Two new Montrose properties – Welcome to the family!

Posted on by Cody

On February 1 we welcome two new properties to the Fat Property family: 4402 / 4410 Roseland and 1930 North Blvd.

4402 Roseland is a full block in Montrose (77006) with Oakley St. to the north, Woodrow St. to the south, and Kyle St. to the west. As well as Montrose Blvd just one block over. It consists of 4x 1 bedroom units and 18x 2 bedroom units. It was built back in 1955 and the units and exterior maintain most of that same older charm. Units start under $1000 a month — continuing our tradition of working to offer some of the lowest priced options in the best areas of the city.

1930 North Blvd is on one of the nicest streets in Houston, in the heart of the Rice University submarket (77098). It’s set back with a huge wide esplanade in front, mature oak trees all around, and some of the nicest walking ares the city has to offer. Plus off street parking and a huge courtyard that looks like it’s from a fairy tail. The property is nearly 80 years old and offers the rare opportunity to live affordably in one of the best spots in the city. The building has a few 1 bedrooms starting at under $1000 a month and huge 2 bedrooms starting at about $1,700 a month. If you’d like to check out either of these properties for lease, give our team a call at 832-640-4444. Open M-F, 9-5:30. Or email us at [email protected]

Don’t stop, the band is coming on
Rude boys and punks will shout along
Police cars bring cuffs and loaded guns
Kids scream, but laughing as they run

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Fat Property was busy busy busy in 2021, having bought over 400 units. Our largest year-over-year increase to date. The full 2021 recap will come soon. We wanted to use this post to update everyone with our holiday hours.

Our offices will be closed December 24th in observance of Christmas. Because New Years Day falls on a Saturday, all offices will be closed Saturday. However, all locations will be open business-as-usual Friday, December 31st 2021, and Monday, January 3rd, 2022 

Thanks to all our residents, employees, contractors, partners, lenders, vendors, family and friends that made this year possible. And here’s to an even better 2022!

Happy Columbus Day!

Christopher Columbus is sometimes credited with “discovering” America. Columbus wasn’t the first European to reach the Americas as Leif Ericsson of the Vikings had already visited. However, it was Columbus’ journey and discovery that led to the European colonization of the Americas.

The Portuguese, Spanish, French, English, and Dutch all sent more explorers and settlers following Columbus’ return telling about the riches of this new land.

Columbus first landed in the Americas on October 12, 1492 and the anniversary of the day has been celebrated in the new world ever since. The 300 and 400 year anniversaries in 1792 and 1892 were big events in the United States, but it wasn’t until 1937 that the day was made an official federal holiday. Originally the holiday was on October 12, but was changed to the second Monday of October in 1971.

While our site never had SSL (encrypted communication between you and a site), this was never much of an issue as most of the pages on our site do not ask for any information or transmit personal between your browser and our servers. The exception would be our tenant portal and application page. However, those two pages are actually connections between your web browser and our property management system which IS secure.

So even though the only two pages that have data transmitted were secure already, we decided to go ahead and upgrade our site to have SSL functionality. What does this mean for you? Well, now rather than having a “unlocked” padlock on the top left of your browser, you get a nice little ‘locked’ icon.

Cool eh? 🙂
