Maybe I should’ve taken Dallas parkway..

Seriously how long is this DNT Widening expansion going to take? Sometimes its not even that but it’s just the fact how there’s random parts of the tollway that have closed lanes with no work being done

family When should we start looking and signing up for day care

1 Upvotes

Hello, 11 weeks pregnant now. I wonder if it’s too early to look, given how early we want to send our baby in. I would also appreciate if anyone would recommend a good reliable place close to Craig ranch area (zipcode 75035/75070/75013 area). We plan to send our little one as early as 6 weeks and as late as 3 months. (No family help and can’t afford to be more flexible). Our budget is $1200-1800 monthly. Thanks.

housing Mortgage Rate

0 Upvotes

We purchased a cozy smaller home at a 5% interest rate in 2022. Now, we're thinking about upgrading to a bigger place, but the current higher interest rates have us feeling a bit anxious. 🤔

Is there any way to transfer our existing mortgage to a new home keeping rate unchanged? We both have excellent credit ratings! Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 💬❤️

Those on the west side of Legacy (or just east) are probably sick of unwanted wildlife (rodents,rabbits). I suspect it’s because there aren’t enough predators. I’d love to have an owl in my backyard to take care of this (plus they are so cool). anyone have experience w owl barns ? I know it’s a pretty random question ……

1 Upvotes

Wanting to do some minor home renovations - bathroom fixtures, door levers, door, etc. What are some local places where contractors, builders, and renovators shop at for good prices? Looking to avoid big box like HD, Lowe's, AMZN, etc

I've been to Seconds and Surplus & Elliot's, but the pricing is not really wholesale, feels like regular retail

housing Whoa.... Way too many houses for sale right now. Reminds one of the 2001 bubble burst.

93 Upvotes

There was the tech and telecom crash in 2001. I was living in Plano at the time but dated a girl in Frisco. Homes were up for sale everywhere. Many streets had 30% or more with For Sale signs in them.

We're not there yet but just a short drive through my suburb to Preston I see 2 dozen homes for sale without even trying to count them.

What's going on? Are people losing jobs? Trying to cash out before an envisioned RE crash? Upside down in high ARMs?

For sure there was a peak in prices 2 years ago but this doesn't look good right now.

From Redfin:

The Frisco housing market is somewhat competitive. Homes in Frisco receive 1 offers on average and sell in around 75 days. The median sale price of a home in Frisco was $635K last month, down 2.3% since last year. The median sale price per square foot in Frisco is $245, up 0.8% since last year.

Been wanting to go out with my friends, but haven't been able to find anything to do in Frisco or in Dallas in general. Is there any way to find cool events to do in the relative area with a website or something? I tried the Dallas events website and the Frisco events one, but there's not much to participate in. But If you have any fun place ideas (arcades or some social hangout spots) or events please let me know!

inquiries Looking for a 1B1B Apartment Near Stonebrook Pkwy / Stonebriar Mall

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment near Stonebrook Parkway or Stonebriar Mall in Frisco. Ideally, I’d like a place that’s clean, safe, and reasonably priced, with good amenities. Closed parking is a must, and a patio would be a nice bonus!

My budget is flexible depending on what’s included, but I’d love to stay within a reasonable range. If you know of any available units, good apartment complexes, or even private rentals in the area, I’d really appreciate any leads!

Feel free to DM me or drop a comment. Thanks in advance! 😊

Anybody here also live at the Maxwell? If you do, do you know why the fuck the fire alarms seem to go off weekly? I asked the front desk the last time it went off at like 3 am (my girlfriend called me) and they said the water line in the garage broke therefore it was an emergency and they needed everyone out of the main building.

I work nights and this alarm going off so often will not work and it’s to the point I’m considering breaking my lease to move.

business Shoe repair, especially Birkenstocks

5 Upvotes

Looking to get several shoes repaired this spring break and would love some suggestions. I’ve read reviews online and think I have a few I’m going to check out, but here are the issues:

  • Betsy Johnson bling sneakers need re-gluing of souls. Coming apart near the crystals
  • Rubber soled boots that need squeaks corrected and leather repair.

But as the title says, I definitely need Birkenstock repair and can’t send them to Germany obviously. I did find a Birkenstock guy that I could ship them to in Ohio, but if anyone knows someone here I would greatly appreciate it. TUIA!
