Murrieta Neighborhoods | The Murrieta Ranchos
Neighborhood name: the Ranchos in Murrieta
Murrieta Ranchos is a community of close to 300 homes, with no HOA. This is a very in-demand neighborhood, in that, whatever the market is doing – up or down – these homes if priced correctly seem very in demand and sell quickly and at higher price points than other tract homes across the market.
Location: the Murrieta Ranchos are entered off of Washington Avenue less than a half mile from Murrieta Valley High School.
Gated? This community does not have gated entry.
No HOA - HOA is short for homeowners association, which has a governing body that enforces rules within a community, for example the color scheme and keeping homes maintained or painted regularly. Owners and occupants in a neighborhood can come to love or hate an HOA. Neighbors can love it when the HOA sends notices to a neighbor to fix something unsightly, but the homeowner who gets ticky tacky letters on minor issues to fix with a threat of a fine can start to get frustrated living in an HOA. Since the Murrieta neighborhood of the Ranchos does not have an HOA, that sends notices to homeowners and can levy fines for non-conforming situations like paint aging or being one of the colors allowed. Homeowners also have to get their neighbors to sign off on backyard improvements, solar, whatever project could impact their neighbors’ aesthetic.
Look & feel: This Murrieta neighborhood had several models built within it, but all are the single story, ranch style on large lots that give this community a unique look and feel different from any other neighborhood in Murrieta and Temecula.
Taxes? Taxes are in the low middle range, as we use 1.5% as a medium ballpark tax rate. In California, the tax on any home is 1% on the purchase price, with limits on how much it can adjust from the original purchase price, plus special assessments called Mello Roos imposed by the builder in response to the county during the building process. Some neighborhoods total 2% and over for the total taxes between those two kinds. This neighborhood is closer to the lower end in tax rate. You should know, taxes can vary block by block, so you’ll want to work with a realtor who gets the available information to you up front during the search process rather than later on when you’ve got a deal put together.
