lubbock real estate: The Magic Number - Your Lubbock Home's Value - 04/09/16 08:52 AM
The Magic Number or Everything you wanted to know about your home’s VALUE, but were afraid to ask!
In your eyes, your home may be priceless!    HOME is where you raised your children, held parties on the patio, cooked Thanksgiving dinner, and measured your children’s height on the inside of a closet door.  If you want to know your home’s practical value, such memories and emotions must take the backseat.
 Lubbock County Appraisal District’s website – lubbockcad.org (LCAD) is a great place to start exploring.  The Tax District assigns a taxable value for your home.  However, don’t rely just on the LCAD valuation.  As a … (0 comments)

lubbock real estate: 10 Things Real-Estate Agents Won't Tell You - Or Will They? - 04/01/14 06:19 AM
My husband pointed out an article in Sunday's (3/30/14) Lubbock Avalanche Journal - 10 Things Real-Estate Agents Won't Tell You.  It was published in The Wall Street Journal and I found it to be more educational than critical.  Over the next few weeks I'm going to address each supposition.

I work hard for my clients and enjoy helping them 'succeed' whether that be buying or selling at … (3 comments)

lubbock real estate: Auction at Lubbock County Courthouse Gazebo - 11/11/11 05:40 AM
Who knew that in addition to real estate one could purchase judgments and account receivables at auction!  Yesterday there was an auction and a lone participant bid $30,001.00 and won almost $3 million dollars in account receivables and judgments tied to swindler Benny Judah.  So for the 30K investment the bidder has a potential for a tremendous return IF he/she can collect.  The court apparently collected over 15K from these accounts.  The bidder may have a good lawyer on retainer who will go halves with him on collections and a big tough guy enforcer. 
In the newspaper there was posted a list of numerous Lubbock, Shallowater, … (0 comments)

I just looked and found 41 homes listed for sale in the Lubbock neighborhood of Tech Terrace.  These Lubbock homes range in price from $79,900 to $879,000.  Tech Terrace if a popular Lubbock neighborhood for a couple of reasons...or more.  The Tech Terrace neighborhood is bordered by Texas Tech University on the north and by the hospital district on the west.  It is a short and sweet commute for people employed at or going to school at Texas Tech.  Many who live in the neighborhood just walk or bike to school and work.  The neighborhood also has a unique appeal and … (0 comments)
