Overlook Estates in Oak Hill Austin, TX (parade of homes 2012)

I too have noticed this development and decided to drive out there to see what it was all about as well a do a little research and this is what I found out: It appears to be a new development where the parade of homes will be hosted this year. Those developers must have paid them big for that because the drive in and around the neighborhood was surround by trailer parks, mobile homes, abandoned buildings and tons of properties that serve as a resident as well as a business. As a mater of fact this land use to be a trailer park and the developers kicked them out. I think it is neat to for those to have their home as their business but as a neighbor I would be nervous about the extra traffic from both delivery trucks and the workers a business brings about.

While searching online I noticed the real estate companies keep talking about the areas private schools so it got me to thinking and wondering why? I decided to search on the Texas Sex Offenders site just to see what I would find and the site showed11 registered sex offenders within a 3-mile radius (see link below). YIKES!!!

Not sure who would spend this kind of money in on a house in this area especially when most houses around are between $150,000-$250,000 and that is with acreage.
