April saw several exciting things happening for us at Surge Homes. We unveiled the final exterior rendering of our Museum BLVD development, which you can read more about in the press release below, and we finished construction and closed on our first Upper Richton home. Wow! As if that wasn’t enough, we’re introducing our FUNdraising activities in conjunction with Cause We Can Dance and Covenant House Texas. Read on to learn more about what we’ve been up to during the month of April.

HOT OFF THE PRESS! HOUSTON HOME VALUES AND BUYERS’ TIPS
The Houston Chronicle publishes its much-anticipated Home Price Survey each April, which is designed to show price trends by neighborhood. This year’s issue shows a healthy real estate market without price inflation, which means good purchasing opportunities for purchasers. Available today, the survey is part of a more comprehensive Home Buyers Guide offering readers useful information such as: where to find luxury properties; choosing the right realtor; how much home you can afford; credit score and mortgages; outdoor spaces; and hot trends. See coverage of Surge Homes in the guide.
SURGE HOMES CELEBRATES FIRST CLOSING AT UPPER RICHTON
In 2017, Surge Homes will hand over the keys to more than 80 homebuyers and the process has started! Members of the Surge Homes team (pictured second from left, David Ke, buyer's realtor) delivered the first townhome in our Upper Richton development Friday, April 28 and we couldn’t be more excited! Located in the Upper Kirby District, Upper Richton is the first community to deliver for Surge Homes, whose leadership team brings more than 28 years of experience in residential real estate development to Houston’s Inner Loop market. More homes in this luxury development will be delivered in the coming weeks. If you’d like to learn more about these designer homes, please contact Caroline or Stefanie at 832-509-2222 or schedule an appointment.
SURGE HOMES DEBUTS 'FUN'DRAISING ACTIVITIES
At Surge Homes, we aspire to build communities not just homes. And to be a true community builder, it is our belief that we should care not only about our valued clientele but also about those less privileged Houstonians who don’t have a place to call home.
To that end, we choose to support Covenant House Texas, which dedicates itself to providing shelter for and changing the lives of homeless youth in our city. Surge Homes is making an ongoing commitment to giving a hand to the homeless and helping them become a contributing member of society and live a safe, secure and fulfilling life.
We’re doing this through a variety of “FUNdraisers” and investment of resources. A team endeavor, all members of the Surge Homes family have committed time and effort. This goal inspired us to sponsor the launch of Cause We Can Dance, a series of charitable activities starting May 6.

CONSTRUCTION MATTERS
Special delivery! The first townhome at Upper Richton closed Friday, April 28. We continue making great strides at both developments.
Our Upper Richton construction team is delivering homes! May will see additional closings on the first six homes while work continues on the next three homes. The installation of cabinets and countertops will take place in May and completion is expected for June.
Parc at Midtown construction crews are finishing the trim and cabinet installation in the townhomes. Completion of the drywall phase for The Hadley Building is expected in May and the team also will begin installing trim and cabinetry. Installation of windows, doors and roofing will be finished in May for the McGowen Building and teams will begin the mechanical rough stage, which includes installation of plumbing, electric, and heat, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) components.
