Saturday morning means one thing around here: the McKinney Farmers Market at Chestnut Square. There’s nothing quite like picking up fresh local produce, seeing familiar faces, and enjoying the community we’ve built right here in our own backyard.

Living in North Texas isn’t just about the house you buy—it’s about the lifestyle and the neighbors that come with it. If you’re ready to call McKinney home, give me a call today. 🍓🍅

What a beautiful day at the Byron Nelson today!

Transitioning Seasons in Collin County: An Update from David Riche
Hello neighbors! As we approach the midpoint of 2026, we find ourselves in that unique North Texas window—wrapping up the fiscal year’s momentum while bracing for the famous McKinney summer heat.

Between my work on the McKinney Community Development Corporation (MCDC) board and helping families find their dream homes here in Collin County, I’ve seen firsthand how much our community is growing. But as the temperature rises, so does the wear and tear on your home.

Whether you’re looking to sell this summer or just want to keep your sanctuary in top shape, here are a few “Riche Group” tips to get your property ready for the Texas sun.

☀️ Summer Ready: Home Maintenance Essentials
Service the HVAC Now: Don’t wait for a 100-degree day in July to find out your AC is struggling. A quick professional tune-up now saves you a massive headache (and a lot of sweat) later.

Inspect Your Irrigation: Our Collin County soil is notorious for shifting. Ensure your sprinklers are hitting the grass—not the sidewalk—to keep your foundation hydrated and your curb appeal sharp.

Check the Attic Insulation: If you haven’t looked up there in a few years, you might be losing money. Proper insulation is the secret to keeping those electric bills manageable when the Texas sun is beating down.

Freshen the Mulch: A fresh layer of mulch does more than look good; it retains moisture for your plants and protects roots from the upcoming heat waves.

🏠 Thinking of Moving This Summer?
The McKinney market remains vibrant, but “summer ready” also means “market ready.” If you’ve been curious about what your home is worth in today’s landscape, or how the latest city developments might be impacting your property value, I’m always here for a cup of coffee and a chat.

It is an honor to serve this city—from the historic downtown square to our newest neighborhoods. Let’s make sure your home is prepared for a fantastic season ahead.

Stay cool, McKinney!
