    Love This Listing

    Adorable Lakewood home's price puts the low in bungalow

    Diana Oates

    The two-bedroom, one-bathroom bungalow at 6404 Goliad Ave. in Lakewood is just waiting for someone to snatch it up. In addition to being priced just right — $275,000 — this listing boasts an impeccable location.

    You can walk to Whole Foods for your groceries, Times Ten Cellars for happy hour, and Scalini's for a delicious Italian meal. And, oh darn, you also have to walk past Paciugo to get home.

    Ideal location aside, the home has stellar bones. Although small, measuring in at just 1,196 square feet, the layout accommodates all the essential living spaces. There is an eat-in kitchen as well as a dining room, plus a living room with a functioning fireplace.

    If buyers have a little extra cash to spend after taking this gem off the market, it wouldn't take much more than a coat of paint here and an interior redesign there to make this place Pinterest-worthy in no time.

    With the expensive upgrades taken care of — wood floors, stainless steel appliances, granite tile counters, tumbled marble backsplash, carpet, windows — everything else seems to be a quick fix. Other not-so-sexy, but very important, improvements include a new roof, HVAC system, exterior paint, siding, and trim.

    Market prices in this area might make you think this listing, from Brandon Fleeman at Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate, is too good to be true. And while the corner lot sits next to busy Abrams Road, the chance to get into the lauded Lakewood Elementary school district more than makes up for it.

    The property only has one bathroom, but it has been updated.

    Dallas-Fort Worth booms as No. 1 metro for new homes being built in U.S.

    Driven by population growth, nation-leading numbers of residential rooftops are popping up across Dallas-Fort Worth and the rest of Texas.

    Using data from the U.S. Census Bureau and Zillow, Construction Coverage found 71,788 new residential units were authorized in DFW in 2024. That figure landed DFW in first place among major metro areas for the total number of housing permits, including those for single-family homes, apartments, and condos.

    Right behind DFW was the Houston metro area in second place, where 65,747 residential permits were approved in 2024. In third place was the country’s largest metro, New York City (57,929 permits).

    Elsewhere in Texas, the Austin metro ranked sixth (32,294 permits), and the San Antonio metro ranked 20th (14,857 permits).

    Construction Coverage also sorted major metro areas based on the number of new housing units authorized per 1,000 existing homes in 2024. Raleigh, North Carolina, held the No. 1 spot (28.8 permits per 1,000 existing homes), followed by Austin at No. 2 (28.6), DFW at No. 3 (22.2), Houston at No. 4 (21.6), and San Antonio at No. 13 (13.6).

    A Newsweek analysis of Census Bureau data shows building permits for 225,756 new residential units were approved in 2024 in Texas — a trend fueled largely by activity in DFW, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio. That put Texas atop the list of states building the most residential units for the year.

    Through the first eight months of last year, 145,901 permits for new residential units were approved in Texas, according to Census Bureau data. That’s nearly 80,000 permits shy of the 2024 total.

    Among the states, Construction Coverage ranks Texas sixth for the number of residential building permits approved in 2024 per 1,000 existing homes (17.9).

    Extra housing is being built in Texas to meet demand spurred by population growth. From April 2020 to July 2024, the state’s population increased 7.3 percent, the Census Bureau says.

    While builders are busy constructing new housing in Texas, they’re not necessarily profiting a lot from homebuilding activity.

    “Market conditions remain challenging, with two-thirds of builders reporting they are offering incentives to move buyers off the fence,” North Carolina homebuilder Buddy Hughes, chairman of the National Association of Home Builders, said in a December news release. “Meanwhile, builders are contending with rising material and labor prices, as tariffs are having serious repercussions on construction costs.”
