Fairview Homes provides quick access to an interstate and retail

Fairview Homes consists of houses and condo communities tucked between the shopping centers lining West Gate City Boulevard and the high-speed lanes of Interstate 40. In a matter of minutes, residents can trade in the surroundings of tree-shaded lawns for a Vietnamese deli or the illuminated glass storefronts of a shopping mall. Plus, Interstate 40 and other roadways make it straightforward to travel around the region from this section of southwestern Greensboro.

Fairview Homes' prices stand out to first-time buyers

Rows of ranch-style and minimal traditional homes are interspersed with apartment complexes and tree thickets. There haven't been any recent single-family home sales, but the median price is in the lower $100,000s, much lower than Greensboro's median single-family home price. “This makes Fairview Homes popular with first-time buyers and investors," says Vickie Henry, a Realtor with Zenith Real Estate Connections. Fairview Homes also has condo communities, where units typically sell in the lower $100,000s.
