Ken Kalish gifted with mortgage-free home at Lake Ridge.
It’s tragedy to triumph for Marine Sergeant Ken Kalish, an American hero who lost three limbs during his service in Afghanistan and who was surprised with a new mortgage-free home at Lake Ridge.
Operation FINALLY HOME (OFH), the Former NFL Players Association, the Dallas Builders Association, SouthStar Communities and Victory Custom Homes teamed up to donate the land and home to Kalish. The Lake RidgePatriot Cup took place the following day at Tangle Ridge Golf Club, with all proceeds benefitting Kalish’s home.
The Sergeant was injured when he stepped on an improvised explosive device (IED) or “road-side” bomb while serving our country on his second tour. The death of his fiancé from a critical illness while Kalish was in surgery was an additional, tragic setback.
Kalish had been trained to detect roadside bombs alongside his black lab, Fynn. Fynn was uninjured and returned stateside with Kalish, where he will also soon make his home at Lake Ridge. Construction on Kalish’s home, which is being built on a one-acre treed lot in The Sanctuary at Lake Ridge, an exclusive gated community on the shores of Joe Pool Lake, is expected to be finished within 90 days and will be part of a CNN special the channel is filming.
Kalish was under the impression he was coming in for an interview yesterday to determine if he was eligible for a mortgage-free home at Lake Ridge at Joe Pool Lake. Instead, he was surprised by more than 100 eager individuals including Lake Ridge residents; Mayor Pro Tem of Grand Prairie Ruthe Jackson; Cedar Hill City Manager Alan Sims, members of the Grand Prairie Police Department; the Grand Prairie Honor Guard; and fourth-graders from Lake Ridge Elementary, who led the Pledge of Allegiance and then joined the crowd in writing notes of love on the construction of a wall that will be included in Kalish’s home.
Also in attendance were several NFL greats, including Dallas Cowboy Bill Bates; however it was Kalish to whom the elementary students flocked, eager for his autograph, curious about his service, his injuries and his dog, and clearly moved by his heroism.
The non-profit organization Operation FINALLY HOME builds homes for wounded veterans and their families. This new mortgage-free home at Lake Ridge is the 10th with SouthStar Communities; homes are also currently being built in the SouthStar Communities of Vintage Oaks in the Texas Hill Country and King Oaks in Bryan-College Station.
Anyone wishing to join the list of volunteers for OFH at Lake Ridge can do so at Lake Ridge.

Lake Ridge, one of the Dallas-area master-planned communities being rediscovered by eager Texas land buyers
By all accounts, Texas home prices are on fire. This is particularly true in the Dallas area, where home prices rose 10.2 percent in May from 2012 levels, according to a new report from CoreLogic Inc. The hot Dallas real estate market is on everyone’s lips, and everyone’s list of places to buy right now (just ask Real Estate Economy Watch or the Dallas Morning News).
Builder Online reports that “demand for new homes is outpacing supply.” In fact, one of the most important measures of market strength, “sold-but-not-yet-built houses,” has risen from 26 percent a year ago to 36 percent today, which is “way up from the low of 14% in…September 2008.
This means new-home builders are speeding up production on communities that may have delayed during the market downturn. It also means the land rush is on, both for new-home builders looking for the next place to build a community, and for individuals and families who may have put off their search for the perfect place to buy Texas land, and who now know the time is right.
Indeed, this historical relationship between home sales and Texas land sales has led to a rush of newly minted interest in master-planned communities in strong markets that have shown great strength throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Communities such as Lake Ridge on Joe Pool Lake that offer large Texas land for sale and waterfront and water-view homesites, are particularly popular with buyers looking to buy in an ideal location. Here, they can find the perfect piece of Texas land and build the ideal custom home that is unique to their style and lifestyle. Five new homes are getting ready to be build in The Sanctuary at Lake Ridge, where Texas land buyers quickly fall in love with the spacious, gated, lakeside and lake-view properties offered in the final neighborhood development at Lake Ridge community.
The real estate market is expected to continue its upward progress, according to Dr. Mark Fleming, chief economist of CoreLogic. “It’s been more than seven years since the housing market last experienced the increases that we saw in May, with indications that the summer months will continue to see significant gains.”
