A FSBO just came up in Saratoga. It’s a 3 bedroom Plan 3 (the largest) for $1.175. It’s on a 10,000 sq ft lot but it does back up to Carmel Mountain. It would be a nice comp for the neighborhood if it sells for that.

I think Saratoga and Derby Hill have a big edge over Belmont and Lexington because of their newness. I’ve seen a lot of open houses in Belmont and Lexington and most of them looked tired already – even a few years makes a house dated compared to the new. I think newer sells for a higher premium than most people realize.

Derby Hill continues to sell and sell. There are only three houses available right now with 7/08 completion dates. The Plan 3 I was considering last week sold before I could make up my mind.

Anybody know if the house on Harvest Run closed and what price it closed for?

You are making me nervous! I’m in Derby Hill for the long haul but I hate to think that my housing value has gone down in the short time I’ve been there.

Did the house on Harvest Run close? I couldn’t find a closing price yet. The comp on Amberglades sold overnight for $1.125 and it didn’t have much going for it at all.

Derby Hill is substantially newer than Belmont and Lexington and I think that’s a big factor. I also disagree with the postings that the small garage on the Plan 1 don’t fit a car. Granted it doesn’t fit a big car but I am able to use it as well as the neighbors around me.

I appreciate your opinion.

I agree that the $1.299 is a bit ambitious but I think the Derby Hill house is worth at least $200K more than the Gaylemont comp. The busy road is a HUGE negative and Gaylemont had barely any landscaping, very average kitchen, and next to no upgrades. How do you get the closing prices on recent sales? The data I see is usually a couple of months lagged.

Just heard from a neighbor that they are listing their Foxhound Way Derby Hill Plan 1B (French Country style) in the next couple of weeks for $1.299. I guess the price makes sense since their landscaping is done (lots of flagstone in front and outdoor fireplace), they have some nice interior upgrades, nice lot (no hill behind but no view), and there is VERY little on the market in Carmel Country Highlands. I think it might be the 1st resale in Derby Hill. They just bought in Jan. 07 but are moving for “personal reasons”. I hope it sells for that! I think that would be a good comp for the rest of the neighborhood!
