The only skeleton revealed during the award-winning renova-tion of a 1920s bungalow in Sunset Heights was the eight-inch skeleton key that came with the property when Ellie and Chris-tian Busker of Renovative Thinking began their project.

Its completion earned a 2015 Good Brick Award from Preser-vation Houston, which honored recipients at The Cornerstone Dinner on Feb. 20.

Seasoned renovators, the Buskers’ complementary skills cov-er redesign and rebuild of older homes, transforming them into light-filled, highly functioning open spaces that are suitable for modern living, but mindful of their place and period.

“We can kind of walk in and think the same thing,” Christian Busker said of their walking through a potential property.

An architectural designer and space planner, Ellie Busker gravitates toward homes with smaller footprints and strives to maximize every inch. She dislikes wasted space and thinks ef-ficient floor plans can encourage tidy use.

For her husband, who had learned carpentry from his father and grandfathers, home renovations had long beckoned.

Once pursued part-time, home renovations became the cou-ple’s business in 2007. Since then, they’ve transformed 18 homes in neighborhoods in and around Houston Heights, Brooke Smith and Sunset Heights. Their current project, number 19, is in Lin-dale Park.

By living in these little homes along the way, she said, they get to know the communities, the housing market -- and the house itself.

“We build a home for ourselves every time,” he said.

Aspiring to the White HouseSince the Buskers had lived and worked up the street from the

bungalow in Sunset Heights – the 2015 Good Brick Award win-ner – it was a special property to them.

They had noticed its simplicity, charm and nearly-untouched condition. Older than other homes on the street, it had an in-triguing carriage-era garage with marooned quarters, its exterior staircase long gone.

“I have a thing for peeling paint on white houses,” she said.This one, acquired after waiting five years for it to be available,

they called “The White House.”Among the pleasant surprises within its near-original interior:

cheesecloth wallpaper over shiplap walls.“Usually, we have to take off the ‘ugly’,” she said. There were

no layers of previous updates to peel back.The 2013 project kicked off by moving the porch-entry house

eight feet to the west to make room for a permeable driveway scaled to today’s vehicles.

The scope added 459 sq. ft. to the home for a master suite and laundry room off a short new hallway at the back of the former two-bedroom, one-bath floor plan. Single-story, the ad-dition can’t be seen from the street and blends into the back, a seamlessness the Buskers strive to achieve in all their projects.

A small attic dormer facing the street, meanwhile, gives the illusion of height, she said, since newer and remodeled homes nearby trend taller.

The renovated home reused original doors, flooring and hard-ware when possible and was patched with reclaimed materials as merited.

While initially an iffy undertaking, he said, the two-story ga-rage and its quarters proved salvageable. That effort lifted the building, poured a slab floor and deepened the structure to house a car vs. a carriage, and it restored the still-intact quarters up-stairs.

Among the challenges of any renovation, the Buskers said, are making new space look as if it were always there and having it function correctly for the room flow and sight lines.

An example: “You don’t want to have to walk through the mas-

ter bedroom to get to the yard,” she said.“Sometimes, you have to flip the house,” he said, though not in

the case in their award-winning project. The project held few surprises, she said, except for some

pleasant ones, like the skeleton key.It, too, has been restored for use by the current owner.

The Do-Over: How passion became a profession

Will it ever lease?

In this month’s issue of will it ever lease, the an-swer is undoubtedly yes – but not yet. The 6,250 square foot space in the Garden Oaks Shopping Cen-ter has been available for about six months according to Hartman (Hi-Reit) leasing agent Danny Morales. He says it used to be a flooring company but could be a restaurant. Morales also says it could be subdivided down to 2,500 square feet. He said there has been a lot of interest so far, but no firm offers yet. According to Morales, rates have risen a bit to get parity with other retail spaces in the area. Neighbors would in-clude Brothers Pizza and LV Nails. Interested? Call 713-467-2222 for leasing rates.

