Dear readers,
Last night I was fortunate to attend a reception held for prospective Aggies and their parents. I never cease to be amazed at the intelligence and enthusiasm of today's "youth." If this group was any hint of the quality of next year's freshman class of Aggies, our next class will be outstanding.
Over 10,000 prospective Aggies and parents are in town for Aggieland Saturday, which is a University-wide open house for prospective Aggies and their parents. There is a vast selection of activities available, many sponsored by different colleges and departments of the university. Follow this link to Aggieland Saturday Activities.
One Day. One Place. Aggieland.
I had some time to visit with parents last night and speak frankly about the local and national economic situation. Many parents are surprised how insulated (so far) College Station real estate is from what's going on in other areas. We spoke a bit about "No Boom, No Bust," and how that applies to our area.
I referred many parents to the monthly market report section of my Website for more insight from brokers and lenders. This page contains an RSS feed (for those using a RSS reader) and also a link to sign up for the monthly version of the market report.
Today we are also launching two new sections of SamWhiteRealty.com, designed for parents and students seeking more information on purchasing student housing. Those sections are:
These new sub-domains, combined with search.SamWhiteRealty.com and marketreports.SamWhiteRealty.com are just part of our commitment to bring excellent content and access to our clients.
On a related note, Texas A&M's Parents Weekend will be held April 17-19, 2009...the event's 90th. anniversary.
We hope you have an excellent Aggieland Saturday, and wish our new friends an informative day on campus and a safe drive home.
Blue skies,
