Hi friend,
If you aren't new around here, you know how much I loves numbers, and how much I love sharing them with you, especially when it comes to market updates, and the most popular neighborhoods in Houston TX. Well today, I am sharing with you the top ten popular neighborhoods of 2021. I also share with you some predictions, and what is happening right now in 2022. I hope you enjoy. Hugs, Jo.
P.S. If you are considering a relocation or new home purchase, I would love to guide you in your home hunt, and your home purchase. This list does not take into consideration top schools, so please be sure to research the corresponding schools, before you purchase a new construction home. About 5-10% of the neighborhoods below do not have the top rated schools that others have.

Predictions for 2022
Jordan's Thoughts
So what do we foreshadow happening in the real estate market in the next 5 years? We can anticipate rent prices rising 300%, and we can anticipate sales prices rising 15-20% (sometimes more) each year over year. What does this mean for you? Try your hardest to own not rent. Buy your 5-10 year home, and not your 2-4 year home. New construction will continue to grow in popularity. Inventory will continue to stay at a record low for the unforeseeable future. What do you anticipate happening in 2022?