Parking pads, drainage issues draw ire of some Heights homeowners

By Jonathan [email protected]

A number of homeowners in the Heights say they are grow-ing tired of impassable sidewalks and flooding roads, particularly because they say it’s happening due to the construction in public right of ways that isn’t allowed under Houston ordinances.

Some residents are taking their frustrations to the next level and have been phoning in these alleged violations to the Houston Public Works Department. One 38-year resident of the Heights, who asked only to be named as John, said he is growing tired of what he and other neighbors perceive as unpermitted construc-tion in the public right of way.

“We have a number of situations where people have filled in ditches in front of their yards and, in some cases, put in culverts,” John said. “There are a lot of these non-compliant culverts in the Heights that don’t meet the minimum culvert requirement.”

What does this type of construction mean for some? John said it creates a domino effect, where one person’s filled ditches contribute to flooding a neighboring home’s lawn and sidewalks. That next door neighbor then might try to fill in their own ditches or perform some other type of small construction, which he al-leges is making headaches for surrounding residents.

“When people look out and see there is a lake in front of their home, they’ll try to fill in some of the ditches or get rid of the lake, but all it does is move the water to another lawn,” John said.

Others are also frustrated by what they see as non-compliant driveways and other modifications, like extra-wide driveways.

“City regulations require minimum spacing between drive-ways of twenty feet,” John said. “There is no way some of these driveways should be permitted, but the city is allowing them to

Question:With oil prices being what they are

today, do you, as a Real Estate profes-sional, think the local housing market is going to be affected? If so, how will it be affected and what, if anything, do you think can be done to change

the end result?

“As a Real Estate pro-fessional in the market everyday, I think oil prices do determine the stability of the market some. How-ever, the vast majority of recent layoffs from major oil companies are not even in Houston. I believe that most of the opinion about markets is based largely on media cover-age and their misguided interpretation of what the Real Estate market is today here in Houston. There are plenty of buyers in the market and inven-tory is still very low. That is an indication of a still very healthy market. Buy-ers are not afraid to buy homes and sellers should not be afraid to sell their home. Real Estate is an investment and is always a safe asset. Oil prices will go back up, this is inevi-table. One of my favorite quotes is “Buy when ev-erybody is afraid and sell when everyone is not.” Please feel free to call or email me for a consulta-tion at (832) 868-9453 or [email protected] I would be happy to let you know what your home is worth today at no cost or obligation.”

-Leann Salmons, Broker Associate, Martha Turner Sotheby’s International

“Boy, do I wish I had a crystal ball! There’s been a lot of information pub-lished recently regarding the impact of oil prices on real estate, so here’s my opinion based on what I’ve read and experienced.

Activity is starting to pick up after the holiday season and with a few spring like days that help to get folks thinking about buying and selling again. With a little extra jingle in their pockets, more first time home buyers may decide to enter the market. There’s a lot of pent up demand in the savvy younger generation and they are ready to invest in a home. Overall inventory remains low and this will keep prices from declin-ing considerably. Prime properties will continue to receive multiple offers, however I think buyers will be more cautious in their willingness to offer substantially over the list price to secure a con-tract (partially due to the economy/oil prices). The higher end market usually experiences longer days on the market and may be a little sluggish until later this year. So overall I think we’ll see a slow down until Spring and

then, unless oil prices continue downward, activity will be robust. Real estate continues to be a good investment and considered less risky than stocks, so our investors will still be out there. Over the next 2 years pre-dictions are that the real estate market will return to normal, where neither the buyer nor seller have an unrealistic advantage. Oil prices retreating from the $100/barrel range will be a factor. Maybe normal and realistic are a good thing?

It’s important to find a realtor who is more than a facilitator in your real estate transaction. Clients need and deserve an agent who will be both their counselor and negotiator. Choosing the right realtor can really make a difference. Select someone who offers the full package of services and will help make your experience as stress free as possible. I’d love the opportunity to share my service package with you.”

BROKEN HEARTS

BROKEN PROMISES

By Betsy [email protected]

There are not many one-acre properties left for purchase in the Garden Oaks area. That’s one of the things that makes the house at 738 West 43rd Street so unique. The other is that the grand house, with six bedrooms and four full bath-rooms, has been unlived in for five years and has become a shadow of its former self. As of 2014, it is bank owned. The property is currently being of-fered at online auction by Star Crest Realty.

