Fort Worth suburb seeing investment and development
As more new construction and development comes to the area, Echo Heights is a Fort Worth neighborhood on the rise. "There are a lot of renovations going on in that neighborhood," says Angie Graham, a local Realtor with Century 21 who has been selling homes in the Dallas-Fort Worth area for 15 years. The suburban neighborhood is coveted for its convenience, being less than 10 miles from Downtown and about 11 miles from Central Arlington. Industrial development has worked its way into Echo Heights, but the community maintains its small-town charm. "It's an established part of Fort Worth,” she says. People know the name. It's an area known for its stability, so money is being thrown into it to bring it back to what it was 20 years ago."

Mid-century ranch-styles and new construction homes
The location and HOA-free suburbs are among the main draws to the neighborhood. "The City of Fort Worth has put a lot of money into that neighborhood, so it's a good area for investors in particular," Graham says. Mid-century brick and vinyl ranch-style homes are still common along the streets, with some newer constructions and bi-level houses. Prices typically range from around $120,000 for an investment property to about $355,000 for a house built in the 2020s. The east side of the neighborhood has Willow Springs – a manufactured home community – and industrial buildings. A manufactured home usually goes for under $90,000.
