My advice for buying in The Heights
Parts of the Heights are city historic districts, where exterior changes need a Certificate of Appropriateness. I'll check whether a home is in one before you fall in love with a remodel plan.
Every home search with me covers the details that protect you in Texas: the seller's disclosure, flood zone and flood history, the full property tax rate (including any MUD or PID), HOA rules, the inspection during your option period, and your homestead exemption after closing.
Selling a home in The Heights?
I price homes using recent HAR sales nearby, prepare your home with professional photos and a cinematic video tour, and market it on HAR.com, the major home search sites and social media. Get a free price opinion.
