      - Does the River Oaks builders offer a 10+ year warranty on their homes they build? -- Need to know what you are buying or is it buyer beware ? (Prefer single family homes over multi family.), 06:33:13 08/11/18 Sat
        Re: Does the River Oaks builders offer a 10+ year warranty on their homes they build? (NT) -- The home builder doesn’t give a 10year warranty. That is purchased through a builders warranty company., 20:59:19 08/11/18 Sat

        Re: Multifamily is a nightmare???????? -- Have you driven through the apartment complex that was just built in Lake Worth?, 11:39:59 08/13/18 Mon
        Re: Multifamily is a nightmare???????? (NT) -- Yes but I think they are talking about small mix used areas with 4 to 8 apartments. So that would not apply would it., 06:27:24 08/16/18 Thu
- Re: Are we losing our community center? (NT) -- Need people that will take an invested interest in the city, Apartment people dont. Town House and Codo owners do have a vested interest., 18:12:27 08/22/18 Wed

        Re: All you need is MONEY. $$$$$$$$ (NT) -- That would be a start, 19:25:44 08/22/18 Wed
        Re: All you need is MONEY. $$$$$$$$ -- No one has ever said they wanted a large apartment complex-, 06:32:08 08/23/18 Thu
        What is your description of Large ? (NT) -- Number of multi-family units ?, 09:42:50 08/23/18 Thu

        Re: How much land do they need for 20 units ? Is this for duplex and quadplex ? (NT) -- Did anyone miss something ?, 12:11:04 08/24/18 Fri
        quadplex ? (NT) -- Where are they going to be ? (Butler Housing - 300+ people need homes now !), 17:41:38 09/01/18 Sat
        Re: quadplex ? (NT) -- Not a quadplex but it should be mixed living tax dollars!!!, 05:44:31 09/02/18 Sun
        Re: quadplex ? -- Where are the Butler Housing people going? (Mixed Use, I don't get Tax Dollars), 10:20:17 09/02/18 Sun
        Re: quadplex ? (NT) -- City sales tax: Mixed use we get more potential tax dollars per sq. foot of land. You get property tax for building, sales tax for business, and the tax dollars the folk’s living there will pay spending their money in the city., 05:16:34 09/03/18 Mon
        Re: quadplex ? (NT) -- More people living in River Oaks will build density, which will lead to more commercial, enterprises wanting to come into our city, which brings in tax dollars, 09:37:31 09/03/18 Mon
        I guess you can say ' Bye - Bye ' to our Oak trees for density. (NT) -- River Oaks has alot to lose with density (Enjoy the precious Oaks while they stand), 11:02:41 09/03/18 Mon
