Lubbock's Tech Terrace Neighborhood

Seasons Greetings all! Lubbock homes and particularly those in Tech Terrace are beginning to sparkle and shine with holiday decorations.

Today's listings in MLS in Tech Terrace show that there are 38 homes for sale now in the neighborhood. The least expensive home in the neighborhood is listed at $64,500.00. This home is just under 1000 sq ft and is located at 2812 30th Street. New carpeting and a $1000.00 updating allowance contribute to making this small home a great buy for someone.

At the other end of the spectrum is the historic home located at 3107 19th Street which is priced at a cool $700,000.00. I had the pleasure of showing this home and while it does still need some updating, it is spectacular. THis home is a 4/4.5/3 with close to 6000 square feet.

A brand new home in Tech Terrace offers the best of both worlds. Check it out at 2610 23rd, listing price $214,900.00, 1810 square feet.

If you would like to see any of these homes call me. I can show you any home listed in the MLS in Tech Terrace or anywhere in Lubbock.

And if you want to sell a home in Tech Terrace...call me. I have a true appreciation for Tech Terrace as a neighborhood having lived there for 5 years. And unlike many Lubbock Realtors who want your listing, I understand the appeal of older homes and can convey that to buyers.

Have a great holiday season!

Tech Terrace Homes, July 2010

Did you read the news in the Avalanche Journal today about Lubbock's housing market? If not, you might want to check it out. In a nutshell, June 2010 was a slow down month for local housing and we now have just over a 6 month inventory of homes for sale. When our supply of homes tops the 6 month mark it typically shifts some control to buyers. There is more supply than demand right now so sellers should be sure their home is priced to beat the competition (other homes for sale in your area) and is in tip top condition.

There are 58 Tech Terrace homes for sale today per the MLS. If you are an investor or are not opposed to some traffic noise, check out the homes for sale that are located on the corner of Indiana avenue. The home located at 3318 25th is one example. It has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths and is priced at 130K which is only $42.79 per square foot...compared to the neighborhood average of $86.70 per square foot.

I plan to see this Tech Terrace home in person soon because just from reading about it and viewing the listing I get really good vibes. So I'm calling it my Good Vibrations Pick of the Week. Take a look at 3209 28th Street! This home is located on a great street in Tech Terrace, has 2180 square feet, and is priced at only $183,500.00. An easy walk or bike ride to Texas Tech University. Okay, to tell you the truth, they had me at "Santa Fe style". The photos live up to the verbage. Go to my website, www.lubbocktxrealtor.com and do a search for this cool home and if it gives you good vibrations too, call me. I will make an appointment. Don't wait...I don't think this home will last long!

I love working with buyers and sellers and know the Lubbock real estate market. And I especially love working with those buying and selling Tech Terrace real estate. If you have a favorite home in the area, a yard of the month that needs to be recognized, or want to go see some Tech Terrace homes, give me a call or send me a note!
