Who doesn't love a light filled open layout with high ceilings, separate office/study, an amazing top of the line kitchen, opening to the family room.

Bad news for buyers trying to purchase their forever home or just a place to call home before prices becomes unachievable.

78726: Canyon Creek 2019 Home Sales ~ Year in Review - 01/05/20 02:02 PM

And the lists begin on the hottest real estate markets in 2020! Austin topped its first list according to Zillow Inc. when they named the Texas capital as the hottest housing market of the year. This was based on the results of a survey of 110 economists and real estate experts.
The Austin unemployment rate of 2.6% compared to 3.6% nationwide and an extremely low mortgage delinquency rate of .4% compared to the national value of 1.1% is just another reason to predict Austin will continue to outperform U.S. market expectations.
How does this phenomena affect home prices in Canyon Creek, a … (15 comments)

Home sales for Canyon Creek are in for October 2019.

78726: Taylor Morrision New Construction Home closed in Montebello - 11/10/19 11:22 AM
I'm so excited for my clients from NYC who just closed on their Taylor Morrision new construction home in the upscale Montebello Community! We went under contract to build their home January 2019 after the wife came to Austin to look at resale and new home construction in fourth quarter od 2018. She found me on the Internet after reading my post on Montebello (August of 2018) and was intrigued with the community.
As anticipated the build time and process went smoothly. I've always found Taylor Morrision builds an excellent home, pays attention to detail and delivers a good product. Thank you Kelly Gilbert for working closely with us since the … (10 comments)

My sellers are off to Utah with proceeds in hand to make a home purchase! The right buyer came along and fell in love with the peace and tranquility of their backyard sanctuary.
They knew buyers wanting elbow room would be attracted to this almost third of an acre on a quiet interior street backing to the greenbelt.

So happy for my buyers from CA who closed by mobile notary on their new home in Canyon Creek. This is the back yard that in another year will hold a pool and spa.
I helped their son and wife purchase a home in Canyon Creek last December and they are very excited to have their parents move into the community. Just the right distance away..... not right on top of each other.
 
My buyers currently are interviewing pool companies and tree companies in anticipation of their application to the Architectural board in Canyon Creek. Plans need be drawn to submit and they … (17 comments)

78726: Lucky to have dedicated members on our Canyon Creek HOA Board - 09/15/19 06:55 AM
We are so lucky to have an HOA Board that really gives their time and energy to making a difference in Canyon Creek!
Recently a new electrical circuit to the monument lights at the Canyon Creek pool/park entrance was bid and the usual electrical contractors cost came in at whopping $10,000. With the cost of the new amenity center, pool furniture, etc. this was a large bite to swallow. One of our Canyon Creek HOA board members, Mark Weaver is an engineer and licensed electrician. He took this on as a volunteer project with Dave Marshall (another CC HOA board member). They wrapped up the job and ran … (23 comments)

78726: Too Late! Under Contract in Canyon Creek ~ 9904 Lavera Drive - 08/28/19 05:44 AM
I love the right buyer came along and fell in love with this beautifully maintained single story on a quiet interior street in  Canyon Creek!
The buyers are a young couple just starting and reminiscent of the sellers when they purchased the home 10 years ago when first married and starting a family. 
The vaulted ceilings, wood floors and openness of the floor plan caught their eye. The windows opening to the park-like backyard and 50 foot green area was definitely a plus for them.
A visual of waking up in this lovely master bedroom overlooking the private backyard clinched the deal! Buyers are through inspections and negotiations on … (13 comments)
