Cross Creek West - Fulshear Ranks as One of Area’s Hottest Markets

The Houston housing market continues to be one of the nation’s best, but people in the know are seeing a shift in the habits of home buyers as they continue to look farther away from the city center.

In fact, the Houston Association of Realtors recently ranked the “hottest” market areas based on third-quarter home sales and nine out of the top 10 were in the suburbs. Ranked at No. 6 on the list is greater Fulshear.

We’re not surprised.

The association specifically lists Cross Creek West as a reason for the region’s success, which saw sales up 46 percent from the second quarter and an average sales price of $489,212, which was down 3 percent from the previous quarter.

Buyers looking for larger homes can chat with representatives from Perry Homes and Westin Homes — which also offer floor plans for 55-foot homesites — as well as Village Builders and Highland Homes, which have designs for 60-foot lots. A multitude of options — including multi-generational suites — allow buyers to customize their homes to meet their specific needs.
