Overview

Inside Rainwater Crossing

Rainwater Crossing is a joint venture of Green Brick Partners and Hersh Family Investments in Celina, east of Preston Road near County Road 134. Community Impact reported in May 2026 that the 641-acre community opened its first model homes with more than 1,800 homes planned across seven phases, and Green Brick builds through its own brands: Normandy Homes and Centre Living Homes in Phase 1, with CB JENI townhomes expected in Phase 2. It fits buyers who want to get in early on a new community with a mix of single-family and townhome options.

The lesson with a community this new is that you are buying the plan, not just the house. The amenity center, entrance park and later phases were still under construction in 2026, so ask what is built, what is promised and on what timeline, and read the HOA and any assessment documents before you sign. For early buyers who later sell, the finished amenities and the price of new homes in later phases will set your resale value, so I track both.

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 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.

Start to keys

Builders write their own contracts, not the standard state forms. I go through every page with you, 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.
