Lucas Texas & Fairview Texas Subdivisions

 Collin County Texas real estate communities

  Served by Jeanie Elliott REALTORS, Since 1980

 

There are a lot of beautiful communities in the City of Lucas and the Town of Fairview, both in Collin County Texas.

Some are older, established with mature trees, and are less restricted on home construction or size requirements, and

have more flexible deed restrictions or are less restricted.  For the most part, these areas average acreage is larger per

home, and many allow horses, barns, and other smaller farm and ranch amenities.  The largest majority of these older

communities do not have homeowner dues or the dues are voluntary.  Often, there is a designated person that still

needs to review any home building plans, remodeling, or additions.  If there is not a homeowners association or

designated representative assigned for the area by the homeowners in that neighborhood,  you should have your plans

 reviewed by the designated department at the City of Lucas or Town of Fairview to assure they are up to their building

codes and minimum standards so construction will pass their building inspections which will be required before a

certificate of occupancy is given and a financial institution will make a home mortgage on the property.

 

Other communities developed in the last 5 to 7 years may resemble the newer communities and types of home plans

you may find in the larger cities of Allen, Plano, McKinney, and Frisco, and have more of a subdivision feel but still

offer the larger lots that are not normally found in these larger Collin County cities.  These newer subdivisions are

most likely to be more restricted for size and type of home construction, and are least likely to allow horses or other

mini-ranch and farm amenities that are desirable if you prefer to have horses.  In addition, many of these have active

homeowners associations and architectural review committees that have to approve all building and construction,

whether it is new building, remodeling, or additions to existing buildings.  In most cases, there are also homeowner

association dues that must be paid in addition to any home mortgage, property taxes, and homeowners insurance,

and are included in the lender's method of qualifying for a loan.

 

So, it is a good idea to decide what you want in your next home, if there are special requirements that you must have

to be satisfied with your choice, and then determine which communities will best serve your needs, plans, desires and

budget before making your choice.  This is where it is wise to use an experienced REALTOR in your home, estate lot,

or acreage purchase before you make a purchase and find out later it was the wrong location for what you wanted.

I have had home buyers tell me they just purchased a beautiful two-acre parcel in a quality Lucas neighborhood and

were real excited to finally be able to have a place for their family horses on their home's property, then I had to break

the news that the area they purchased in did not allow horses, even though it was a spacious two-acres and looked as

it was not going to be a problem.  Either they bought on their own or did not use an experienced broker or agent that

knew the area or knew them well enough to know that it was important in their decision.  That is another reason to

use an agent or broker that knows your needs, and is guiding you to find the best choice.  This will save you from

delays like the couple I just described, as they had to sell that property first before finding the "right property" that

met their needs and where the deed restrictions would allow their horses to be kept on their home property.

 

In today's market you need a quality broker/agent and one that has a lot of experience.  That's what you need the most,

quality and a lot of experience to make the best and most knowledgeable choice.   Jeanie Elliott of Jeanie Elliott Realtors,