Originally built by Arnold and Ophelia Quintero for them and their children in the late 1970s, the 5,000-plus square foot has marble floors – includ-ing a marble walk in bath – as well as a wet bar upstairs and downstairs and an inground pool among other amenities. It was a house made for enter-taining.

Later, ownership of the house passed to a daughter and various other family mem-bers made their home there. In recent years, there was a bor-der who rented space at the house. Relatives who lost their homes in Hurricane Katrina were also able to take refuge there until they could rebuild and return to New Orleans. However the house has been uninhabited since 2010.

The tax bill for the house in 2014, the year it passed to The Bank of New York Mellon, was $23,099. HCAD currently val-ues the land at $591,231 and improvements at $307,369, for a total of $898,000.

The HCAD evaluation is higher for 738 W. 43rd than it is for some of the nearby homes in much better shape on simi-lar acreage. The HCAD record

shows there is no homestead exemption for the property so property taxes have never been capped.

That explains another anomaly for a home in fore-closure – according to Star Crest Realty’s listing agent Chase Robinson, the bank is asking $826,000 for the prop-erty, down from $856,000 in a previous auction. Many who have seen the house in its cur-rent state say that is too high a price for the house and will impede its sale.

Kirk Carver is an area resi-dent who recently was inter-ested in a possible purchase.

“We couldn’t get inside,” he said. “The key broke off in the lock. Looking through the win-dows you could see rain pour-ing in from the second floor on that day. We put on waders and walked the lot, but then

left when a small pack of feral dogs emerged from the back of the house. In my opinion they’re asking far too much for it even factoring in lot size.”

Neighbor Brenda de Alba said that thieves broke in and stole the copper wiring long ago. Robinson said that when the bank contracted with Star Crest to market the property, they came to clean it out.

“We had roped it off and chained the door,” he said. “We wanted to make it safe first.”

At the time Star Crest stepped in last year there was still furniture in the house as well as cabinets with dishware, china, crystal and numerous other items. Brenda de Alba remembers a “gorgeous, huge chandelier” but said it is no longer there.

There is some question

about the integrity of the roof as well. Robinson said it is still intact but it is the skylights that are leaking. At a recent open house that Star Crest conducted, the second story was inaccessible due to safety concerns.

The price of the West 43rd Street house is a far cry from Star Crest Realty’s other fore-closure in the area which is valued at $20,000. The auction for the W. 43rd Street house can currently be found at ho-mesearch.com. The high bid at the current time is in the $200,000 range. According to Robinson, this is not the first time the house has been of-fered for auction, and although a bid does not need to come in at $826,000, it needs to meet the reserve, or benchmark, that the bank has set.

“The lien holder is the only person who knows what it is,” he said. “We’ve gotten a bid in the $600,000 range before and that hasn’t met it.”

Robinson said they don’t get many properties over an acre and the land in Garden Oaks has a lot of value.

“I think it’s a 50/50 shot, whether someone will reno-vate it or tear it down,” he said.

The current online auction is over on Feb. 27. If the house does not sell, it will be offered again online in 2 to 3 weeks.

stay.”Another long-time resident

of the Heights, who also asked not to be named, said she has similar issues with parking pads, or areas of enclosed gravel on the side of the road intended for vehicles to park in. While much smaller than an average driveway, these pads all negatively affect drainage in the area.

In areas like E. 10th Street, she says much of the stand-ing water during summer rains makes it a nightmare to just go for a stroll.

“Because of the drainage issues, the mosquitos become unbearable,” she said.

She also questioned wheth-er cohesiveness is being main-tained in the neighborhood regarding its look and feel.

“They end up being kind of ugly because of all of the gravel and [the parking pads] are up and down all over some of our streets,” she said.

