Relocating to the Rio Grande Valley?
Welcome (Bienvenido)

Relocations can be very stressful, but with proper planning the move will be smoother.

I have first hand experience as a "relo". After a twenty-year absence, I returned (relocated) to the Valley. In 1984, I graduated from high school in Brownsville and left for the University of Texas at Austin. During the 1990's, I worked for international corporations that operated in the Valley, Mexico, and South America, but lived in Dallas. After becoming Director of Finance for a national homebuilder in the Rio Grande Valley, I sold my house in Dallas and built a new one in Edinburg, Texas.

The right agent can make the move much easier!

Please feel free to explore this website and learn more about "the Valley". Within the city pages, we included a section for local schools. Every year, the Texas Education Agency evaluates every school in the state and assigns a rating based on student performance on a standardized test.

Exemplary is the highest rating. Fourteen elementary schools in the area have achieved this status (eight in Edinburg, three in McAllen and three in Mission). We sorted the MLS database by these Elementary Schools. This may help narrow your search from the entire city to specific neighborhoods.

Some of the best articles on Relocation are at RealEstateJournal.com. Below we have included links to four excellent articles:
