Esperanza is the only builder in the development unless you purchase a lot in the gated community of Estancia. From unfortunate experience, Esperanza Homes are very poor quality. Workmanahip is very poor and the 1 year home warranty is a joke. Also, be aware the sales agents that work directly for Esperanza Homes will out right lie to your face to make a sale. These sales agents don't hold a realtor license so they're not held to any ethics besides Esperanza which has absolutely none. PID tax is .25% not .20%. Definitely try to talk to a current resident that lived in the Tres Lagos Community prior to signing any contract to build.
I worked in McAllen for 2 years coming from Miami and I'm wondering who can afford this neighborhood when most of the jobs there offer piss poor pay. This must be for people that are moving there WITH money already because the job market is pretty weak.
The worst part is having to listen to your neighbor's dogs, especially when you go to sleep. That's why I got my house in the boondocks. I actually live very near the tres lagos, but no in it, and when I am walking around my land, I can hear their dogs from the distance.
Moved here in 2021 from the left coast 🤣. Zero crime, family oriented, friendly and hard working patriotic people. My guess is 80% Hispanic, 15% white, just a few Asian, Indian and Black families. Lotsa border patrol, city cops, state cops, county sheriffs, etc. Esperanza is not a bad builder, I've seen far worse. All the homes are on a slab and are sealed up tight like a drum(energy efficient). Gigabit community internet with basic cable 80 bucks a month. Great for remote workers! FYI: currently living in a new 4 bed/3 bath 1700 square feet. Mortgage with taxes, HOA fee, and insurance 2100 per month(rates have risen). Utilities: gas 40 bucks, water 40 bucks, re-usable water(lawn) and trash 50 bucks, electric 110 bucks, and internet/cable 80 bucks. Gas and food are dirt cheap also compared to rest of the country. Unleaded is 2.89 at Walmart right now McAllen and the RGV in general are boomtowns. They are literally building everywhere. There is one mall and it is packed, no empty store fronts, anchor stores being Macy's, Dillards and JCPenney. Great for retirees because it's a hop across the border for super cheap dental and medical. FYI: I don't speak a lick of Spanish, never had an issue.
Hello there, the beginning of the video u show is not Tres lagos, it's los lagos that has a golf course. An you still showing los lagos golf course in edinburg tx. Before you do videos check on what you showing.
Ants 😂, there’s not much wide life over by tres Lagos,but in other neighborhoods you can get,snakes bugs,termites, birds butterflies the regular kinds of things unless you move to the country side where you get deer or other animals and such
There is a 500 HOA fee at the time of purchase but nothing after that. This is because it has a PID, property improvement district which is an added tax. In Tres Lagos, you get the pool, park, gym and other perks but they are paid through the PID and not the HOA.
Thank you for your comment and yes, Tres Lagos is far from Costco. However, its only minutes from Sam's Club! Not to mention all of the shops and restaurants near Sam's. Its my favorite area, 10th and Trenton.

That is also why its a great idea to have a licensed REALTOR® representing you when you work with Esperanza or any other builder.
I have lived in tres Lagos since 5 years. Other suburbs like this near McAllen are Sharyland Plantation and Los Lagos.
Yes, I really like Los Lagos for the location. I am working on a video for Los Lagos.
What do you like best about Tres Lagos?
@@LivinginMcAllenTX I enjoy the community pool and the food trucks. We don’t really walk around tres Lagos but when we do, we go to the food trucks.
There are a lot of different birds here and maybe the occasional squirrel. Nothing big like deer.

There are a lot of locals buying houses......
I never understood the appeal of living in crowded subdivisions with neighbors crowded next to each other, zero privacy, HOAs, overpriced. Hell no!
I understand. That being said, I have had clients who just love having a community all around them.

I recently heard you can kayak there at Tres Lagos!

Thanks for that reply! That is my feeling in a nutshell.

Way too far away from the expressway.
I do get that.
Yep, too many lights to go through.
About 10min drive, from Monte Cristo. With all the construction on the expressway, I have been avoiding it anyway.
Hi, what is the HOA cost
There is a 500 HOA fee at the time of purchase but nothing after that. This is because it has a PID, property improvement district which is an added tax. In Tres Lagos, you get the pool, park, gym and other perks but they are paid through the PID and not the HOA.
Too far from Costco and everything else 😂. Might as well live in Harlingen.
Thank you for your comment and yes, Tres Lagos is far from Costco. However, its only minutes from Sam's Club! Not to mention all of the shops and restaurants near Sam's. Its my favorite area, 10th and Trenton.
Does Tres Logos have any RV Port homes?
I will verify, but I didn't see anything like that at all. There are other neighborhoods that do, but not in Tres Lagos
They don’t,but the builder Esperanza Homes do build them throughout and you can get a custom built home if not that houses it in the neighborhood too
