Master Planned Communities

The first planned development traces back to a California developer named Simon Eisner, who was hired by the city of Scottsdale, Arizona in the 1960s to help develop a master plan for the area's anticipated population boom. The initial result was the master-planned community of McCormick Ranch, which was comprised of housing plats, office parks, recreational parks, and commercial centers.

The difference between a planned development and typical housing subdivision tends to be the number and type of amenities and conveniences offered. Subdivisions typically offer neighborhoods that cater to a general demographic, such as young couples with children, or older retirees. In these subdivisions, there may be a local park or community center, but there is no oversight of the amenities or associations with development outside of the subdivision. In contrast, planned developments tend to be larger, and typically come with members-only perks like recreational lakes, golf courses, community pools, parks, and hiking or jogging trails.

While subdivisions tend to be built near commercial shopping or business areas, (or are built under the assumption that such businesses will spring-up once the subdivision becomes populated), a planned neighborhood includes retail and corporate areas into their original plans, and works with developers to ensure that these commercials centers are constructed simultaneously with the housing.

Many subdivisions have a cookie-cutter feel to them because every house is similar, or, in some cases, identical. Master-planned communities, on the other hand, have adopted the strategy of having several developers work together on a community, so that buyers have a variety of housing styles to choose from.

All of the foresight and planning that go ฝากขายที่ดิน into these planned has made them sought-after neighborhoods that prospective home buyers have embraced. In Phoenix, for example, it's estimated that 75 percent of resold homes are in master-planned communities. Moreover, it is also estimated that over 80 percent of new home construction permits issued by Phoenix area building departments were issued for homes in planned developments, reflecting the popularity of these developments for both builders and buyers alike.

Interestingly, this popularity has existed since early in America's history, when these communities were actually quite common. Settlements such as Jamestown and St. Augustine were both master-planned communities that eventually became important settlements. While we are no longer colonizing the continent, master-planned communities have become a way for homeowners to get the most for their money in terms of amenities, quality of living, and future resale value.
