bryan: For Renters: Remember These Points! - 04/21/14 02:58 AM
When your budget is tight there are lots of things to consider when you’re renting.  The actual rent is important, but so are energy efficiency, average utility bills, length of commute, renter’s insurance, and pets.   
 
Renting an apartment on the top floor of a walk-up, for example, might get you a break on the rent.  However, if you find out your electric bill is hundreds of dollars more than the tenant on the first floor because your air conditioner is working overtime, the savings quickly disappears.

bryan: Military Relocation Professional Certification - 01/04/14 03:59 AM

As soon as I heard about this certification I registered for it. After working with several homebuyers who used their VA Loan entitlements and needed to move in tight timeframes I knew this would help fill in the gaps in my knowledge. There is a LOT to take into consideration when working with a military homebuyer.

bryan: Leasing Season around the corner in Aggieland - 01/02/14 11:31 PM
The College Station leasing season is just around the corner. It is beginning to ramp up now because the spring semester begins in less than two weeks. Transfer students, visiting professors and exchange program participants are trickling into our city to attend Texas A&M University or Blinn College. There is a challenge to find a lease that will last less than 12 months for these renters, but many landlords are happy if the lease can be written so their properties are vacant by September so they can find a new tenant for the entire next school year.
