Items to Verify with Your Agent
A few specifics on this page are sourced from secondary aggregators or older filings. Confirm before relying:
- Approx Homes — No plat map, township subdivision record, or authoritative source was found stating the total lot or home count for Falconcrest. Value left null to avoid fabrication.
- Builder — No single builder or developer has been identified for Falconcrest across public records, township documents, or public databases. Year-built ranges (1965–1974) across individual parcels suggest organic or phased development by multiple parties. Left null.
- Hoa Name — No HOA is recorded in public sales data or identified in any public database for Falconcrest in West Goshen Township, PA. Public records structural data confirms no HOA found. Left null.
- High School Boundary — West Goshen Township is served by multiple high school feeder patterns (Fugett/East and Henderson). Wikipedia and WCASD sources confirm Glen Acres feeds into Fugett/East, but boundary lines within the subdivision cannot be verified without the district’s official interactive map. Buyers must confirm with WCASD.
- Appreciation Range Text / Avg Year Built Anomaly Check — The input avg_year_built of 1967 is consistent with verified public records parcel data showing individual homes built 1965–1974, with livingplaces.com citing circa 1967. No anomaly flagged. The appreciation index sales count of 2 is noted as a thin sample but does not conflict with the 33-year pattern language used.
