College Hills Elementary
College Hills Elementary is one the many elementary schools in the Brazos Valley. I have two children currently attending, Hailey 9 and Hunter 7. They love the school and I am very impressed with the way the school is educating my children and wanted to share some information about the school so others will have a better idea of what College Station has to offer.
College Station Schools – College Hills Elementary
Houston Association of Realtors Stats
- Very diverse school community
- Very experienced staff that take pride in their role as educators and child developers
- Ranked 695 out of 3880 Texas Schools on School Digger
- This is their first year in their new facility which provides a very secure environment for all who attend and work at the school
- One of the lowest Student-Teacher ratio in the area
The campus is located very close to Thomas Park which is used quite frequently. The school uses it as a field trip for students to stretch their legs and give them a change of pace from their same day-to-day events.
So, when looking for a great school to send your elementary aged future Aggie, look close to the A&M campus in a small community called College Hills!

Upside Down Housing Market?!?!?!?
March 16th, 2010 categories: Community Events
Have you ever wondered if the market you live in is upside down or not? Well, here in Bryan/College Station, we are definitely not upside down!!
Thousands and thousands of people across the U.S. currently have an upside down mortgage. You are “upside down”, and have negative equity if the value of your home is less than what you owe on your mortgage. Bryan homes and College Station homes are appreciating every year, and we were not hit as hard as some markets when considering sales price and volume of homes sold. Our market has shown a 2% increase in home sold so far this year and property values are holding strong. Housing Stats click here!
What does that mean to buyers and sellers? Well, buyers can feel secure that the property they are purchasing is holding value and as the U.S. Housing Market recovers, their property will likely increase in value even more. Sellers can expect to be able to get a higher sales price for their home in a market that is gaining rather than a market that is declining.

More Bang for Your Buck

BRYAN, TX — Linda and Steve are looking forward to this year’s home buying season. They have prepared their house
Home owners recoup large percent of their initial cost on specific home improvements
according to HGTV’s Curb Appeal. Their REALTOR offered advice on which home improvements would bring the best bang for their buck. So when the young couple stepped up to the closing table Steve and Linda walked away with a profit in their pocket. Thanks to their sweat equity and the REALTOR’s remodeling knowledge the sellers recouped most of their monetary investment from the upgrades they performed. Which projects return the highest value for the cost?
Remodeling Magazine surveyed appraisers and REALTORS last summer on remodeling projects and the values that they hold in 80 markets. Home Tech Information Systems analyzed the data and factored in regional pricing differences. The results were published in the January 2010 REALTOR Magazine on page 21. There were three categories of home improvements – additions, remodeling and replacements. Read the rest of this entry »
