It will be interesting to see how they sell now that the interest rates are up and inflations concerns continue. FYI....they are laying infrastructure way down at the intersection of Marsh Bend and Hwy470 so the dream continues.....
The comment about the patio villas is interesting to me as we live in a patio villa in Hawkins (also near the turnpike) and we have not met one neighbor in our neiborhood yet who is a renter. We do have a couple who are snowbirds but most we have met are owners/full time residents. Where did this info come from?
