WESTON LAKES’ LITTLE SECRET
Share this story:
Before you move to Weston Lakes, we have a warning.
Some of the beautiful acreage where dream houses are built is slowly disappearing.
A lawsuit by retired couple Joe and Jill Nixon against the Weston Lakes Property Owners Association documents a nightmare.
“We’ve lost, let’s see, our lot was 1.6 something acres. We’ve lost what they estimate to be an acre of land,” says Jill Nixon. “We’re going to lose our home. No matter what Wayne, we’re going to lose our home.”
Weston Lakes has not only refused to fix the bad drainage problem, they have been raising dues for all the homeowners to pay lawyers to fight the Nixon’s. The couple says several other homes will likely face the same fate.
What’s worse is the evidence the City of Weston Lakes knew this was a problem before the Nixon’s invested their golden years there.
“We are sounding the alarm. The pretty promotional videos about Weston Lakes don’t include the part where they don’t do the right thing for the people who choose to invest their lives there,” says Wayne Dolcefino, President of the Houston based Investigative Communications firm Dolcefino Consulting.
“Every real estate agent in Fort Bend County should warn their customers about rising dues to pay for the result of bad planning and bad drainage,” says Dolcefino.
“Every other homeowner in Weston Lakes should demand the Nixon’s be made whole, just like they would want their property protected. This is a homeowners association that simply doesn’t care and everyone who invested there should demand protection.”
The Nixon’s lawsuit is in Fort Bend County Court. The family is available for interviews.
“We tried to warn the City of Weston Lakes, but they ignored our calls. The frustrated Nixon family has hired us to warn all potential homebuyers,” says Dolcefino. “We will be glad to update this story when Weston Lakes does the right thing and show they care about the people who invest there. In the meantime, we will sound the alarm.”
“Every time it rains, it’s a nightmare,” the Nixons tell us. “Is today they day the fence falls in or is today the day the house slips over the edge?”
You don’t see that on the Weston Lakes promotion video or their town website.
