I'm not going to suggest one builder over another. Each has their own niche geared toward a particular set of buyers. Buyers with limited income, large families and a desire to live in an upscale neighborhood with outstanding schools have different priorities than a middle-aged buyer who wants top level quality in a home, but is not too concerned with size. Each of these buyers might want to spend $250,000 on their home.
The family oriented buyer might find an ideal home in northwest San Antonio. It has 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, and 2,600 square feet of living space. The home is solidly constructed, but it doesn't have a lot of frills. The counter tops are formica, baseboards are bare minimum, built-in appliances are from the lower price range, and the exterior of the home is mostly constructed with a very durable synthetic material.
The middle-aged affluent buyer finds a home in the same area of San Antonio. His home is in a gated community, on a slightly larger lot, has a four-side brick exterior and 1,800 square feet of living space This buyer has gone to the builder's design center and selected corian-top counters, hardwood flooring, and upgrade appliances, whirlpool tub, a fireplace for his new San Antonio, TX home.
Each of these buyers is pleased with their selection. Their needs have been met and they are living in an environment that suits their individual needs.
The bottom line is, when someone asks me which builder is best and which areas are the most desireable I immediately ask them to define their needs. Not surprisingly, the best builder and the best location is different for each potential San Antonio homeowner.
