Overview

Inside Rayzor Ranch

Rayzor Ranch is a mixed-use district of about 400 acres at the Interstate 35 and US 380 (University Drive) interchange in Denton, on land once owned by the J. Newton Rayzor family and used for grazing longhorns. US 380 splits it into Rayzor Ranch Marketplace on the north side and Rayzor Ranch Town Center on the south side, where tenants have included Alamo Drafthouse, Andy B's and the Embassy Suites Denton Convention Center. Homes here are mostly rentals: Wan Bridge opened The Residences at Rayzor Ranch in 2022, with 215 townhomes and 65 single-family homes projected.

The lesson here is that a district like this works best for renters and for buyers who want to be near it rather than in it. If you want to own, look at the established neighborhoods around the district and weigh the convenience of walkable shopping against traffic on University Drive and I-35. If you are relocating and not ready to buy, renting near Rayzor Ranch can be a smart first year while you learn Denton, and I can help you plan the move to ownership.

Before you visit a model home

The builder's rep works for the builder. I work for you.

As your agent I owe you fiduciary duties under Texas law: I have to put your interests above everyone else's, including my own, and tell you anything material I learn about the deal. In that sales office, I'm the only real advocate you have.

I read the build, not the brochure

I've spent more than ten years in construction and remodeling, and I'm still involved with MTR, my family's remodeling company. I walk the slab, the framing before drywall and the final with you and your inspector, and I know what to push back on.

Every builder on one page

A builder's rep sells one community. I put your budget side by side across builders, with the PID or MUD, the school district and the incentive each one is offering that month.

Incentives that lower your payment

Builders offer price cuts, closing costs or a rate buydown. I run the numbers on each option so you take the one that does the most for your monthly payment.

In English or Spanish, start to keys

Builders write their own contracts, not the standard state forms. I go through every page with you, in English or Spanish, and stay on it until you have the keys.

On new construction the builder usually pays my fee, and I confirm it in writing before you sign. Bring me, or register me, on your first visit, because many builders won't add an agent later.
