We chose Owens Cross Roads over Madison. Prettier, more beautiful hills to look at, less crowded, quiet, etc. We moved here almost a year ago and love it.
Thank you Cameron, I really appreciate your info!
Hope to see you soon!
I hope so too!
Cameron, great comparison. Very helpful information. Hopefully, I’ll get an opportunity to visit the Huntsville area next year.
Also, Owens Cross Roads is 15- 20 minutes to the Guntersville Lakes! One reason we chose to move here was closeness to our sailboat at North Alabama Sailing Marina.
I love Lake Guntersville. I spend more time on Wheeler since it's closer to me.
Thanks so much for a very informative video. Overall, OC sounds more appealing to me as we are looking for a semi-rural area to retire, however, Madison’s close proximity to the airport is a real plus. We will be visiting the area at the end of the month and your info is so helpful.
@@CameronWalkerRealty Hi Cameron and thanks for checking in. We ended up visiting northeast TN and was hoping to also drive down to Huntsville but we ran out of time and hope to visit some time next spring.
In the meantime, we’ve continued to watch your videos on the various suburbs around Huntsville, most of which are very nice indeed but too similar to our current area (Austin Metroplex). We’d like to find an area that has less people, more land in between homes, more scenic.
The entire area within the zip code 35763 is commonly referred to as "Owens Cross Roads". This includes: Owens Cross Roads (the city), areas within the city limits of Huntsville, and Madison County. All mail to 35763 is addressed to Owens Cross Roads even if it is within Huntsville City limits, because it goes through the Owens Cross Roads post office. Most of the houses in this area, especially new construction, are actually within the Huntsville city limits.
Thank you Cameron! You touched on crucial details as far as I am concerned. I am heading your way within the next 4 weeks and will connect with you when I am there.
Thank you so much. I'm glad to know my video was helpful. Please try to give me a bit of a heads up before you come. I want to make sure I'm available while you're here.
@@CameronWalkerRealty I should know more the latter part of this week and will reconnect by early next week. I may need a rental home initially if you have suggestions, I would appreciate very much.
@@mollysullivan2526 that would be great. When we connect I will give you a few options for rentals. I have several companies my past clients have used for short term stays, so you should have at least a few options from which to choose.
Love you videos I'm trying to move there if I can ever get my home sold in Tennessee Memphis to be exact
Great video. Do you have any videos on Harvest Alabama homes?
Hey, thanks for watching, and for the kind words. I have a few videos that touch on Harvest. Here's one on Monrovia which includes the East side of Harvest ua-cam.com/video/uHuwxFpcBqs/v-deo.html Here's one on the Most Affordable Suburbs which includes Harvest ua-cam.com/video/e7EzIfgrOOI/v-deo.html and here's one on Laurenwood Preserve, a neighborhood located where Madison transitions into Harvest ua-cam.com/video/ik-HtOKKpr4/v-deo.html
I'm thinking of relocating to the Huntsville area from Georgia. I've only looked online; I have not been in person yet. Considering Athens, Madison, Owens Cross Roads. Seems like there are a lot of good towns around Huntsville. Any areas to avoid? What's good for a 58-year-old Widow with a dog who likes to hike? 😊
Avoid north side. Monte sano state park is great for hiking.
So no meridianville/hazel green/harvest/new market?
For DR Horton’s new construction, why does Owens cross road property tax rate more than 1.1% for investors?
A good bit of what we call Owens Cross Roads is actually part of Huntsville rather than just unincorporated Madison County. Huntsville taxes are a little higher than the county taxes. Property taxes for primary residences in Alabama receive a tax deduction of about 50% +/-, and often times new construction homes are taxed as unimproved land until some point later. When the city or county figures out there's a home on that land the property taxes jump. So, investors and secondary home owners will always pay a higher tax rate than a primary owner there are.ogher factors involved as well. I have a video for how to calculate the property taxes with a link to the tool to do so.
Thank you!
Do you mind to share the link to calculate taxes?
@@athenatong3768 You're welcome. Let me know if I can help ua-cam.com/video/G-aoU3HXpxo/v-deo.htmlsi=N-luSu9SPQOD3OYt
So I see you deleted my comment warning Buyers. Like I said we Love the location and Residents, Just way too frustrating getting issues resolved with Wren Home Builder. It is an injustice what you are doing. What is so wrong warning Buyers? I wish somebody warned us when we bought.
@glowinthelight No, I didn't delete it. I actually replied. I think it's great to give other buyers a warning!
This is my OXR vs Madison video. Your comment is on my video on The Meadows.
In my reply to you I asked a question about where in the community you see drainage issues. If you get a chance please reply to that comment, so people watching that video can get a better sense of the issue.
I really appreciate you sharing your experience, it's exactly the kind of comments I want to see!
Hello sorry about this! I can send you a video if you can share me your email.
@@glowinthelight no worries, I really appreciate you keeping it civil! You know how online comments get nowadays.
I actually clicked on your user name and saw the videos you posted. Feel free to link to them in the comments of my video. I think people would want to see that.
My email is cwalker@amandahoward.com
its a year later, you really need to re post lol
Yeah, I was so busy this year I frequently neglected posting weekly videos. Within the past couple of weeks I have hired an editor, and will be booking time with a professional videographer. That way I can get more videos out.
Is there anything specific you would like to see in an updated video?
Must be from the east coast
Just south of Birmingham actually.
Way overpriced for a southern city and salaries are crap down there… no thanks
That's interesting, considering the median income where I reside (OXR/Hampton Cove, Southeast Huntsville) is $120,000 🤔
