I’m sold on Highland Home builder core values, principles & sales staff I became sold on Highland Home Builder this year when I introduced my clients to Larry Carter sales-person for Travisso Neighborhood in Leander TX. While working with Larry & Amy getting to know Highland Homes and their core values, principles and story I became a fan. Larry and Amy went beyond customer service helping our very picky clients who after securing a lot decided not to move forward building in Travisso. But it’s a happy ending because Larry recommended Parkside at Mayfield Ranch and said to speak with Rachea sales representative. Rachea is wonderful just like Larry and Amy easy to work with making our clients feel they made the right choice. Sunday they secured a lot to build their future home. So why am...

Buyers ask should I get a pre-drywall inspection, my response, yes! I highly recommend buyers not be afraid of offending their builder when hiring an inspector; any reputable builder will have no problem and often mention it during the initial contract signing. This is a great opportunity to have a third party licensed inspector check for problems, and mistakes before it’s too late. The home is framed and it’s time for drywall and my buyer asks should I get a pre-drywall inspection, my response is yes. Third party home inspections evaluate critical construction errors making sure the builder is using sound construction practices building buyers home.   What should inspector and buyers look for at the drywall inspection? Gaps in the framing, placement of can lights, electrical sockets an...

  Rugg Realty LLC, Now 3rd Largest Real Estate Broker in Sun City Texas I was crunching some numbers last week and stumbled on a statistic I hadn’t really been following.  Rugg Realty LLC, is now the 3rd largest real estate broker in Sun City Texas!  This is special since we opened up shop just a little more than four years ago.  The reason I say were weren’t following this, is that our focus has always been on being the best real estate broker in Sun City Texas, and knew that market share would take care of itself.  Apparently, our clients have agreed and we thank them.   Way back in July of 2010, I wrote one of my very first blog posts titled, "What would you do if you had to start over in real estate this morning?"  and Active Featured that post.  I received a lot of advice from Acti...

  Lake Cowan Now Complete In Sun City Texas   What started life as a fishing pond with all the simulated places for fish to thrive is back in operation.  It took several attempts to keep the pond from leaking, but this time they got it right.   This is one of the most engineered ponds ever, with a layer of Bentonite clay, layer of sand, a full pond liner, and a concrete retaining wall around the perimeter to stabilize it all.     Even with Storm clouds on the horizon, Lake Cowan is a great place with long-range vistas adding beauty to Sun City Texas and the surrounding real estate.                                                                                        If you ever wondered about living in Sun City Texas and want to know more about homes for sale in Sun City Texas and the ...
