As mentioned in a previous blog, I have some clients here from out of state to buy a home. They will be moving here and starting a new job on November 1. This is specifically a house hunting trip; pre-approved, down payment in the bank, motivated buyer. They identified several homes via the inter...

The Houston, TX market is a strange one indeed. Aren't they all? Hurricane Ike brought the mosquitos in swarms but luckily, it brought buyers. We are not in as depressed a market as much of the USA but lately buyers have been in short supply. Since Ike's exit from the area, we have had cooler tem...

Ike and all his fury has been here and gone. I was fortunate--limbs down in the yard, pool a mess but no real damage.

Honestly, I do not think anyone would have ever guessed that The Woodlands Highlanders would shut out the Katy Tigers at the new Woodforest Stadium last night. I am one of those die-hard fans who has had season tickets for years and years. Because of the long-term relationship I have with season ...

Yesterday was hard for me. I have really been struggling with the concept of customer service lately. You may have seen my post about customer service , spurred on by the lack of it at the car dealership. I had the opportunity yesterday to experience extremely poor customer service from Reliant E...

Fellow Realtors, I need to know how you would handle a situation. I will absolutely not pass judgment but want to gather some opinions. I represent a buyer who has been looking at homes for about 3 weeks. The first day out we saw a great home, but as he was a first-time buyer, he did not feel any...

AAA: that is my motto right now! Anxiously awaiting Aubrey! We are about to be grandparents again for the 4th time, the second time in 3 months. Our daughter-in-law, Amanda, went to the doctor today and she is moving right along but little Aubrey has not arrived yet. Amanda looks fantastic and st...
