Check at the address, not the town name

  • Distinguish a Preston Hollow mailing or marketing label from the property’s actual city zoning and any applicable area plan.
  • Compare the street connection to Preston Road or Northwest Highway and inspect the route to everyday destinations from the specific address.
  • School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
