Michael’s Take Broker opinion, based on the sourced facts above
My take: Cypress Creek Lakes fits buyers who want an established neighborhood with real amenities rather than a construction zone. The first thing I would pin down is the phase, because it changes both the MUD rate and the HOA dues. Then I would spend real time on the flood maps and the seller's disclosure before talking price.
