La Porte gives you more space for the money than most of our area. Under $250,000, many homes here have 3 or 4 bedrooms and close to 1,500 square feet, and you are a short drive from Galveston Bay, Sylvan Beach Park and the San Jacinto Battleground.

Much of what you will find at this price is in the subdivisions built near Fairmont Parkway and Spencer Highway in the 1970s and 1980s, such as Fairmont Park West, Fairmont Park East, Brookglen, Meadowcrest and Spenwick Place. These neighborhoods have brick homes, attached garages and larger floor plans than older parts of Houston. Closer to the bay, the original La Porte street grid and Bay Oaks have older and smaller homes, some at the lowest prices in the city.

La Porte ISD serves the city, and Highways 146 and 225 connect you to the Port of Houston terminals, Baytown, Pasadena and Clear Lake.

Good to Know Before You Buy

  • Get insurance quotes early. Homes closer to the bay can need separate flood and windstorm coverage, which affects your monthly payment.
  • Check the flood zone and ask about past flooding for every home before you make an offer.
  • Look at the age of the roof and A/C. Many 1970s and 1980s homes are due for one or both, and that can be a point to negotiate.
