If you fear your teens will be driving and texting, there’s an app for that! DRIVEMODE by AT&T can prevent texting while driving because as soon as the car reaches 25 MPH teh app sends an auto-reply-message letting people who text them know the teen is behind the wheel and they will get a text back when it’s safe! To download this cool feature go to att.com/drivemode. Make sure you get your teens to watch the video “The Last Text.” It’s a documentary on the website. I love it!

What is Generation Park? An Industrial Park? An Office Park? A Medical Center? A Master Planned Community?

I had the opportunity to sit down with Ryan McCord of McCord Development. He is the President of Generation Park and he explained that it will be a master planned business park.

Located off of Beltway 8, Generation Park will be the new energy epicenter. It’s not exactly like the current energy corridor, though. Generation Park will offer office space, retail space, medical facilities, hotels and much more. Companies will range from small start ups to large mega companies.

Generation Park is less than 30 miles to downtown, close to both the ship channel and Houston’s Intercontinental Airport. It will offer a nearby rail line.

Some of the communities close to Generation Park are Fall Creek, the Shores of Lake Houston, Kingwood, and Summerwood. It is likely that most of the employees families will attend school in Humble ISD.

Houston has been known throughout the world as the Energy Capital, but it’s not all about the large oil and gas companies. Those companies have huge financial needs and legal needs that will be strategically located inside Generation Park. Other companies will meet the needs of the employees. You’ll likely see everything from dry cleaners to coffee shops and daycare centers at Generation Park. Recreation like golf courses and boating are located close by.

Currently building infrastructure, Generation Park is a new concept that will offer wooded areas and bike trails and be a place where employees want to come to work.

Here is this week’s “Real Estate Rundown” on Michael Garfield’s “World According to Garf” on KPRC AM950 and iHeartRadio. These segments are each Friday at 12:50. We talk real estate and preview this Sunday’s Houston Real Estate Radio.

The new energy epicenter is in northwest Houston. There are many companies moving their headquarters to this area of town. ExxonMobil is the largest. The new Exxon campus is being built between Spring and The Woodlands. Exxon has advised their employees in Fairfax, Virginia to put their current homes up for sale this June 2013. They are planning to open the first section of the new campus in early-mid 2014 which is when the majority of the Exxon buyers will be purchasing homes in the Spring and Woodlands areas. If you are interested in selling your current Spring or Woodlands home please call me today to get started with the home selling process. If you are a buyer, we can help you find that dream home in this area. Call 281.288.3500 for more information. We have Realtors that can assist you with all of your real estate needs.
