The October Texas Real Estate Center Report

The Tierra Grande, published quarterly by the Texas Real Estate Center, is known as one of the most respected publications regarding real estate nationwide.

In the October-December issue, editor Bryan Pope discusses life on the Texas coast. The article mentions that "the Texas coast, a region that is finally catching th nation's attention after years of going virtually unnoticed, and a region that more than a few developers are now referring to as the last frontier in beach development."

Anne Willis, owner of Swede's Real Estate in Crystal Beach on the Bolivar Peninsula, said "it's great for the Bolivar Peninsula to finally be recognized."
