Old Growth Ventures
Lifting Properties, Elevating Standards.
All About Us
Old Growth rehabilitates, builds, owns, operates unique properties in some of the hottest neighborhoods in Houston. Family owned, we specialize in restoring vintage and historic homes with charm, Mid century Modern, Craftsman, and Victorian. We carefully evaluate each acquisition for location, quality, and soundness, not just economics.
Old Growth Ventures has been rehabilitating and operating properties since 2010 with a single mission: great space. Our family has owned and leased great houses in great neighborhoods in Houston for over 40 years through 3 generations.
In 2019 we launched the Historic Preservation Fund, and partnered with new investors to acquire, restore and lease, historic properties across Houston and Texas. We restore houses to the National Park Service Historic Rehabilitation Guidelines, the gold standard of historic preservation. If you've got a pre-1949 cottage, bungalow, or victorian in need of TLC, we want to hear from you.
Spring Branch
Spring Branch is one of the premier neighborhoods in Houston, just outside the West Loop, minutes to Galleria, Downtown, Midtown, Energy Corridor, and Memorial City, with one of the top school districts in the state, great fooderies and shopping. Many of the original 1950s ranch style houses are still intact and being remodeled. The average lot is twice the size of the inner loop, providing great value for the location. The place to be for anyone looking for more than a townhome at affordable prices with good school and great commute.
Historical Districts
Houston has over two dozen historical districts, including the 5 in the Heights, and numerous more in the Montrose, Museum District and Midtown areas. With original neighborhood charm nestled right in the core of Houston's central business district. Protected by careful planning in thriving, gorgeous communities, historical districts like Old 6th Ward and the Heights Historical District, represent urban living at its best, and showcase the history and diversity of Houston.
Inner 290 Corridor
Undiscovered value of the Inner 290 Corridor, including parts of Spring Branch, Jersey Village, Oak Forest, Timber Grove, this long underappreciated area of Houston has some of the best commutes outside the loop, and is an emerging wedge of affordable, great communities sandwiched between red hot Heights and Garden Oaks on one side, and Spring Branch/ Memorial on the other.
