This was a great 4th of July weekend both with family....and my farm. I noted a few days ago that our little group was sponsoring our 4th of July celebration in two communities: http://activerain.com/blogsview/1139335/why-would-you-work-on-the-4th-rather-than-be-with-family-and-others- One was a parade of about 500 and the other was a luncheon of around 1000 people.

Smart buyers start early searching and learning about where they want to live. They know the more information they acquire
the more confident they will be in making a final choice. Texas has so much to offerfor anyone looking for that special place...your own green acres.

Question: Like many others today, I have found myself without a job. My background has been a administrative assistant leasing consultant for apartments, customer service and many years ago selling ladies fashion. I have enjoyed the leasing better than the other. I am a hard worker and love people. I have always wanted to be a realtor and many of my friends tell me I shoud go into real estate. However, I have to support myself and my son and I do not have the money for my schooling. Is there anyone in the N. Austin/Pflugerville/Round Rock area have any openings that I could work at in the office and get some training? I will do what ever I can and need to do.
My name is Lorraine Cook and I can be reached at 512 670-5004.
Thank you in advance.

Demand has been WAY up over the past couple of weeks. I anticipate a terrific first quarter for 2009. |

|
Austin's activity level seems to be up overall this month. Rates are super-low - I think 2009 will be terrific. |
|
|
Rates are falling like crazy but not enough mortgage applicants can qualify. |

Investors are out hunting |

Investors are out and about looking for panicking sellers |

Austin's economy remains fundamentally strong, but with less activity because of the national stuff occurring. Great time to buy! |
