A home in Belmont could be considered a package deal. Houses across this eclectic Midland neighborhood blend convenience with accessibility. “Definitely pricing,” says local Realtor Holly Cohen, describing Belmont’s appeal. “Plus they have built a lot of new shopping in that area, like within the last 10 years. So there’s access to retail and restaurants very near that area. Access to the highways so that you can get to and from Odessa, Big Springs, Stanton, Andrews, Monahans, all of the nearby cities."
In Belmont, a convenient location can give buyers bang for their buck.

A mix of options at a lower price point
Belmont’s collection of houses was mostly built from the early to late 20th century. Options range from single-story bungalow-style homes to manufactured homes. Many houses here are in the 1,000-square-foot range and come with compact lots, often around one-fifth of an acre. Sidewalks cut in front of many of the neighborhood’s properties, making it easier to get around. Sale prices in Belmont are between $100,000 and $250,000, Cohen says, but she adds that there aren’t many listings that top $200,000. “It’s an older neighborhood,” says Lisa Jansa, a local Realtor with Keller Williams Realty and a Midland native. “Lots of families over there.”

Halff Park has much to offer
The 2-acre Halff Park anchors Belmont’s northeast corner. This space features not just a playground, soccer field and basketball courts, but is also home of a Boys & Girls Club of Midland location. “I think it’s very much utilized by a lot of Midlanders,” says Cohen, of Holly Realtors. “I think it’s a necessity for our local youth.” The club offers afterschool programming and a Saturday program for teens.

Retail is routine here
The area just off I-20 and Rankin Highway is loaded with places to eat and other businesses, from Tractor Supply to Walmart. Some of these spots are within walking distance for people in Belmont. “I know people who live over there and Walmart’s a daily or weekly stop,” says Cohen, who has almost two decades of real estate experience. “Plus all of the restaurants that are there are fabulous.” The list of options here includes lots of great Mexican restaurants, Cohen says. La Loncheria & Tortilleria is well-liked for its burritos and the Chevere food truck, a handful of blocks away, is known for churros and Mexican street corn. There’s also a location of the chain Rosa's Café & Tortilla Factory here, which Cohen says is popular citywide. “I love Rosa’s,” Cohen says.
