    Trinity Falls is now ranked among the nation's 50 top-selling master-planned communities.

    It may never be more important than right now to support your local community, which is why Trinity Falls is launching Project Community, an initiative where they will donate $250 to one of four local nonprofits for each new home sold in the North Dallas neighborhood from February 1-June 30.

     

    Six builders offer new homes in this 2,000-acre master-planned community that's located near McKinney, with prices from the mid-$200,000s to the $700,000s.

     

    You can choose from Chesmar Homes, Coventry Homes, Del Webb (for buyers age 55 and up), Drees Custom Homes, Highland Homes, and Perry Homes. Trinity Falls will be home to approximately 5,000 families when complete.

     

    Residents are able to get their fill of fresh air at numerous onsite parks and playgrounds, including Old Joe Dog Park, and can easily walk or bike to B.B. Owen Park, offering 350 acres of wooded terrain, lakes for catch-and-release fishing, authentic nature trails, disc golf, and more.

     

    When you purchase your new home, you'll get the chance to designate which nonprofit receives the donation: The Boys & Girls Club of Collin County, Children’s Health Medical Center Foundation, Operation Kindness, or The Samaritan Inn.

     

    The Boys & Girls Clubs of Collin County offers programs and services to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. The organization's clubs serve youth in Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Princeton, and outlying areas.

     

    Children's Health is the only nonprofit health system for kids in North Texas that provides top-ranked care for more than 300,000 patients each year, discovers cures for pediatric diseases, and works to build a healthier community for families.

     

    Operation Kindness is the leading no-kill animal shelter in North Texas, providing assistance to animals in need and distributing more than 110,000 pounds of pet food to families in 2020, an organization record.

     

    The Samaritan Inn is a comprehensive homeless program that helps willing people gain dignity and independence. Services include counseling, case management, career development skills, and financial literacy classes. Most nights, about 160 people sleep at the inn, a third of which are children.

     

    After experiencing a 41 percent increase in new-home sales in 2020, Trinity Falls is now ranked among the nation's 50 top-selling master-planned communities.

     

     Explore the website or talk with a builder sales representative to see why so many people are making the move to Trinity Falls. Purchase soon, and you'll be doing something nice not just for yourself but also for those in need.

    Dallas ranks as 2nd most pet-friendly place to rent in 2024

    Rentals in Dallas that allowed pets leased three days sooner than units that didn't allow pets.

    A new market trend report from Zillow has confirmed that pet-friendly rentals are leasing much faster than non-pet-friendly units, and Dallas' rental market had the second most pet-friendly rental listings on Zillow in 2024.

    The report, called "Saying Yes to Pets Helps Landlords Find a Tenant Faster," analyzed more than 11 million rental listings that appeared on Zillow last year to discover the share of pet-friendly rental listings in the biggest U.S. metros. The report also calculated the median number of days it took for pet-friendly units to find a tenant faster than those that did not allow pets.

    The Lone Star State led the nation with the most pet-friendly rental listings on Zillow out of all 50 states last year. Nationally, only 57 percent of rental listings in the U.S. allowed pets, which is a disappointing amount when compared to the major Texas cities.

    The data revealed Dallas has a deep appreciation for pets, with 79 percent of rental listings in the city allowing tenants to have furry best friends.

    Dallas fell second only to Austin, where pet-friendly rentals accounted for 80 percent of all citywide listings on Zillow in 2024. San Antonio ranked right behind Dallas with the third highest share of rentals that allowed pets, at 78 percent. Don't mess with Texas pets, y'all.

    Surprisingly, Houston appeared at the bottom of the list as the U.S. metro with the smallest share of rental listings that allowed pets, at just 38 percent.

    The report additionally found that pet-friendly rentals in Dallas were leased three days faster than units that don't allow pets. For comparison, it took about eight days for the median U.S. pet-friendly rental to lease sooner than its non-pet-friendly counterpart.

    In a separate survey of the "typical American renter," Zillow discovered more than half of renters declined to lease a certain property because it didn't allow pets.

    "Renters have more leverage than in quite some time after last year's multifamily construction boom, and the data show allowing pets can make a difference in leasing out a unit quickly," the report said. "The median renter is getting older, and more renters now have a pet. Nearly six in 10 renters are pet owners, up from 46 percent before the pandemic."

    In Austin, rentals that allow pets lease 10 days sooner than non-pet-friendly units, and that number slows down to six days sooner in San and just one day faster in Houston.
