Houston, Tx. rated #1

According to www.Kiplinger.com Houston is the #1 city in nation to work, live and play. They also said Houston should see a modest increase in sales in the 2nd half of 2008 " as more buyers are able to access affordable mortgages, according to the latest forecast by the National Association of Realtors". So this is a bit of good news for all of us here in the Bayou City. Keep your heads guys and girls we will make it though this rough time together.

Yes, Maam, I've been in Katy for 27 years, selling real estate for more than 19. For a long time, I was with Re/Max Westside and Re/Max Cinco Ranch on Mason Rd. I made the switch to Keller Williams Katy @ Cinco Ranch and just love it!

The new website is awesome, very professional. I am in the process of having a blogsite built by the Tomato folks. My last name is Fuelling; it will be "Fuelling Katy" with an old Texaco feel.

Would like to visit with you about lending, call me when you have the time at 281-220-2100, ext 995. Best wishes for a safe and happy holiday! Julie

Katy is a very nice place my husband and I and my two sons moved from Sugar Land about 4 years ago and they just love it here. Thank you for the website review....I also have a forum on my site for members to ask questions and bring up topics related to the industry. Have a Happy fourth of July as well...i will try and call later this evening.

Heath-that is an awesome idea! I don't have any friends that are journalist though. Not too much pull on my end for that happening.