While some of the drainage modifications and, in some cases, decorations, occasion-ally receive a red tag for viola-tions, PWE Public Information Officer Alvin Wright said each situation is handled on a case-by-case basis by city engi-neers. Many of these changes have actually been approved, Wright said.

“It’s not a new occurrence in that area of Houston,” Wright said. “Most of the ones there have been inspected and reviewed and we saw that a number of them met the crite-ria we’ve established.”

However, John alleges that many of the modifications to property, like the driveways, exceeds the established crite-ria. He cites Sec. 40-86 of the city ordinances which states that each permit granted should specify the maximum width of the driveway open-ing and “such width shall be no greater than the minimum necessary to provide reason-able access.”

“Some of these driveways straddle the entire ditch line nearly four houses long,” John said.

However, Wright said that the same ordinance also es-tablishes that the city engineer shall make their determination as to whether the driveway ap-plied for meets city standards and provides reasonable ac-cess without causing traffic hazards or inconvenience to the public.

“If there are cases that war-rant maybe another inspec-tion, we’re more than happy to do that,” Wright said. “In the past, some of those folks were investigated and they received permits for what they were do-ing from our engineers.”

Basketball: Scarborough wins first playoff game

Never a demoThe property does have a

paper trail with the City’s De-partment of Neighborhoods whose purview includes neigh-borhood inspections and code enforcement to reduce blight and substandard residential property.

Department of Neighbor-hoods Public Information Officer Evangelina Vigil said that if any resident has a con-cern about a property they should call 3-1-1.

“It’s the best way to estab-lish protocol,” she said. “We can get the right division or divisions involved.”

In 2014, no trespassing signs were posted at 738 W. 43rd and the gate was locked. The file on the house was re-ferred for the first available legal review for “possible referral to Hearing”. At a hearing, the city’s legal de-partment evaluates whether a home is worthy of being on the demolition list, or to de-termine if the owner can be located. Even if a home is not put under the demolition cat-egory, the legal department can mark it as property that

needs to meet the standards for safety, allowing the city to step in and do so.

Assistant Director Landon Taylor said he has never seen a demolition property that was valued in the $800,000 range and indeed the W. 43rd house never ended up in that queue. The only property in 77018 or 77008 to currently be on the city’s demolition list is at 309 E 35th St.

Joseph Bowden with Con-stable Precinct 1 checks the W. 43rd Street house once a week and said that while he has concerns about the struc-tural integrity of the home, he has not seen any signs of vagrants living there.

Brenda de Alba said that once a new trustee came on board in August of 2014, things have improved. The front and back yards get mowed and the swimming pool has been boarded up. She hopes that a family will come in to buy the house, tear it down, and start over.

“If it’s bring marketed as a livable home, it’s a misrepre-sentation,” she said.

The varsity boys basketball team at Scarborough High School left with great fanfare and returned to even greater fanfare after the team won its first ever playoff game Tues-day night.

The Spartans defeated the La Grange Leopards with a final score of 68-64, a game which marked Scarborough’s first return to the playoffs in ten years. Before departing for Morton Ranch High School in Katy Tuesday morning, students gathered for a large sendoff for the team, com-plete with banners, music and plenty of cheers.

Coach Martin Wall said the sendoff helped set the tone for the game later that evening. Hunter Janacek had one of his finest games of the sea-son, Wall said, with 24 points and 13 rebounds. The same was true for Quinton Hudson who had 23 points during the game.

“I’m really happy for them,” Wall said of his team. “It was a bit of unfamiliar territory for us, along with [La Grange] having a style of play that was so much different than what we’re used to in our district.”

Wall said the Leopards had an offense that focused less on pressure and more on passing and play-making. That kind of structured offense is a bit different from the more ag-gressive style of play in their own district, but the Spartans responded well.

Emotions ran high as the final buzzer sounded and Wall said their own fans, who had come out in full force, stormed the court in a wild celebration.

“You could tell it was really something special for every-one,” Wall said.

While details have not been finalized for the next round, Wall said the team is enjoy-ing its victory and thanked the community for their support. The next game will likely be Feb. 27 against the Silsbee Ti-gers.
