photo MikeAskins

Mike Askins of ARG meeting with Jerry Jones at Star Creek in AllenDuring 2008 and early 2009, Mike Askins at ARG has once again achieved the distinction of being Star Creek's No.1 Selling New Home Realtor® and for no small reason. ARG has developed and deployed DFW's most agressive, money saving new home move up program for our clients who pay no commission to sell their existing home when they are new home buyer client's of ARG at Star Creek.

Darling Homes is J.D. Powers No.1 New Home Builder for the DFW Metroplex in 2008. It never fails when I visit one of Darling's Model homes, that a 10 minute photo shoot turns into 2 hours!

To me Darling Homes is on their own mission as a home builder and they don't waste much time looking at what the other builders are doing. Just one walk through nearly ANY of Darling's Model Homes will tell all. When you are leading in innovation, design, quality and warranty service you must be doing…
