American Oaks quick facts
American Oaks HOA dues
The homes
The houses
American Oaks is a 1970s single-story neighborhood. Almost every sale here has been a one-level house, most of them three or four bedrooms. The most common plans are about 1,300 and 1,500 square feet. A few owners have added on; the largest house, on Ashwood Court, is now about 3,100 square feet with six bedrooms.
The streets
The tract is built around American Oaks Avenue, with short courts off it. Wendy Park is within a quarter mile, and Deer Ridge Open Space is about a quarter mile south. Neighboring tracts are Wendy Oaks, Shadow Hills, Deer Ridge and Glenridge. Shadow Hills, on Firwood and Maplewood courts, was recorded on the same 1976 tract map as the Firwood, Maplewood, Elmwood and Lemonwood section, and the MLS uses both names on those streets.

i
Absorption rate shows how fast homes are selling. It takes the homes for sale today and divides them by the number of homes that sold per month over the last 12 months.
The answer is how many months it would take to sell every home on the market if no new listings came up. Under about 3 months usually means a seller’s market, 3 to 6 months is balanced, and over 6 months favors buyers.
