Johnson Development Continues ‘Best of the ‘Burbs’ Tour

Johnson Development is continuing the “Best of the ‘Burbs” home tour this month, with more than 120 model homes open throughout Houston. Visitors also have the chance to pick up a scratch-off ticket and possibly win $100,000.

Johnson Development’s “Best of the ‘Burbs” home tour continues into May, opening the doors to more than 120 models throughout Houston — including more than 30 in the west Houston area.

Homes are open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays and noon to 6 p.m. Sundays. Admission is free. In addition to touring model homes filled with the latest design trends, eventgoers can also register to receive a scratch-off ticket for the chance to win $100,000 (one registration per model per family each day). Those preferring to tour virtually can do so at www.HoustonHomeTour.com.

“We’ve added in this second month because interest in new homes is so strong right now,” said Christen Johnson, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Johnson Development. “For the year, new-home sales are up 66.8 percent nationwide, and we’re certainly seeing similar demand at our communities. Having the home tour open two months accommodates social distancing and gives prospective buyers the opportunity to meet with a sales representative one-on-one.”

The three west Houston communities include Cross Creek Ranch, Jordan Ranch and Willow Creek Farms.

One of the nation’s top-selling master-planned communities, Cross Creek Ranch is a 3,200-acre community in Fulshear, just minutes west of the Grand Parkway off of FM 1093. More than 20 model homes are available to tour, as well as dozens of available homes. Homes are priced from the $230,000s. Visit www.crosscreektexas.com for more information.

Jordan Ranch is a 1,350-acre project in Fulshear that is located one mile south of Interstate 10 and a few miles west of the Grand Parkway. Seven builders have nine models open for touring showcasing homes priced from the $250,000s. A number of inventory homes also will be open. Details are available at www.jordanranchtexas.com.

Willow Creek Farms is a 600-acre community just south of Interstate 10 and west of Katy in Brookshire. More than 1,150 families will call Willow Creek Farms home, enjoying trails, a full Olympic-size pool, recreation center, splash pad and Katy schools.
