In this episode of Jim Sells the Suncoast, Jim speaks with James Phillips from KB Home, spotlighting the new Creekside community in Parrish, Florida. Learn why this development stands out for first-time buyers, retirees, and anyone seeking a personalized home without the extra fees.
Key Highlights
- Location & Lifestyle
- Quiet Yet Connected: Tucked just off 675 in Parrish, offering an “off-the-grid” feel while being roughly 30–45 minutes from Tampa, Sarasota, and local beaches.
- Natural Setting: The community preserves open spaces, including a linear park ideal for walking, play, and outdoor relaxation.
- Home Options & Pricing
- Single-Family Floor Plans: Sizes range from a 3-bedroom (1,541 sq. ft.) to a 6-bedroom (3,100+ sq. ft.), starting in the mid $300Ks up to the mid-to-high $400Ks.
- Personalization: Buyers can choose structural upgrades (e.g., covered lanais, extended ceilings) and visit KB’s design center to select finishes—from flooring to countertops.
- No CDD & Low HOA
- Monthly Fees: HOA is only $80/month, covering common-area landscaping and upkeep.
- Future Amenities: Phase 2 plans include a pool and clubhouse, yet HOA costs are expected to remain low.
- Build Timeline & Customization
- Estimated 6–9 Months: From contract to move-in, including a month for permitting and 5–7 months of build time.
- Choose Your Lot & Plan: Larger parcels can accommodate pools, and every homesite supports any floor plan with minimal restrictions.
- Warranty & Support
- 1-2-10 Warranty: Covers materials/workmanship for the first year, systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) for two years, and structural defects for ten.
- Lender Integration: KBHS offers various loan types (VA, FHA, conventional, and more) plus credit repair programs if needed.
