Hi all, We are new to Houston and this country as well. We are first time home buyers planning to buy a townhome soon. We love the Hermann Park area and like these set of townhomes called "Mews by Park" . They are on EWING street, one street south of Binz and about a couple of blocks from Hermann Park. They are also a couple of Blocks from Almeda. They were built in 2000 and have already appreciated around 25%-30% in value. Anyone has any any experience there? They are right next to a Houston Public Housing Apartment Complex. Our realtor has advised that this might affect the resale value of the townhome (we plan to sell in about 5 years). Do you think this is true? Otherwise the location is great (in my view). Also what other areas you suggest for buying a townhome (inside the loop). We like quiet residential type areas that are child friendly (we are expecting one soon!). Budget is $250k-$275k. Thanks for your help.
