I’m at risk here of starting this thread in the wrong place, but I figured this may be as good as any. Looking for some advice on some different areas on the edges of Houston proper… currently own my house in oak forest but with a growing family, I want a bigger house that’s not stupid budget-wise. We like some parts of Jersey village-ish (5-7 min up 290 from us currently) both inside and right outside the beltway. We have some friends about to move clear lake so I looked that up and was astonished to see I could get the same amount of house plus a pool for 200k less or so. I work downtown so basically anything more than 10 min outside the beltway is a no-go, but do any of y’all that are fr clear lake or other fairly close, comparable suburbs have any input? 550k is about max what I’d want fo spend but seeing the same thing (or better) for under 400k is awfully tempting.
Just trying to really work a pros and cons list outside of the obvious
