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."

The article also references that "the data supports it - the Texas coast's regional market analysis site: TexasGulfCoastOnline.com reports that the median price for a single-family beachside home is $160,000 on the Bolivar Peninsula and $230,000 in Port Aransas."

Clearly, the Texas coast's surge in popularity can easily be attributed to the still reasonable property prices and the state's robust economy, but builders and city officials also give credit to the coast's natural appeal.

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."

Specks on a Fly- “UBETCHA” by Ed Snyders
05 Dec 2011 Rolling out a cast to the grassy edge of the salt-marsh settled my streamer right on top of a swirl left by a feeding trout, when, after a few quick line jerks, the reaction for the action "imploded" on it bowing the fly rod to the fight of speckled silver.
