Ellis County Honor Flight

Honeysuckle Estates is getting more positive press!

A neighborhood that was taken from ghost town to a vibrant oasis!  That is part of what staff writer Rebecca Hertz wrote in yesterday's edition of the Waxahachie Daily Light, Sunday, Jan. 17th copy of the paper.  The article features three of our neighbors and highlights the beginning, middle and latest homes purchased during the course of all the fraud, squatters and scams that originally plauged this upscale neighborhood.  The article goes on to highlight the changes and work that has gone into our great neighborhood to turn it into a really great neighborhood and the vision of what it should have been from the beginning!

Take time to get a copy of the paper and read up on the good things happening here!
