Question: Do the HOA fees include lawn care? Also will this community have Fiber Optic Internet throughout ?

Yes they include lawn care in the HOA fees. I’ll have to check on fiber optic, but I would suspect yes, from Frontier.

Hey Mark, looking at the average days on market at 71, last June '23 it was 82 days. If you look back at June 2022 and June 2019, is this seasonal? Less days in the winter when the snowbirds are down. Just a thought.

Good for you to mention the race tracks. I've been following for awhile now the status of that area and folks need to realize if they build anywhere near the tracks there are deed restrictions in place about not being able to complain about sound levels from the established tracks. It was a big discussion with the zoning commission before allowing the delevopers in that area. And as you mention, it can get loud (nitro methane drag cars make a lot of sound).
