With summer break quickly coming to an end, many families are getting ready to make a move before school starts back up. Many of these families have happily chosen Plum Creek in Kyle, TX as the new place to hang their hat!

As I drive around in my community, not only do I notice people moving INTO the neighborhood, but I also notice some of my neighbors preparing their houses to put them on the market. I've never seen so many garage sales in my life! As Plum Creek in Kyle, TX has become a sought-after community, I started to wonder, "Why would anyone want to leave this neighborhood?" The fact is, they aren't! They are simply moving within the neighborhood to find more appropriate housing. Many younger families continue to grow and need some more bedrooms! On the flip-side, with graduations having recently taken place, many families are becoming empty-nesters as the kids head to college - and consequently need less space. In fact, my next-door neighbor just moved down the street because she didn't need a 2-story house anymore!

There are currently 37 homes for sale in Plum Creek. This may seem like a lot of houses. However, not only are residents moving within the community, but there are many brand-new houses being built as the subdivision continues to be developed. At the time of this posting, these 37 homes have an average listing price of $171,197. The average size of these homes is 2043 sq ft. at an average price of $86.45 / sq. ft. This is up to $20 / sq. ft. less than many comparable houses in Austin! An additional 2 homes are currently under contract, with 1 of them taking back-up offers.

Year to date, 54 homes have sold in Plum Creek. With an average sale price of $161,167, sellers were seeing 98% of their asking price with an average list price of $164,292. (NOTE: These prices do not include closing costs, etc.) This boasted an average sales price of $88.87 / sq. ft. Homes remained on the market anywhere from 1 to 282 (rare) cumulative days for an average of 63 cumulative days on the market.

Undoubtedly, the most appealing attributes of Plum Creek are its amenities. I am going to borrow the old saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words."

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR CLIENTS AND AGENTS: As I was working on this post, I noticed many agents have posted other, non-Plum Creek homes in the Kyle, TX area with Plum Creek in the subdivision field of MLS. For example, homes are listed as, Subdivision at Plum Creek. Please be advised that these homes are NOT part of Plum Creek and do not have access to the features and amenities of the Plum Creek Community.

Agent Aaron @ 512-845-4204

Hello. My name is Agent Aaron Vaughn, and I am a real estate agent and REALTOR® here in the great state of Texas. I live near Austin TX, and work mostly around Austin, from San Marcos, TX to Georgetown, TX — anywhere that falls within the borders of the Austin Board of REALTORS® MLS.

With so many choices for you among real estate agents, sales agents in new-home communities, and homebuilders, why should you choose me, Agent Aaron?

I am glad you asked!

First of all — sales agents that work in model homes of new construction communities are NOT the same as a Buyers Agent. They work for the builder. There job is to make you think they work for YOU, but in reality, they work for the BUILDER. Many don't even have real estate licenses.

I, Agent Aaron, am not only a real estate agent and REALTOR®, I am a Buyers Agent — so I represent YOU, the client, in the process.

What are my specialized qualifications? How can I help YOU get what YOU want?

I have owned, fully or partly, three homebuilding companies in the past. My companies have built almost 1000 homes, so I understand the draw of new construction homes for homebuyers; I offer a very unusual level of expertise in the new-home construction process for my clients and potential clients.

Also, I am aware of the "insiders" specials that are featured by various builders and communities, so that means I can work even harder to get you a better deal.

Whether you are buying a "spec" new construction home, or a "presale" new construction home, I can really help you get through the process smoothly. Even if you plan on purchasing a custom home on a lot that you already own, I can consult with you about the process and expectation levels.

Now that I am a real estate agent, I get to work for YOU, the client. I am fully on the side of my clients.

Not only are my commissions paid by sellers (builders or owners) when you purchase a home in a new-home community, but I know the negotiation process for the purchase of a brand new home as well as anybody — I am confident of that. I have negotiated a quarter of a BILLION dollars in construction related contracts (with buyers, sellers, developers and vendors).

Think about it: Why not have that kind of experience and moxie on YOUR side when you buy a new-construction home in the Austin, TX area? It makes all the sense in the world.

I have studied most of the major builders here in Central Texas, and I have opinions about them that I am happy to share with clients who allow me to represent them. I also keep abreast of the builder-business news, and monitor the overall financial health of various publicly-traded homebuilders. I can share my opinions about these matters when I am on your team.

As a special incentive to new clients, I am offering assistance with your closing costs when you allow me to be your representative; call me, Agent Aaron, for details at 512-845-4204.

Avoid foreclosure | Kyle TX | Short Sales | Plum Creek Neighborhood | 2010 | Zip 78640

We're living in a world that has as much sustained financial instability as I think our country has ever experienced. While we've certainly had harder times in decades past, the length of time we've been in such a rut has got to be close to a record-breaker.

So, if you are like many other people who live in the Plum Creek Neighborhood in Kyle, TX, who are "upside down" in their single-family home — and you fear foreclosure is looming but don't know where to turn — there is hope.

I personally don't recommend paying too much attention to some of the solutions that sound too good to be true, because they probably are just that. Making the wrong decision can make it harder to avoid foreclosure.

But there are some real, helpful things that can be done, and many dire or hopeless situations have been turned around for the better. And the good news is, the state of Texas is a non-recourse state, so if we can get a lender to agree to take less money for your home then you owe, you will likely not have to pay the difference (between what you owe and what the bank takes as a payoff) back in the future.**

I am a Texas licensed real estate agent and a REALTOR(r) who is part of a team that has negotiated HUNDREDS of "short sales" with lenders. A short sale is best described as getting a lender to agree to take less than is owed on a mortgage note as payoff for the debt.

I offer people a free, no-obligation phone consultation to discuss the options available to help you avoid foreclosure — among them negotiating a short sale with your lender. Feel free to call me.

(** = It's important to realize that real estate agents are not attorneys or accountants, and the laws and statutes are changing all the time. Therefore, if you proceed with a short sale or any kind of pre-foreclosure system,consider consulting an attorney, accountant, or tax professional to discuss your own situation in detail.)
