WHERE to buy in Dallas TX?



Question:



WHERE to buy in Dallas TX?

We are moving to Dallas TX from Ann Arbor MI. Looking for our next home…and that’s all we need:
1. Four Bedroom House, Price $300000-$350000
2. Exemplary Schools
3. Close to DFW Airport (15 mi radius)

We did some internet research and that’s all we found; there are 3 areas we may consider;
1. Southlake: Exemplary schools, BUT the price is too much for us.
2. Coppell: Only one High school but not exemplary, also new ‘Northlake’ development coming soon!! Nobody knows what will happen after new 4300 units built there.
3. Grapevine: Some area offers Carroll ISD but not sure about other schools.

ANY OTHER SUGGESTION? HAVE WE MISSED ANYTHING?

Answers:


Consider Corinth, TX - Excellent schools (Denton ISD), affordable housing, easy access to the airport (15-20 min on I35/SH121 and soon will be another bridge over the lake to take you to the airport via alt route)
Another option: Flower Mound, TX - closer to the aiport, excellent choice of homes, very close to brand new shopping centers, fitness - LA fitness, Lifetime fitness, upscale wal-mart. Airport 15 min away.

You most likely wont' locate a lot of home in Southlake for your price range, Yes to Coppell, and Grapevine, Flower Mound, Highland Village, Lantana.

I would doubt Colleyville for our price range.

WELCOME TO DALLAS !

Depending on type of schooling you desire, public or private, there are many additional options to consider. Plano, Double Oak, Richardson Canyon Creek, Frisco are all excellent areas to live within 15 miles to DFW are close to major highways such as George Bush Turnpike, Dallas North Tollway, Hwy 121
