People still seem to love the train. I have friends who go out of their way to ride it around the park and Med Center.So, I think it has to help. This will be one of the few rail lines that go through a real community.
Just think how easy the commute to downtown will be. I can’t remember where the stations are planned: One, South at Quitman; another near the Loop? (Sorry, my brain is all Christmassy). I don’t know about timing either. Nothing the government does is done quickly or efficiently. The recession is not ending soon either, so I don’t see a big land rush.
Lindale is an area I recommend to everyone who can’t afford Heights and Rice Military prices. Let me know if I can offer advice on your house. A two bath house is always good….Rich

I have been considering selling my home on English street. I am unsure however if this would be the right choice. Do you think the metro rail will help increase the property value or could it go down in value? I am five houses from Fulton and I see that it is one of the few cross signals. I am concerned about the noise factor and the possible traffic up and down the street. However I also can see how this would be a commuters paradise. This is a three bedroom, two bath house. What is your professional opinion?

Thank you

Martha, I just sent you a list of remodeled homes in Lindale. Remodeled homes typically sell for $130-140/SF, some higher than this. If you can do the remodel for $25k or so, you should be all right.
I haven’t seen your house, but compare it to the list I sent you. Exterior elevation & curb appeal are huge items too, so compare these too. Contact me again if you need more info…Rich

My home is located at 304 Woodard St. 77009, about four years ago I paid 170,000.00 for the house(the bathroom and kitchen need to be updated). My question is…if the bathroom and kitchen are updated will I get a return on my money? The house has two bedrooms and one bath.
