Mallard Creek’s traffic dilemma grows

Mallard Creek is on the brink of big changes—nearly 200 more homes could soon be approved in an area already packed with cars. With over 600 new townhomes and apartments in the works, neighbors are worried about how much busier and riskier local roads could get. Some city council members are listening, but there’s still no rezoning vote on the calendar. For folks living nearby, what’s your take: Is more housing worth the added congestion, or is it time to hit pause until safety concerns are addressed? #RealEstate #MallardCreek #Charlotte

Why Kessler Highlands homes are so coveted

Kessler Highlands isn’t just about charming Tudor cottages—it’s about living in a neighborhood where history and character are protected. Thanks to its conservation district status, you won’t see oversized modern homes popping up next to classic bungalows. Each house here has its own story, and you can even dig up old newspaper clippings about your address in the Dallas Library archives! With great price points compared to nearby areas, plus walkable parks and entertainment, it’s easy to see why homes like the one on Stewart Dr. get snapped up fast. What do you value most in a neighborhood—history, style, or community? #RealEstate #DallasRealEstate #KesslerHighlands

LA’s mansion tax hits more than just the rich

Freddie Freeman just lost $2 million selling his LA home—thanks to a tax that’s hitting way more than just luxury mansions. Measure ULA, passed in 2022, slaps a 4% fee on any property sale over $5.3 million, even if you sell at a loss. It’s not just baseball stars or mega-mansions: apartment buildings, commercial spaces, and even damaged homes are getting caught up in this. Locals say it’s freezing the real estate market and stalling new housing projects. What do you think—does this tax help the city, or is it making things worse for everyone? #RealEstate #LosAngeles #MansionTax

Who can really afford Vineyard homes now?

Martha’s Vineyard home prices have soared to new heights, with the median sale price hitting nearly $1.7 million in 2025—a 30% jump since 2021. While realtors are celebrating a strong, stable market, year-round residents and first-time buyers are finding it harder than ever to break in. The market is now dominated by second-home buyers, and some locals worry this could change the Island’s character for good. With inventory low and demand high, homes are selling for well above their assessed value. Is this growth sustainable, and who is the Vineyard really for? #RealEstate #MarthasVineyard #HomePrices

Big changes coming to Atlanta’s Galleria area

Alliance Residential just snapped up the Homewood Suites by Hilton Atlanta-Galleria/Cumberland for $16.65 million and plans to replace it with 300 new apartments. That means the familiar hotel will soon give way to modern living spaces with a saltwater pool, fitness center, and more. The deal turned a quick profit for the previous owners, who bought it just 18 months ago. For locals, this could mean more housing options and a new look for the neighborhood. What do you think—will this upgrade help or hurt the area’s vibe? #Business #Atlanta #RealEstate

Homeowners: Is Now the Time to Tap Your Equity?

If you’ve been eyeing a big home project or need a chunk of cash, here’s your coffee break tip: home equity loan rates just hit their lowest since 2023. That means borrowing $60,000 could cost you about $576/month over 15 years—cheaper than last fall or winter! Plus, if you use the money for home upgrades, you might even score a tax break. Just remember, your house is on the line, so crunch those numbers before you dive in! #RealEstate #HomeEquity #MoneyHacks

Is 2025 Finally the Year to Buy a House?

Thinking about buying a home? 2025 brought a little relief: for the first time since 2020, homes actually got a bit more affordable. Prices still crept up, but slower than before, and lower mortgage rates plus bigger paychecks meant buyers spent less of their income on monthly payments. Midwest cities saw the biggest price jumps, while some Texas markets cooled off. If you’ve been waiting for a better time to buy, this might be your sign! #RealEstate #HomeBuying #RealEstateTips
