Owners of Dublin Ranch homes will, the weekend of November 13-16, 2009, get 20% off at Restoration Hardware’s Friends and Family event. Just download the attached coupon, and you’ll be on your way to fantastic savings at one of our area’s most exclusive home furnishings provider – what a great way to kick off the holiday season!

In order to avoid your selections from becoming back-ordered, pre-ordering begins this Thursday, November 5th. When you pre-order, your selections will be among the first to be input in the warehousing system, meaning faster ship-times as well.

A couple months ago, we here at Dublin Ranch Lifestyle wanted to provide the community with a better, more efficient way to learn about the area they live in, the events going on around them and to find out about great real estate investment opportunities faster than before. We decided the best way to do this was a complete revamp of the Dublin Ranch Lifestyle website.

While this "Welcome to 2.0" is long overdue, we hope to draw your attention to a few major (and some minor) changes in the site to help you learn more about Dublin Ranch and all it has to offer. Namely, some major changes to the site include:

Owners of Dublin Ranch homes have something to celebrate! After spending months in a severe buyer’s market with values declining hundreds of thousands of dollars per month, we seem to have finally come to the upswing – for the last three months, inventory has been under three months!

Why is that something to celebrate? It’s an easy explanation: values increase and decrease based on simple supply and demand; when sellers or buyers have the upper hand, home values trend up or down, respectively. Remember the days of multiple offers and homes selling above the asking price? Those days have returned, and with a vengeance!

Buffalo Wild Wings is now open in Dublin Ranch, and owners of Dublin Ranch homes, condos and townhomes have a new place to hang out.

I have to admit, when I heard our beautiful neighborhood was getting a “Wings” joint, I was MORE than a little bit skeptical. We are such a classy neighborhood; the idea of a restaurant coming that emphasized food you can pick up at just about any fast-food restaurant and presenting itself on the internet as an alternative to TGI Fridays had me more than a little worried about the caliber of businesses the recession was allowing us to attract.
