East West Partners will be building townhouses soon (summer 2015) in Lowry. If you are interested in that please let me know I will put you on our presale list that will keep you informed as to what is happening. As soon as I can release details, I will write about them of course.

Let me know how I can help you with your real estate needs. If you are curious, you can set up and save a search by neighborhood, or by a price range and or other requirements right here on this site. Your searches will be private and will update you daily (or weekly) if there are any changes in your parameters. When you get serious about buying or selling, I’d love to talk to you and make a plan of action to get you where you want to be.

Best,
