Walnut Creek by Potterhill Homes Lebanon Ohio 45036

Looking for a newer home in the Lebanon area? Either newer resale or new construction? Then Walnut Creek development might be a great place for you! Located in Lebanon, Walnut Creek is a Potterhill Homes development. Planned for 70 homes when complete, it's near the halfway point, with Phase II lots now available.

UPDATE AUGUST 2020: POTTERHILL HOMES HAS COMPLETED THEIR WORK AND ANOTHER BUILDER IS COMPLETING THE COMMUNITY. CONTACT BILL AT 513-520-5305 FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION.

As you might expect, the real estate market downturn slowed the pace of development for this community, but they're back on track now! And by the way, you don't save any money by visiting and contracting new construction directly from the builder. Our fees are already included in the base price, whether you hire an agent or not, so why not have someone who is ONLY looking out for your best interest?

Walnut Creek in conveniently located near the SR48/48 Bypass & SR42 interchange, so you can access the road system in any direction you need to go, including commuting to Cincinnati or Dayton. Lebanon schools continue to be recognized for academic excellence (sports programs are good too!). Lebanon was selected one of five 2012 Best Hometowns by Ohio Magazine. Historic Downtown Lebanon is home to quite a few festivals and celebrations throughout the year, and Walnut Creek is close to the Warren County Fairgrounds (the annual fair is just around the corner). And while Walnut Creek is not a pool community, Lebanon is home of the world's largest YMCA, Countryside YMCA!

Potterhill Homes offers multiple floorplans for Walnut Creek with base prices starting from $150k, but expect to be in the $200's. Standards include 9 foot ceilings and two car garages. And one of the best appeals about Potterhill Homes is the curb appeal! There's a retro feel to these homes, with finishing touches you don't see in a typical tract home. Porches with columns, extra decorative wood trim, a Craftsman type feel to these homes.

John, Thanks for the endorsement! We've been in quite a few of these homes and Potterhill has some neat touches to their home. They're on the leading edge of Green technology locally.

Anita, Thanks! We try to be thorough with these community posts.

Thinking they can save money by dealing directly with the builder is probably the biggest misnomer buyers face today. But you dispelled that myth with this line...

And by the way, you don't save any money by visiting and contracting new construction directly from the builder. Our fees are already included in the base price, whether you hire an agent or not, so why not have someone who is ONLY looking out for your best interest?

Well done you guys!

Craig, We see that mistake mind over and over. There may be independent builders that will cut, but the major builders here don't cut for coming to them without us. It's built in to the overhead for the base price, so anyone going direct is just increasing the builder's profit margin and not having anyone advise them on whether they're paying too much and other things like GET YOUR OWN HOME INSPECTOR!!!

Bill and Liz - great consumer information on Walnut Creek Development in Lebanon OH (selected in the top five 2012 best hometowns!) . Like Craig says you make an excellent point why it doesn't behoove buyers to deal directly with the builder, but to hire the Bill/Liz real estate dream team who will look out for their client's best interest!

Christine, Craig was right on the money about that being a common myth. We get calls sometimes and it's apparent that as soon as they realize they're calling from one of our blog posts and that we're not the actual builder their tone changes and they're looking to bail. Funny, since we initially provided the information they wanted and found :)

I like how you put the information on using a broker, even if you are going directly to the builder, that it won't save you any money, and you will have someone watching your back!

Jennifer, I doubt there's a builder out there going to tell you to hire your own home inspector to check their work. How many posts have we seen by Active Rain home inspectors pointing out major deficiencies on new construction??

It's smart for buyers to use the assistance of a buyer's agent. It saves them thousands of dollars at no cost to them.

Tammie, And we've seen enough cases where the buyers have overpaid when they went solo. It's easy for a builder to establish values a bit out of whack with the rest of the area, and suddenly you're paying $125 a sq ft when comparable quality is selling for $100 elsewhere.
