hills above James Donlon Boulevard were built in the 1980's. Many of these homes have nice views, side access yards, mature and lush gardens and do not have Antioch Mello Roos Tax. The historic downtown area of Antioch has many homes which, although smaller than some of the new homes, have some nice features and many do not have the Antioch Mello Roos Tax.
Other pre-existing homes built after 1990 in Antioch include; Bear Ridge, Canada Hills, Country Hills, Eagle Ridge, Lone Tree Estates, Meadow Creek Estates, Prewett Ranch, Sterling Summit, The Estates at Black Diamond, Wildhorse, Wildflower, and Williamson Ranch just to name a few. Some of these pre-existing homes have updated and remodeled kitchens including granite counters, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances. Some of these homes have Antioch Mello Roos Tax which has expired or is close to expiring in the near future. Depending upon the neighborhood, some homes may have such amenities as incredible views, close to hiking trails or Antioch Parks and schools, larger lots or smaller yards for those who prefer less maintenance, and close to major thorough fares for commuting and public transportation. There is great value in considering a pre-existing home to purchase in Antioch.
However, there are pre-existing homes for sale in Antioch that still have the Antioch Mello Roos Tax for quite a few more years. Some of these homes are dated in their appearance inside and out, however many of the homes can be purchased at an incredible value. Since 2005 Antioch has seen a significant change in the housing market. This has resulted in many Foreclosures, Auctions and available Short Sale Homes. Foreclosures, Auctions and Short Sales have provided prospective Home Owners an opportunity to purchase a home in Antioch at a remarkable price.
