Real Estate in Red Oak


This morning we woke up and all agreed that we wanted a smoke free environment for breakfast--so we headed down the road for the nearest IHOP in Waxahachie.
We then met a realtor who has been helping all of the church people find houses and locations to live.

We some some very nice houses--all of which were under $175,000. Homes here come with molding, painting, front yard land scape and alot of extra nicities. The houses are brick and stone and have brick mail boxes. One builder even offers bug control--pipes are built into the walls where an exterminator then blows his chemicals. Cost is $40 quarterly vs our bug company which we pay $75/month.

The nice thing about this area is that builders do not just build in their own tract. They will build on your land if you desire.

We inquired about the beautiful home that we visited yesterday on the lake--it was $400,000.

Even though it was warm we had thundershowers off and on through the day. Alijah was fearful so Bill told him it was just the clouds playing their drums. This was something Alijah could relate to since his dad plays the drums.

Kiersten and Nick had dinner so we took Alijah to a bar b que place and then back to the hotel for a bath and much needed rest.
