In a planned unit development comes with many potential benefits such as cheaper homes, cheaper taxes, large open spaces and recreational areas or lots, neighborhood community activities and ability for residents to come together and make decisions regarding common areas of subdivision.

What is a PUD?

A PUD (Planned Unit Development) such as Whisper Creek is a type of ownership where individuals actually own the building or unit they live in, but common areas are owned jointly with the other members of the development or association. With some PUD's, homeowners may individually own the property and airspace of his or her unit, but the recreational buildings and common areas are owned jointly with the others in the development or association.
