Thinking about moving to the Tulsa, Oklahoma area and trying to figure out which suburbs are really worth it? In today’s video, Jennie Wolek with The Wolek Group breaks down some of the most talked-about and sometimes overrated suburbs in the Tulsa metro and helps you decide whether they’re a BUY or BYE based on your lifestyle, budget, and home-buying goals.

We’re diving into what it’s actually like to buy a home in Bixby, Jenks, and Owasso, plus the best alternative suburbs many buyers overlook, including Glenpool, Coweta, Sand Springs, Sapulpa, Claremore, Verdigris, and more.

This video focuses on what matters most to buyers today:
✔️ Home prices
✔️ Inventory
✔️ Amenities
✔️ Commute
✔️ Neighborhood feel
✔️ New construction vs. resale
✔️ Realistic expectations in this market
