The wife and I have been house hunting for about two months. Currently in north Fort Worth (Alliance area) and wanting to move south
We've looked at many routes with new builds from Burleson to Mansfield to Benbrook to Aledo...
We just started looking at existing homes inside Fort Worth proper; Ridgmar, Ridglea, Ridglea Hills, Mount Del, all the Heights, Fairmount, Ryan Place, Berkeley, prob a few more...
Ridglea Hills and Ridglea CC Estates and Allen Place are my favorites so far.
I've never bought anything used (parents bought two new builds growing up, we're in a new build now) and it's difficult for me to grasp it. My wife grew up in and around many of these neighborhoods, and has always wanted to live in Fairmount. I've been told it's been "up and coming" for 20 years now. Really? 20 years and this is what it looks like?
It's hard for me to think about spending $400k+ on 2-3k sf with no garage and all the crap yards I see everywhere.
What am I missing? What's he appeal of Fairmount or Ryan Place? Even if you get on one of the nicer streets with clean homes around you, one street over and you're in crap again...
