Living in Oak Creek

Oak Creek is new construction by Empire Communities: 86 homes on lots averaging about 0.4 acre, roughly 2,400 to over 5,000 square feet, with ranch and two-story plans.

It sits off Albemarle Road, minutes from NC 51, I-485 and downtown Mint Hill. A new home on a lot that size is a less common pairing among the new construction we cover, and the ranch plans add one-level living to the list.

Buying New in Oak Creek

Buying from a builder means the builder's sales staff work for the builder, the base price rarely includes everything in the model, and the contract is usually the builder's own. We represent you at the builder, add up the real finished price including the lot, review the contract with you, and recommend independent inspections before the drywall goes up and before closing. Some builders expect your agent to be with you or registered on your first visit. Buying new construction in Mint Hill covers the process.

With only 86 homes, lot choice matters. Size, position and what sits behind a lot all affect its value and its premium. If you already own in Oak Creek and are selling, the Seller Market Position Review compares your home with the builder's current homes as well as any resales. Selling your home in Mint Hill covers the rest.
