    Default Not a fishing post..Grapevine Area


    I'm doing my reasearch before moving to Texas in the somewhat near future. I'll be in the Grapevine Area. Any input on where to look for real estate within say 30 miles of Grapevine would be appreciated.

    Visited and camped there several times(our favorite campground ever"The Vineyards"). Very nice town. Great opry show on main st. 16 mile train ride to the Ft. Worth Stockyards(shopping, bbq). . Close to the airport. Nice lake. Great town with lot's to do. Very pretty around Christmas. Pricey real estate wise. I can't help about where to look, but pm RetiredRR. He lives in the area. Hope this helps even a little.We plan on visiting Grapevine this fall. Good luck.

    Thanks D. What we've found so far IS most of the good places have very pricey real estate but there are some deals around. Be working in grapevine if all works out. It's a far cry from N. MS for sure.

    I have a buddy that lives in Saginaw, it's a really nice place ( the houses are to close together). The lake Worth and marine Creek area are really nice too

    Traffic. Its all about the traffic.
    And HOA's. You don't want that.
    perhaps rent for 6 mos, year. figure out where you want to be, what traffic you can put up with.
    Grapevine, lake lewisville, Lake Ray roberts, all reasonably close if you go north, northeast.

    Hiways to avoid:

    360
    I-35
    183

    Might consider Carrollton, the east/west routes towards grapevine work out.
    If you want a long commute and live in the country a bit.... Krum, tx. Sanger,Tx

    I drive from Van Alstyne, to Coppell. an hours drive, plus tolls. like 40 bucks a week tolls. lol. But house prices are lower due to lower land cost.

    That will actually be the plan once there we won't be in a hurry. We will take our time. Euless was one place mentioned but looks like crime might be an issue. Colleyville, Southlake, and Hurst are a few were looking at as well. This is why I don't move often lol

    Hurst is like Euless in that respect, in my opinion.
