Tis The Season

Tracy Lee Parker, Broker: Real Estate Agent in Wylie, TX

Tis The Season

Today my pastor took us straight into the Holiday Season! In my opinion this is the day that the season should officially start and not before Halloween as some retailers are doing! That really irks me to hear Christmas music so early. To me ,it just makes those retailers seem greedy!

Anyway, pastor talked about the feel good colors of the season red and green, but in reality most people are blue and gray trying to bring back nostalgia of what Christmas used to mean or how yesterday was better than today. Most people are trying to create a Christmas they remember from childhood. This sets us up for disappointment and can keep us from what God has in store for us now...in the present!

He read Psalm 131 which talks about weaning yourself, or rather trusting God to take care of us like a weaned child. Trusting Him to take care of matters that are too big for us.

Trust God to take care of you this season. Stop trying to create a past Christmas and let God show you what he has in store for you now.....enjoy the red and green!

Sachse Texas November 2011 New Construction Market Report

Tracy Lee Parker, Broker: Real Estate Agent in Wylie, TX

Sachse, Texas November 2011 New Construction Market Report

Here is a little history about Sachse, Texas:

William Sachse put his stamp on the rolling prairie of North Texas. This young man from Prussia arrived in the Texas countryside in 1845 and quickly began acquiring land. He established cotton mills, gins and, in 1886, gave some of his land to the railroad. The town was named for him.

I know when someone is not from here by the way they pronounce Sachse. It has a distinct sound and if you say it wrong, I know this is my chance to educate you on the area!

William Sachse's rolling prairie now sits 20 miles northeast of downtown Dallas on Highway 78 and squarely in the path of explosive growth! Sachse is 3 miles north of Highway 190, which provides quick access to Plano, Richardson, Garland, North Dallas and Central Expressway. This also means Sachse is 3 miles from Firewheel Mall. To me this means I don't have to drive to Plano to the movies, to shop or find a good restaurant! They are all close by now !

Many new residents are discovering Sachse. The population has boomed accordingly!

The housing market is racing to keep up. As you might imagine, there is lots of new construction with starter homes, gated communities and apartments.

New Construction Builders include, but aren't limited to:

Grand Homes, Plantation Homes, Megatel Homes, First Texas Homes, Paul Taylor and Highland Homes. Click for more pictures ...

There are 18 New Construction Homes on the Multiple Listing Service with the above builders.

They range from 1800 square feet to 4700 square feet. Pricing is from low $200's to high $300's.

Sachse is served by two school systems:

Garland and Wylie Independent School Districts. Students living in Dallas County attend Garland's schools and those in Collin County attend Wylie schools. The Garland schools are unique in that they don't place students through attendance zones. Rather, parents choose which campus their child should attend.

Sachse is a growing community well placed to take advantage of surrounding cultural amenities while offering a few of its own. Each fall brings the Sachse Fallfest, an event that attracts thousands to its arts and crafts country fair. Sachse also boasts the 18-hole Woodbridge Golf Course, home of the North Texas chapter of the PGA of America.

Many churches are in Sachse like Northplace Church. Northplace has purchased land on the I90 Corridor to build a new building which is still in the Sachse city limits. They love this town so much they decided to grow with the town!

If you haven't ventured out to 78N past I90 and the Firewheel Mall, drive out and see the booming little town pronounced SACK-SEE !!
