Eight San Antonio and Boerne Realtors participated last month in a photo shoot held onsite at Esperanza.  Professional hair and makeup artists from TO&R Beauty Bar put the finishing touches on the ladies before taking professional photos in front of the mission.  The ads can be seen in San Antonio Business Journal’s Gallery of Luxury Homes, in SABOR’s Real Estate NewsSource, and on social media.  Many thanks to everyone that contributed to a successful campaign.

Esperanza is excited to welcome Dr. Ferdinand L. Herff Elementary School into the neighborhood. The groundbreaking celebration on March 27, 2018 was not just about the new school, but also about Boerne’s rich history and the Herff Family. Beginning Fall of 2019 children living in Esperanza will attend Herff Elementary.

The Lookout Group conveyed 20 acres in Esperanza to Boerne ISD in anticipation
of building a neighborhood elementary school. Esperanza will provide not only the lifestyle you’ve hoped for, but also the school you’ve hoped for.

In a partnership with the city, The Lookout Group has constructed Boerne’s first reclaimed water tank rising 150 feet above Esperanza on Texas Highway 46.  Towering high above the tree line, the green tank with its logos representing the collaborative work between the city and the developer is visible from miles away.  The tank holds approximately 400,000 gallons of treated wastewater which will be used for landscape irrigation.  Not only will this save 240 million gallons of potable water per year for the residents of Boerne, it will be sold to the residents of Esperanza at a substantial discount compared to potable water.

The responsible irrigation practice and forward thinking design of providing reclaimed water to every home is a contributable factor to strong sales in Esperanza.  “Most buyers immediately see the economical and environmental value in reusing water to irrigate lawns,” says Larry Allen, Director of Sales for Monticello Homes. “Esperanza is leading the way in sustainable Texas Hill Country living.”  Ryan Turner, Senior Sales Associate for Scott Felder Homes adds, “Potential buyers understand that the Esperanza development is something special to be of part of and they are extremely receptive to the use of recycled water.  The Lookout Group is doing amazing things for not only residents of Esperanza but also for Boerne by donating land for schools, building roads and planning for the future today.”

Mike Siefert, Vice President of Construction and Jim Plasek, Executive Vice President of Community Development, both of The Lookout Group were joined by the Greater Boerne Chamber of Commerce to celebrate the ribbon cutting of Esperanza.  Everyone met in front of the 1850’s inspired mission located at the entrance of Esperanza.  For full video, watch here.

The Lookout Group will be hosting a Realtor Preview in ClearWater Ranch in Liberty Hill on May 24, 4-6.  All area Realtors are invited to enjoy some tacos from Mellizoz Tacos and a margarita while touring the three completed models, get a sneak preview of the 88 new homesites available and spin the wheel for a prize.  Space is limited so RSVP via Facebook or email kelly@mycrystalfalls.com.

The Lookout Group is preparing for its long awaited Grand Opening of Esperanza during the second weekend of the GSABA Spring Tour of Homes in the San Antonio area.  In a collaborative effort with the highly acclaimed builders in Esperanza, several fun-filled family activities are scheduled including face painting, a petting zoo, and  Kona Ice.
