02 Aug 2019 by Penny Richey

Hello Neighbors,

Good news!  The Westhaven Estates homes real estate market has strengthened over last year in Westhaven estates.  Both in Single Family homes and in Townhomes listings and sales are up over 2018.  Our great Houston location, close proximity to the Houston Galleria, Houston Uptown, and renovated Houston Post Oak area add to the desirability plus Briargrove Elementary School and many private schools add to the local flavor.  Also important is our access to I-10, Loop 610, Hwy 59/69, Westpark and Sam Houston Tollroads make commutes to downtown, the Houston Medical Center and both airports handy.  The best news is, it isn’t flood prone. 

There continues to be new construction in the area which skews the numbers somewhat price/sq. foot, but in a healthy way.  It keeps our neighborhood changing and adds value to older homes, especially those that have been remodeled.  Please share this information to your friends and Neighbors.

By the way, we lost our long-time poodle Wiley Coyote in January but the good news is that we have a new “rescue”, a little white character named Rosco.  I am so happy to be visiting with my dog-walking neighbors again, despite the heat. 

Wishing you the best for the rest of the year, I remain your neighbor who happens to sell real estate and I always enjoy visiting.

Sincerely,

Penny Richey
