Forest Creek is a lovely master-planned golf course community located in east Round Rock, just minutes from Dell Computer. Having played the course a number of times with my friends, I can attest to both its beauty and its difficulty. Granted, I am not really a stellar golfer, but it is among the more challenging courses in this part of town.
Currently listed resale homes in Forest Creek range from under $200,000 all the way up to the mid-$500's.
Currently, there are 52 new and resale homes available on the MLS in Forest Creek, with an average asking price of $327,207. The average square footage for these homes is 3,224, for an average price per square foot of $100.87.

Hi Jason, Got your message. Thanks for reading my blog, as usual.
I love the way you are featuring the market reports for these different sections of your area. Austin and surrounding areas are so beautiful. If I didn't live in College Station, I'd live in Austin.

Everytime I read one of your blogs, it makes me want to move out there....I could live like royalty in a beautiful environment, and still be central to both coasts. I'm jealous buddy...really jealous!!! :)
