Trading up into Ridgecrest

Selling your first home and buying the next with one timeline, so you're never stuck in between.

Trading up in Ridgecrest

Trading up in Ridgecrest is the move this neighborhood is built for. The buyer here is usually a move-up buyer who wants more room and a newer home, but not a brand-new one, in a neighborhood that's already established. Offices, game rooms and media rooms are standard in most homes.

Two moves, one plan

I build one timeline for selling your current home and buying here. Your current home gets three pricing strategies, a staging consultation, professional and drone photos, a listing video, Coming Soon before launch and ads targeting the local market around the listing. I negotiate both deals. See trading up.

Why Ridgecrest

Front-entry garages and a social committee that stays busy around the holidays make it easy to get to know people. The land has some roll to it. The schools are McClure, Cockrill and McKinney North, and US 380 is close. You give up builder incentives and some energy efficiency. Compare Stonebridge Ranch for bigger trees and a wider range.
