harris county trustee sale: Harris County Trustee Sale 3-3-2009 - 03/01/09 11:49 PM
Doesn't look like the number of properties to be auctioned off at tomorrows auction has changed from the last time I checked the numbers on realdata.net
I'll be curious to see what happens tomorrow at the auction given the moratorium on foreclosures until March 6th.
The auction starts shortly after 10:00am outside the Family Courthouse.  I would expect that once again there will be media present as well as many of the local investors.

Mr. Boyd, it was a pleasure to have met you!  Jennifer, thanks for the great article!

I went to the Harris County Trustee sale yesterday and wanted to share a couple of notes about what I saw.
Vicente Arenas with Channel Eleven and Jennifer Dawson with the Houston Business Journal were there covering the story for several hours.  I was glad to see that they were covering the auction as the foreclosure situation in Harris County doesn't gets nearly enough media attention.  From talking to Jennifer I think she got a couple of really good story ideas from her experience that I am anxious to read.  I'll make a special trip to Barnes and Noble Friday to see … (0 comments)
