    New Heights luxury condominiums elevate living on bustling and buzzy Yale Street

    A new development in a bustling area in the Heights promises to elevate living for first-time buyers and those looking for a lock-and-leave lifestyle. Bella Heights, a new luxury condominium complex, will offer 28 homes at 829 Yale Street.

    Developed and spearheaded by local real estate firm Nan and Company Properties, the new development features one-, two- and three-bedrooms homes for sale starting in early 2024, per press materials. Those familiar with the area will recognize the lot as a currently abandoned property; the parcel was acquired in January 2023 from Steadfast Funding.

    Targeting those looking to live off of the dense Yale Street, which teems with bars, restaurants, and retail, Bella Heights will offer buyers newly constructed homes — including four, two-level penthouses — with expansive terraces and views. Amenities and features include a welcome lobby with attendant, social room, fitness center, grilling terrace with hot tub and sunning lounge, a guest suite, and a pet walk for furry family members.

    Another perk: controlled access parking, which will relieve the strain of parking in the Heights — always an adventure.

    “We have been working with the design team for Bella Heights to develop a superior lifestyle option for individuals seeking a condominium ownership opportunity,” said Betty M. Harbourt, executive vice president of Nan Properties Developer Services, in a statement.

    “With permits in place, construction is underway with homes and an on-site sales center planned to be unveiled early next year. I expect there to be quite a waiting list of buyers who are anxious to become a part of such a special opportunity.”

    This new development is the latest project by Nan Properties Developer Services, a new division of Nan and Company Properties. The move, per Nan and Company, is meant to help developers oversee sales and marketing of their developments, and positions each project as an independent brand — each leveraged by Nan Properties and the brokerage's top-flight Christie’s International Real Estate affiliation.

    “I am elated that Nan Properties Developer Services was awarded this project, said Nancy Almodovar, CEO of Nan and Company Properties,” in a statement. “The Heights is one of Houston’s most thriving neighborhoods, our firm just opened our new ground-up flagship office in The Heights and is only a block away. I look forward to seeing the energy that the residents will add to Yale Street and the neighborhood.”

    If Nan and Company Properties rings familiar, real estate watchers will recognize the company as the listing reps of Whitehall Ranch, the sprawling, ultra-luxury, 656-acre ranch just an hour away from Houston. As CultureMap recently reported, the regal ranch is currently on the market for $42 million.

    Interested buyers can register for updates on Bella Heights here.










    Nan and Company Properties, the number one digitally driven leading real estate company based in Houston, has announced the exclusive sales and marketing of Bella Heights located at 829 Yale Street. Acquired in January 2023 from Steadfast Funding, Dallas-based Bella Houston Heights has assembled a team of experts to bring new life to the previously abandoned site. A rare and unique offering to the neighborhood, Bella Heights will offer residents newly constructed homes in the heart of the highly desired Heights. There will be one-, two- and three-bedrooms homes available including four two level penthouses with expansive terraces and views.

    Executive Vice President of Nan Properties Developer Services, Betty M. Harbourt adds, “We have been working with the design team for Bella Heights to develop a superior lifestyle option for individuals seeking a condominium ownership opportunity. With permits in place, construction is underway with homes and an on-site sales center planned to be unveiled early next year. I expect there to be quite a waiting list of buyers who are anxious to become a part of such a special opportunity.”

    The condominium homes offer highly designed floorplans with contemporary finishes. Amenities will include a fitness center, guest suite, a social room with an expansive grilling terrace and sun area, a lobby, a front desk attendance, a mail room with package and refrigeration storage for food deliveries, as well as controlled access parking.

    Nancy Almodovar, President and CEO of Nan and Company Properties said, “I am elated that Nan Properties Developer Services was awarded this project. The Heights is one of Houston’s most thriving neighborhoods, our firm just opened our new ground-up flagship office in The Heights and is only a block away. I look forward to seeing the energy that the residents will add to Yale Street and the neighborhood.”

