Whatever Your Life Stage Might Be, Here's How to Find Your Place

April 30, 2025

Most people want more options, rather than fewer. This is particularly true when it comes to the size and style of their homes. For example, imagine a community that offers a combination of single-family homes, townhouses, build-to-rent properties, and apartments. 

As younger professionals move into the area, they may prefer apartments for flexibility and affordability. Families looking for more space might opt for single-family homes or townhouses, while retirees may favor low-maintenance build-to-rent homes. Interestingly, single-family rentals now make up nearly 10% of all new home constructions, marking a notable rise compared to previous years.

At Elevon, a master-planned community near Lake Lavon just north of Dallas, having housing options for different demographics and life stages is a sign of inclusiveness, welcoming families, professionals, retirees, and more. This mix ensures the community remains adaptable to shifts in demographics, like an influx of young professionals or growing families, and market trends like the increasing demand for rental properties. 

Growing Markets

By offering diverse housing types—such as single-family homes, townhouses, and build-to-rent (BTR) homes- a home at Elevon can match individual lifestyle needs and share access to upscale amenities  and neighborhood events. Generational diversity builds stability and resilience. Young families lay roots, while older generations provide constancy and continuity.

It’s no wonder Elevon’s premier builders are ramping up efforts to develop more single-family homes, addressing the housing shortage while providing greater rental options for a variety of needs. With rising home prices and increasing mortgage rates, renting has become a more appealing choice for many. In response, housing developments are providing rental options that combine affordability with high-quality living. 

Build-to-rent homes offer the feel of single-family living without requiring a down payment. Adding BTR homes to a neighborhood gives residents more options, especially for those who want the perks of single-family living without the commitment to owning a home. It's perfect for young professionals, families, or even retirees looking for flexibility. 

By supporting cohesive communities, economic markets grow. With more people living in these neighborhoods, there’s greater demand for shops, restaurants, and services. It has a “ripple effect.” More spending helps drive growth, creating a vibrant and sustainable local economy

Community Advantage

Downtown Lavon preserves its heritage through its architecture and streets, showcasing the town's history. Lavon's rural charm and abundant natural surroundings, including Lake Lavon, make it an attractive location for Elevon homebuyers who are seeking a peaceful lifestyle. Buyers are drawn to the slower pace, tight-knit community, and all the natural beauty that Lavon offers.  However, if you’re looking for those bright lights, big city vibes, Dallas is a mere 33 miles away. Elevon residents can live in Lavon and still enjoy all the conveniences of an urban center. That’s a win-win! 

Each new homeowner who moves to Elevon contributes to the local economy, supporting small businesses, schools, and services that are the backbone of the town. A mix of income levels in a community promotes the development of housing, retail, and services that cater to different socioeconomic groups, assuring sustainable growth.

Lavon features a variety of eateries like “La Cima Mexican Cuisine,” known for its authentic dishes, and “The Downtown Diner,” a favorite for classic American comfort food. Close to the heart of town, Lavon Municipal Park features playgrounds, scenic walking trails, and inviting picnic areas. Its location provides residents with convenient access to outdoor recreation.

Located a short drive from downtown, Lavon Lake provides opportunities for fishing, boating, and picnicking, making it a popular spot for both leisure and exploration. Its presence adds even more to the charm of the community.

 

Diversity by Design

Having housing options that reflect the needs of all households increases generational diversity and caters to a wide range of needs. Collaborative communities like this prioritize great schools and parks for families, as well as recreational programs and healthcare for seniors. Elevon’s Lifestyle Director hosts events and activities for all generations, encouraging interaction and engagement.

Economic diversity ensures a range of job opportunities, attracting people with varied skills and income levels. It encourages employers to provide opportunities for everyone, from entry-level workers to highly specialized professionals. A range of skills within a community leads to diverse industries and startups, sparking innovation and creating a robust local economy.
