3700M West Village
Tuesday, May 28th, 2013 | by Tim Brown

Forest City Enterprises and AIG recently partnered up to bring Dallas a new mix-used urban development located in the same spot that Hank Haney previously occupied. Named 3700M West Village, the $100 million project will feature a 21-story tower, 381 apartment units, a pair of five-story buildings and 37,000 square feet of retail space. Forest City will own and manage the apartments, while Cityplace Co. will own and operate the retail side.
Hank Haney’s golf range occupied the address for 17 years before moving in early 2010 to their new location near the Renaissances Hotel.
Construction on the mix-used development began back in December 2012 and is expected to be completed in the fall 2014.
Hopefully this new supply will help out with the increasing demand in Uptown.

CiTYViLLE is more than a place to live… It’s a place to experience life (According to their website)
I recently visited this new mixed use development to see what all it had to offer and I must say… I was impressed! The Kroger was full of employees excited to be there (they clapped as I paid) and the LA Fitness looks like it will compete with the oh-so famous LIFETIME fitness at Mockingbird Station. The residential area will have 356 units for rent and over 106,000 square feet of ground level retail. The finish outs inside the unit match the trendy design just right. Residents will enjoy; downtown views, simulated wood plank floors, gourmet kitchens, stainless steel appliances and much more.
Opening January 2013; this new development can’t come soon enough!

Are Young Uptowners Movin’ East?
Monday, December 10th, 2012 | by Tim Brown
The future of Uptown seems to be forever promising but what happens when the rent becomes too expensive for the fresh out of College kid? It’s not like they’re going to give up Kung Fu Saloon and late nights at Avenu to move to the suburbs or back in with their parents to save money... They’re going to find a place as close as they possibly can and pay the $12 cab ride!
As of November, the average rent in Uptown for a 1 bedroom apartment is $1,087/month; lower than usual since we’re generally slower this part of the year. As an Agent, I try to always find the best deal and solution for all of my clients and let’s face it... The $700/month that you thought was going to get you that ballin’ place on McKinney just isn’t all that likely. In fact, if you want to live across from Kung Fu; you’ll need around $1,400/month if you want a 1 bedroom @ Villa Rosa updated w/ hardwoods and granite.

I recently compared 2 townhouses: One in Uptown that leased for $3,500/month and one in E Dallas that leased for $2,400/month. Both 3bed/3bath townhouses were completely updated w/granite, 2 car garage, gated access, hardwood flrs and private rooftop balcony. The only major difference was that they were .8mi away from another. So, you basically save $1,100/month for living .8mi away from McKinney Ave. Not too shabby!

High-Rise with the best backyard in Dallas
Wednesday, August 29th, 2012 | by Tim Brown
The building with the best backyard goes to... The Museum Tower, designed by architect Scott Johnson, a member of the Los Angeles-based Johnson Fain architectural firm. Originally proposed as a 20-story tower, the height was significantly increased to accommodate more residences. The building will be a glass Modern-style skyscraper, featuring an elliptical floor plan. Situated in the center of the Arts District, Museum Tower will be located adjacent to the Nasher Sculpture Center, the Meyerson Symphony Center, the Winspear Opera House and Wyly Theatre.The building will consist of 125 residential condominiums, ranging from 1,450 to 8,700 square feet in area. Each condominium will feature direct-access elevators and private balconies. When finished, Museum Tower will rise 560 feet, with 42 floors. It will stand as the 15th-tallest structure in Dallas, tied with both the Reunion Tower and Cityplace Center in height. The building will not obtain the record for the tallest all-residential building in Dallas, as it would not surpass the height of Republic Center Tower I's 602-foot spire. However, if measuring by roof height, and thereby excluding the Republic Center Tower I's spire, the Museum Tower would become the tallest residential tower in Dallas. It would also break the record for the highest residence in Dallas, surpassing the 452 feet (138 m) roof height of Republic I. Furthermore, upon completion, the Museum Tower will become the 3rd-tallest building in Dallas' Arts District, behind Fountain Place and the Trammell Crow Center.

Before you begin dreaming of owning your next home, you must consider the importance of obtaining the best mortgage. A mortgage is the groundwork of any good home purchase; find a great mortgage and you could be a priming yourself for an excellent investment; lock into a not-so-great mortgage and you could be looking at years of heachaches and financial problems. There are a number of factors to consider when obtaining the best mortgage: Your credit – if you want to obtain the best mortgage, take a look at your credit first. A good credit rating is vital for obtaining the best mortgage, so it is important first order a copy of your credit report from all three credit reporting agencies, once you have the credit report in front of you. Take the time to carefully review and make any necessary corrections. If you find any discrepancies or errors on the credit report, immediately report it to the appropriate credit reporting agency.
