Top 5 New Construction Deals in Manvel TX | 4 Bedroom Homes Under $450K

[0:00]All right, this week I've got five different four bedroom deals in Manville, and they all stand out for different reasons. One has a 3.99% fixed interest rate in Meridiana, one gives you 2,685 square feet in Pomona, one has a three-car garage, and one has a 2.99% interest rate 2-1 buy down. These are not in any best to worst order, they're just five strong deals that each stand out in a different way, depending on what matters to you most. Now, a quick note before we jump in, these are builder advertised baseline deals before I negotiate for a better deal and before I add my own incentives on top. So if you're thinking about a new construction home anywhere in Houston, text me before you commit, or it will be too late for you to get a really great deal that I can get for you. Deals that even beat these. Now let's get into our top five. The first home this week is Perry Holmes in Meridiana, priced at 389.990. It has four bedrooms, three baths, two-car garage, and 1,878 square feet. We like Perry Holmes, in fact, our home is a Perry home. The big thing that jumps out right away with this one is that it's a 3.99% fixed interest rate, and that's a big deal because it's a real fixed rate, not just a marketing ploy like some builders do. Then on top of that, you're also getting the refrigerator, washer, and dryer included. So we have a strong deal already, but the other big reason it really stands out is because it's in Meridiana itself. Meridiana is one of those communities where the lifestyle is a huge part of the value. You've got multiple pools, including a wave pool, a lazy river, fitness centers, food truck park, onsite cafe, amphitheater, mini golf, pickle ball, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, over 50 miles of trails, and so much more. It really does have that living at a resort type feel. So if you want a strong fixed rate, included appliances and one of the best amenity communities anywhere in the entire Houston area, this is one that's absolutely worth your attention. Deal number two, this next home deal is a Saratoga home in Foxtail Palms priced at 399.900. It has four bedrooms, three baths, a three-car garage, and 1,714 square feet. What is probably going to stand out here is that it's a three-car garage because that matters a lot to some people, and not many homes in this price range in this area are offering that. This one also comes with a 4.99% fixed interest rate and 7,500 towards closing cost, plus the refrigerator, washer, and dryer are also included. So from a financing and included item standpoint, it checks some really solid boxes. Now, this is not the one that wins on big flashy amenities because the only amenity here is walking trails. So if you want the huge resort style master plan community, this may not fit your first choice. But if you care more about location, incentives, practical value and that three-car garage, then this one would make a lot of sense because it'd be the best deal with those things in this area. This is one of those deals that may not be for everybody, but for the right person, it could be the right fit. So on to deal number three is a David Weekley home in Pomona, priced at 410,000. It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a two-car garage, and 2,685 square feet. The first thing that jumps out here is the size because 2,685 square feet at this price in Pomona is going to get a lot of people's attention. Then you add the incentive, which is 4.99% fixed, plus $10,000 flex money on top of that. That could be towards closing cost, upgrades, lowering the rate more and a number of things. And that's really strong because flex money gives you the options and can help you shape the deal in a way that fits your situation. On top of that, you're getting upgraded finishes in the home, which also helps the value. And then, of course, there's the Pomona part. Pomona has a lot to offer from a lifestyle standpoint, including the resort style pool, fitness center, fishing lake, kayaking, trails, parks, dog parks, sport courts, and all kinds of community events. So if you want a larger home, a strong location and a really good master plan community, this one is definitely a serious option. In fact, it probably would be my top pick in this list. But they're all strong for different reasons. So let me say this real quick before I keep going. This is exactly why I always tell people it's best to text me before you visit a builder because the deal you see online or in the sales office is not always the full deal. If you want to understand the process, avoid costly mistakes and put yourself in a position to get a better deal, then that conversation needs to happen before you start talking to builder reps and builder agents. If you already visited some, we can still get it done, it just becomes a little harder, but there's a lot more we can get you then what you'll ever see walking just through the door. So deal number four is a Coventry home in Pomona. Again, we're in Pomona. This one's priced at 424.990. It has four bedrooms, three baths, a two-car garage, 2,119 square feet. What makes this one stand out is the interest rate because this one is offering a 2.99% 2-1 buy down. Now this is where you really need to understand the process. A 2.99% 2-1 buy down can absolutely help on the front end, but it is not the same as a long-term fixed rate. The rate will go up to 3.99% the second year and then full market rate in years three through 30, whatever the market rate is at that time when you get into the third year. Of course, you can refinance at any time and how the rate goes up like that doesn't make it bad.
