Master-planned suburban single-family and townhomes, stucco with tile roofs, 1,800–3,500 sq ft; village-style clusters; 2002–2012; wood-frame with stucco, structured wiring panels (Cat5/Cat6), tile roofs, 2–3 car garages, smart-home-ready electrical, community fiber in some sections.
Builder-installed Brinks/ADT alarm contracts expiring en masse—entire villages hitting 10–15 year contract end simultaneously creating wave of takeover opportunities; structured wiring panels present but many never connected to an actual security panel; community fiber may conflict with cellular alarm backup; HOA requiring earth-toned cameras and no visible wiring on facades.
