FAQs

What do you mean by "luxury downsizing?"

As family needs change and children are finally out of the house, empty nesters and individuals find themselves with a house that no longer fits their lifestyle. Bedrooms go unused except for a few days out of the year, swimming pools and large wooded lots become a burden to maintain and whole second stories sit empty. 

 

It's wasted dollars on utility bills and maintenance especially at a time near retirement. 

 

We've been building homes for over 50 years and we kept hearing the same thing from the empty nest community - We want a home that fits this new season of life without having to sacrifice the luxury of our current home. So, we designed a neighborhood and community for the active adult lifestyle in mind. ALL one story floor plans, homes built to maximize square feet, our signature flex rooms that allow for multi-function areas, a focus on outdoor spaces as continued living spaces, minimal lawn upkeep and energy efficient building practices to name a few of the features that better fit this important season of life. 

​

Can you build styles into a house?  For example: french country, modern, southwest, traditional, etc.

Absolutely. All of our homes are built custom - not one home is like the other! Visit our gallery to see more.

​

​Are your homes considered patio homes / garden homes?

By some definitions, yes, but they're so much more! Our homes are built much like a patio home or garden home with minimal upkeep and smaller lots, however they are individual homes and do NOT share a wall with your neighbor as some patio homes do. Instead, our neighborhood is carefully planned to have alternating houses with one house having large open windows on one side and frosted glass and high windows on the other. This, along with brick fences or rod iron fences, ensures privacy for both your home and your lot.

 

How much are the HOA fees? And what do they include?

Our residents are often surprised with how little they pay in HOA dues compared to other neighborhoods. As of 2020, HOA dues are $125/mo and include front lawn maintenance, upkeep to neighborhood entrances, gates, walking trails, community areas, our future clubhouse and more.

 

Can I have pets?

Absolutely!

How are Rabbit Run & Rabbit Ridge different from any other neighborhood in Tulsa / Broken Arrow / Edmond?

We specifically design communities with the active adult in mind - ALL single story homes, minimal lot maintenance, gated entrance, walking paths and more. Our homes are for those wanting to downsize and enjoy the freedoms that this stage of life allows, however we do NOT have 55 plus restrictions. This means that our residents have complete flexibility with the future of their home.

​

I'm ready! What's the process to start building?

We know building can be a headache, so we try to make the process as painless as possible. First, you choose your lot and put down a fully refundable $5,000 deposit in escrow. Next, you work with our owners, architects and designers to design and price your custom home. At the end of this process, if you’re satisfied with your design and pricing, we move forward - your deposit is released, you put money down for your lot and we sign a construction contract. However, if for some reason you’re not satisfied or if your plans have changed, your deposit will be returned to you. Finally, you work with our interior designer for your selection process and we start building!
