Retail and residential living in Westside
With a bustling shopping district just off Interstate 10 paired with peaceful suburban streets, residents of Remcon have just about everything they need right out their front doors. While the area’s homes are older than much of Westside El Paso, first-time homebuyers have gravitated to Remcon for its more affordable prices and convenience to local businesses. “It’s definitely a nicer area, the homes are from the early 1980s so it’s a little bit older,” says Patti Olivas, Associate Broker and Owner of Dan Olivas and Associates. “It could be a lot of first-time buyers since they’re a little more affordable than surrounding areas, and you get a little more of a yard since lot sizes have gotten smaller with the newer homes.”

Remcon’s older homes
Much of Remcon has a commercial character, especially in the southern portion of the neighborhood near Mesa Street. The area does have a residential component as well, with apartment complexes, smaller subdivisions of single-family homes and a planned townhouse development. The northern end of the neighborhood has more of a suburban feel, with brick ranchers and bi-level houses occupying quiet streets. Single-family homes start in the mid-$100,000s for a property in need of a little love and go up to the mid-$300,000s for a custom build. The area’s new townhomes near commercial centers sell closer to $400,000.
