Austin Street Names - Does a Politically Incorrect Street Name Influence House Value?
We are in the process of buying some lots in Oak Hill with a few other buyers but they do not like the name of the street and want the developer to have it changed.

A space that is dedicated not to be urbanized. One of those kind of sceneries one can observe in photos, the scenery of pure Texas Hill Country that you imagine admiring them while sitting on a rocking chair at the back of the veranda or on a swing. It really beats the heck out of staring at a neighbor's house. But whoever built the house really did blow it.
