Cordillera Ranch Visitors Center

• This resource is available to you to assist in showing your client what Cordillera Ranch is all about. Located at the main Cordillera Ranch entrance off of Highway 46, the Visitors Center provides you a place to meet clients, show maps and get any questions answered about club membership or anything about the community.
• You have access to our maps, plats, copiers, conference rooms, community knowledge and over 100 years of collective real estate experience. In addition, we can give you all the information you need about developer listings (which aren’t on MLS) as well as updates on all future offerings.
• Let us help you verify correct lot numbers, property lines and lot corners.
• All new spec homes are listed with our office so we can help you with floor plans, photos, lot plans, builder information and other information related to each home.
• We are open seven days a week from 9AM until dusk.

Cordillera Ranch Real Estate Market

(updated 1/1/12)

• Since the beginning of the project in 1997 there have been approximately 1,100 lots sold. Over 550 homes have been completed and occupied with another 30 under construction and 20 more in design review and planning.
• 2011 LOT SALES The Cordillera Ranch market remains stronger than any community in the area. In 2011 there were 37 lots sold in Cordillera Ranch at an average price of $262k, compared to 29 lots in 2009 and 41 lots sold in 2010.  Average lot sales price has steadily increased every year: up from $193k in 2009 and $217k in 201o. However, part of the reason for the large jump in average price was the addition of two new exclusive sections, one of which is a small enclave of lots on top of the highest hill in the community and the other has waterfront views on a bluff overlook Swede Creek Lake.  With such a vast community and so many distinctly different neighborhoods in Cordillera Ranch, there is a wide range of property types and prices.  In 2011, lot sales prices ranged from $68,000 to $695,000.
• 2011 HOME SALES Home sales activity also continued to increase in 2011, with 20 home sales (closings) during the year at an average price of $986k.  That is an 11% average price increase from 2010 – it was also a jump in homes sold from 18 during the prior year.  This does not include all of the custom home starts that occurred or the new villa construction, of which we’ve sold 9 new units in the past 18 months.  And there currently 30 additional custom homes under construction plus another 20 custom homes in design review in the community.  CORDILLERA RANCH REAL ESTATE IS HOT.  COME SEE FOR YOURSELF.

The Clubs of Cordillera Ranch

• Contact our Director of Membership Sales, Debbie Pepper (direct line 830-336-3544), at the Clubhouse for any questions regarding club membership. You can email her at: dpepper@cordilleraranch.com.
• The Club’s offerings will be explained as well as membership details specific to each level of membership available.
• Your clients have the opportunity to experience all of the club facilities. Just set up an appointment in advance of your visit with Debbie Pepper. Remember that you are not selling a property in Cordillera Ranch, it’s a lifestyle.
• IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MASTER AND CONDITIONAL MEMBERSHIPS. We sometimes find that buyers purchase their property and only after closing do they find out it does not include a right to a Master Membership.  It’s very important that your client understand the difference between a Master and Conditional membership before showing them properties.  Click here to learn more.
• Availability of membership with each property could be different and we can verify and explain what type of membership is available and how the transfer of membership between the buyer and seller will work.
• Go to the Club Membership page to learn more about memberships.
