Geographic Data
Based on the
zoning the neighborhood should never be taken over with student rentals. The
surrounding areas are zoned for single families to live there and need to be
taken before the city to be changed. It is very unlikely the zoning would
change based on the city’s comprehensive plan. The would not want to increase
zoning in this direction because the neighbors who take pride in where they
live would have an uproar about the things that go on associated with college
students. This house is also valued right in the median value for homes in the
third ward. It is on the higher end of the medium value, but this is skewed by
the northern part of the third ward which is student housing. For the size of
the house and the location this house is very reasonably priced around 260,000.
There are not many houses for sale in the third ward because it is such a good
neighborhood and people don’t leave there homes often.
