(IRVING, TX – July 13, 2008) – From the past to the present – Lakewood and East Dallas continue to draw people with history, heritage, exceptional living and numerous housing choices. Real estate options include beautifully preserved and renovated homes to new construction, thoughtfully blending into the neighborhood architecture, as well as new developments that appeal to a new generation of buyers. 
 
The real estate professionals with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage – Dallas/Fort Worth (CBDFW) work and live in this area and are available to offer clients their guidance to buy and sell historic and newer homes.
 
“Our sales professionals in the CBDFW Lakewood office provide exceptional service for all of East Dallas,” says Sue Meyer, president and chief operating officer of CBDFW. “The office leads in their market area and has some of the highest top producers in the company. 
 
An understanding of the heritage of the homes is crucial when practicing real estate in these areas. CBDFW Lakewood’s 60 agents and staff have sold the neighborhood for many years and have strong market knowledge and know East Dallas’ historic districts inside and out.
 
The Realtors point out that history and charm is what one will find when driving or walking the neighborhoods in Lakewood and East Dallas. Lakewood is adorned with rolling hills, tree-lined streets and a diversity of homes and architecture. There are traditional homes, tudors, prairie style, cottages, contemporary, Spanish, Mediterranean and new construction. Old East Dallas is best known for its historic neighborhoods including Swiss Avenue and the Munger Place Historic District. 
 
White Rock Lake is an urban oasis offering sweeping views of the lake, green spaces and downtown. Joggers and cyclists dot the landscape of paths and various parks. There is even the White Rock Lake Dog Park for people’s four legged friends.
 
“Lakewood and East Dallas offer so much for both families and professionals,” says Kathy Darrow, manager of the CBDFW Lakewood office. “The area is only minutes away from downtown Dallas. We thrive on helping people with their real estate needs and make it a focus to give back to the community.”
 
She notes particular strengths that have led to consistent success: the power of a team-oriented group of industry professionals, the location in the heart of Lakewood, and the popularity of historical neighborhoods. 
 
“Some of the major neighborhood selling points are, the central location, reasonably priced homes, the increasing popularity of architectural designs and the focus on preserving the integrity of our historic areas,” says Ms. Darrow.
 
The office is a major sponsor of the annual Lakewood Home Festival. Proceeds from the event raise money for Lakewood area schools. The Lakewood office of CBDFW also has given back through the “Friends of the Lake Shoreline Clean-Up”, where they helped clear the shores of White Rock Lake of litter.
