After renting a couple of times now (up by Glenview and Sabel Chase area), we'll be looking primarily north of 466A (even though we know the bridges will go in soon) so was curious as to the price and demand in the older sections versus the new homes on the other side of the freeway.

All guesses appreciated.
Of course no one can predict the future, but I'm betting that prices are going up! A home near us was listed for $275K more than the selling price a year ago. Golf Course view and pool. It is now pending, but don't know the actual price. The house next door listed for ~$225 more than it sold for 1 year ago. Golf course view but no pool (has room). Both properties had a very significant increase...got my attention!
