The tax rate does blow at most of the newer developments. 1.8% seems to be about average. Stellan Ridge is the lowest I’ve found at 1.05% but the prices of that development start at $870k (down from 1.1M). I like the Bridle Creek homes too but they have not budged on their prices yet (and 1.7% tax on these). I’ve given the sales rep a hard time on a couple of occasions but he insists they are not going top lower the prices. He’s freakin delusional, they have 3 homes from the last phase they’ve been trying to unload since January at $100k off. There’s also one bank repo the I know of in that tract. Those homes sit on min 1-acre lots so I expect them to fetch a premium over homes like the Centex ones. I’ll see how those homes are prices next winter after they’ve been sitting on them for 6 months.
