And, if you go in the back entrance, you never see them at all. Ballantyne has the same thing, and now that it is developed, no one ever comments on them!
Thanks for the tip. Is the back entrance off of Chestnut?

It's a beautiful community. The power lines were the only thing that I did not like.

I think you can get a great deal in Weddington Chase. We looked in there a yar ago and there were over 30 listings. I was concerned with the amount of for sales in comparison to similar communities. I am glad I did not buy there last year even though I found my dream house off the Providence entrance. I thnk the same house is still for sale and selling for about $60K less. You will probably get a great deal.

I first started looking at houses in Clt. in Nov. of 2007 and many that I saw for sale then, both in WC and elsewhere, are still for sale.

i think the $450K and up market is where you are seeing a trouble market. Not everyone is able to qualify for these loans plus considering how shaky the Real estate market is, you could see a little more down pressure. Weddington Chase is in an area of Union County where there is a lot of new construction. many of these builders are offering great deals for new construction. We loved the feel and the community very much. Someone else had posted about brookehaven too. We liked W. Chase better, but we liked the location of Brookehaven much better. Brookehaven was just a little closer to everything and far removed from Providence Road, which can be a little bit of a pain if you live south of the 485 loop. Again, we liked W Chase very much. We did not like that so many houses where for sale and this is alreay going back to last summer where the market was starting to slow down. It just seems as the community is not turning these houses fast enough or they are staying in the market too long. Again, if you are buying there, make sure you get a great deal. What happens if you buy a house there and a few yers you try to sell it. Just be careful.
