    Fun on the Fourth

    Dave Perry-Miller & Associates present the Park Cities 4th of July Parade

    The Park Cities Fourth of July Parade is a popular event for residents of Highland Park, University Park and surrounding areas. It’s so popular, in fact, that the event’s sponsor, Rotary Club of Park Cities, expects the event to draw more than 13,000 people.

     

    Everyone’s invited to participate in the parade on bike, motorcycle, go-cart or float. Vehicles queue up along Euclid Avenue near Highland Park’s Town Hall, and the parade culminates in a festival at Goar Park, which is located next to University Park’s City Hall.

     

    Dave Perry-Miller & Associates will be at the festival handing out ice-cold lemonade. One of the firm’s affiliates, The Rhodes Group, will host watermelon-eating contests, so come hungry. The party at Goar Park includes food, drink, music, entertainment and plenty of family fun.

     

    There are myriad stunning homes within walking distance of the parade route, and Dave Perry-Miller represents several that shouldn’t be missed. Here are a few of our favorites:

     

     3708 Harvard Ave. is located across from Dyckman Park. This spacious 7,375-square-foot traditional home features five bedrooms, eight baths, gourmet kitchen, wine cellar, screened rear loggia with fireplace and kitchen, master bedroom with outdoor balcony, three home office areas, music room, and nearly any amenity today’s family could want.

     

    Three blocks east of the Beverly-Lakeside intersection is 3825 Stratford Ave., a 7,389-square-foot Roman villa with an open floor plan that overlooks landscaped verandas. Other amenities include gourmet chef’s kitchen, coffee bar, paneled library, wine room and an elevator.

     

    Just one block northeast of Goar Park is 6810 Turtle Creek Blvd., an ultra-spacious traditional home with landscaped grounds, all-white gourmet kitchen, home offices, loggia with outdoor kitchen and abundant natural light.

     

    Come on out to the Park Cities area on July 4, and join your neighbors in celebrating America’s independence. Parade participants line up at 7:30 am; bicycle judging starts at 8. The official parade start time is 9 am, culminating in the free family festival in Goar Park at 9:30. Complete details are available here.

    millennial movers

    More millennials bought homes in Dallas than nearly any other metro in 2024

    More than 26,000 adults aged 25-44 bought homes in San Antonio-New Braunfels last year.

    Dallas is turning into a haven for millennial homebuyers, a new SmartAsset housing study has found. Nearly 56,000 millennials purchased homes in the Metroplex in 2024.

    The report, "Where Millennials Are Buying Homes – 2025 Study," analyzed mortgage origination data across 41 of the largest U.S. metros, ranking them based on the percentage of local people aged 25-44 who purchased a home in 2024. As a note, the study only observed conventional mortgages and not FHA, USDA, or VA loans.

    The study found Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington had the second-highest number of millennial homebuyers in the U.S. last year, with a total 55,732 mortgages originated in the metro.

    That's about 6,100 fewer mortgages than Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, which had the No. 1 highest rate of millennial home purchases nationwide in 2024, adding up to 61,826 mortgages.

    The median property value of a DFW home purchased by a millennial in 2024 came out to $455,000, and the median income of a millennial homeowner was $142,000, according to the report.

    Millennial Dallasites already dread being locked in as renters for the rest of their lives, and one surprising statistic found in the report backs up that fear: Only 2.33 percent of all DFW millennials bought homes last year. Furthermore, Dallas-Fort Worth placed 30th in the report's overall ranking of U.S. metros with the highest percentage of millennials who purchased homes in 2024.

    For additional context, the No. 1-ranking metro was Raleigh-Cary, North Carolina with 4.5 percent of local millennials securing a mortgage last year. However, that percentage only represented 19,735 mortgages originated in 2024.

    SmartAsset said U.S. metros with a high rate of millennial homebuyers may show desirability within the area's job market, housing market, and its local economy.

    "In some places, 1 in every 25 residents between the ages of 25 and 44 purchased a home with a conventional mortgage just in 2024 alone," the study said. "In other major metros, less than 1 in 100 Millennial-aged residents last year. This disparity can cause divergent implications for local infrastructure, politics, and business demand among different metros."

    Here's how many mortgages that were secured by millennials in Texas' other major metros in 2024:

    • Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands – 61,826 mortgages
    • Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos – 27,196 mortgages
    • San Antonio-New Braunfels – 26,337 mortgages
