[quote=PKMAN]SDEngineer – welcome to the neighborhood. I’m very glad that the final phase of townhouses will be built. My Stoney Creek Plan 2 is just a couple of houses away from the final phase, close to the second entry. I had feared that they would abandon or postphone the final phase, making the site a wasteland indefinitely.
I didn’t know that the new Plan 6 would be bigger with bigger Master and separate tub/shower. We probably would still go with the house, but the decision would’ve been much tougher to make. We’re closing escrow on the 24th and have been going to the site quite frequently to check on progress. Yes, I did notice quite a bit of traffic every time we went there. Poor Brooke, as she’s the only staff remaining, but she’s great.
Looks like all of us at Pigg buying (or interested in buying) at Riverwalk are cautious, sensible and with every intention to live there for a very long time. Riverwalk will be great community.[/quote]
Thanks PKMAN – might have to have a ex-RE Bear Pigg get to know your neighbor bbq it seems like.
Yeah, Brooke was busy – we’ve been there 4 times in the past two months (looking at the SFR’s originally, then the townhomes later once we x’d the remaining SFR’s as just a little too small in the main living area for us). Every time we were there unscheduled she was in the office doing a contract with someone. We had to actually schedule a time to meet with her this last weekend to do the walkthrough of the under-construction units (which is when we found out about the expanded plan 6), and even then we were shoe-horned in between two more contracts (when we came in she was just finishing one, and once we got back from the construction, the next folks were in the office ready to sign their contract – unfortunately for us, the folks that were in the office as we got back were there to sign their contract for the last plan 6 overlooking the new greenbelt, which otherwise would have been our first choice of location, c’est la vie).
We were never the only folks doing the model walk throughs any of the times we were there either – traffic is much heavier than it was last year, and it seems they’ve hit a “happy point” with the current price points, incentives, and government tax rebates and are now doing brisk business.
I suspect there may be a few cancellations down the road though, as I don’t expect that the 10K CA tax credit will last through the summer (since it’s capped at about 10,000 properties with it’s $100M funding cap), and there may be a few people to whom that was a deciding factor. It wasn’t to us, and I’m guessing there’s slightly less than a 50/50 shot of it still being there when we close. Should be a nice unexpected bonus for you though.
