It’s twins — and they’re holding their ground as new townhomes morph up the Darling block east of T. C. Jester in Cottage Grove, near Detering. This new listing pegs the double-dip property at $149,999, leaving its future use to the buyer.

The 2-bedroom cottages are 490 sq. ft. each and share a 5,350-sq.-ft. lot. They’re occupied, the listing says, so a drive-by tour is the only option. Meanwhile, right next door is what appears to be a third lookalike home that’s slightly larger, separately owned, and not for sale. Still, the family genes are strong for the set-of-triplets presence on the multi-unit-minded block.

“occupied” means residents don’t speak English and will shoot if you try to get indoors.
I can say this because I own a house in the neighborhood just a few blocks away.
Positive note: All the new townhomes and patio homes have driven down the gun shots in the hood (especially on the holidays).
Come on… where are the Keep Houston Old and Ugly people saying that this stuff should be restored and preserved… Knock It Down!!
$140,000 seals the deal. It’ll take $180,000/unit to get the ideal SF and layout down, puts a developer in the deal @ $250,000 per house.
Needs to be at least $40,000 in profit to make it go, and $290,000 is about the ceiling there for exit.
This ain’t charity, you know…