    Nan Properties Developer Services provides developers a comprehensive and a strategic approach to overseeing the sales and marketing of their development by providing dedicated sales expertise and the buyers of such a project. It positions each development directly to the consumer as an independent brand and its product offering is leveraged by Nan Properties and the brokerage's Christie’s International Real Estate affiliation.

    The Developer Services division of Nan Properties prides itself on being a strategic partner working closely as a team from conception to completion providing developers with highly effective services, including concept development, building design, programming, and sales and marketing.

    Here are the 10 hottest Houston real estate headlines of 2025

    The new Texas Heritage Marketplace will be located along Interstate 10 and the newly completed Texas Heritage Parkway in Katy.

    Editor's note: The top real estate stories of 2025 were heavy on buzzy suburbs. Fulshear earned special recognition for its jaw-dropping population growth over the last five and 10 years, while Sugar Land entered the spotlight for its livability and its surprisingly high rental rates. A Houston billionaire was revealed to be one of the top 100 landowners in the country, and a local restaurant duo put their illustrious farm on the market. Read on for the top 10 real estate stories of 2025.

    1. Totally sweet Houston suburb triumphs as No. 3 best place to live in U.S. Relocation marketing platform Livability.com named Sugar Land the third-best place to live in America thanks to its appealing size and affordability. The list was restricted to small and mid-size cities with populations between 75,000-500,000 residents.

    2. Surprise Houston neighbor was No. 1 fastest-growing U.S. city in the last decade. Fulshear's population growth surged over 1,000 percent from 2014-2023, the report found, and the U.S Census estimates the city now boasts a population of more than 42,600 residents. More on Fulshear's booming population later.

    3. Houston oil-and-gas billionaire ranks among America's top 100 landowners. The Land Report revealed that approximately one-quarter of the country's mega-owners of private land have ties to Texas.

    4. 2 Houston suburbs rank among fastest-growing affordable cities in U.S. SmartAsset analyzed 50 U.S. cities to find the most affordable places with large population growth. League City and Pearland ranked No. 7 and No. 11, respectively.

    5. Cozy Houston neighborhood ranked No. 1 best place to live in Texas. Master-planned community Cinco Ranch was given an"A-plus" rating for its family-friendliness, public schools, diversity, and other factors. The area is able to maintain a close-knit community while having a sprawling population of more than 19,000 residents.

    6. Houston developer breaks ground on $400 million, 165 acre Katy project. Houston-based commercial real estate firm NewQuest commenced work on a $400 million, 165-acre, mixed-use shopping center in Waller County at the end of January. The project, called The Texas Heritage Marketplace, will include 750,000 square feet of retail and restaurants, along with 550 apartments in two communities.

    7. This wealthy Houston neighbor is the fastest-growing suburb in America. In a narrowed-down analysis of the top American suburbs that have had the highest population increases from 2018-2023, Fulshear once again came out on top.

    8. 2 Houston-area ZIP codes top 2024 list of hottest U.S. housing markets. Real estate marketplace Opendoor crowned Katy's 77493 ZIP code as the No. 1 hottest U.S. housing market in 2024, while Cypress' 77433 ZIP secured the No. 2 spot. Affordability was cited as the primary factor that drew newcomers to these suburbs.

    9. Houston restaurateurs' 353-acre farm hits the market for $29 million. The sprawling Goodthyme Ranch, owned by Goodnight Hospitality partners Bailey and Pete McCarthy, went on the market in early September. The farm is situated about an hour from downtown Houston in Bellville, and offers a 5,220-square-foot, five-bedroom main house and a 4,560-square-foot, five-bedroom guest house, as well as extensive agricultural and recreational amenities.

    10. This Houston suburb had the highest apartment rent prices in June. Zumper's monthly rental report found Sugar Land apartment prices were more expensive than any other Houston-area city over the summer. Despite having the most expensive rent in the metro in June, the asking rent for a single-bedroom apartment in Sugar Land was technically lower than it was in June 2024.
