Tru- are you thinking east of my house- out 80 towards Forney, or.... way further down south to 20 heading east? 20 and 80 make a triange with 635, and eventually meet up just south of Terrell, as you know.
Pockets of neighborhoods would go for $100's- 200's, some of the nicer pockets more in the 300's. As you pass 'windmill farms' east of Forney, almost to Terrell on 80, those homes are smallish and are 100-150k. 'east side' of Dallas isn't as affluent as north. but... more affluent than west or south, i guess.
Pockets of middle class and affluency that seem to be overshadowed with low-middle class to near poverty throughout Mesquite, etc. There are 'nice areas' to all the east dallas communities. Forney is generally deemed a nice suburb, but certainly not real affluent. Where Joe lives, is a lot of new development, and mushrooming of the suburbs. Where i live, it's already 'all full' and not a lot of room for development..... except.... Sunnyvale is one of those rare burgs that had a ton of farm land, that is 'JUST NOW' begiinning to get developed. It took a large ranch to finally be broken up, sold by heirs out of YEARS of litigation, criminal activity (murders??) etc. to just the last 5 years or less to start getting major development. I am sure things are at a major standstill, though. The town just put in a new high school, actually, it isn't due to open til next August, and all on the speculation that the town is growing. Not much development land left in Dallas county, proper.
I am glad i don't have to sell this uh uh uh unusual property for about 10 years or so! Hopefully, things will have bounced back by then and we won't take too big a hit.
I don't care though; when we're done with it we're done with it. hmmm sorta likethe cobra i guess.
Ultimately, i suspect we'll end up in Terrell. Home-farm, etc. Not 100% on that, though.
alrighty... i'll check right back out.....
hey, Joe. nice to see you the other day!
