valero energy: Southern Sweet Tea - 05/17/08 04:59 AM
Drinking sweet tea is one of the oldest and most exceptional of Southern traditions. As Dolly Parton's character in Steel Magnolias puts it, it's the "house wine of the South." The South reveres its traditions, and sweet tea is one of them. As an April Fools' Day prank in 2003, Georgia State Rep. John Noel introduced a bill that would have made it a misdemeanor for a restaurant owner not to include sweet tea on the menu.

valero energy: FICO 850 - 04/08/08 02:21 PM
What is FICO 850? Very simply, FICO scores range from a low of 300 to a high of 850. FICO 850 is the numerical representation of a perfect credit score.
Since the early 1970s, most of the consumer reporting agencies (CRAs) have been using computers to aggregate all the information that comes into them each day from creditors everywhere.
Each of the three major CRAs has a partnership with (F)air, (I)saac & (Co)mpany (FICO). Assuming your credit report is identical at all three CRAs, your score should also be the same at all three. Often, however, the various CRAs have different (and … (5 comments)

valero energy: Curb Appeal - 04/01/08 11:10 AM
The Importance of Curb Appeal
The first view, the first impression, a buyer has of your house is the curbside view so it is very important to make sure your home has great curb appeal.  After all, no matter how wonderful the interior of a home is, if a buyer declines to view the interior based on the appearance of the exterior,  your house will stay on the market longer and you may get a lower offer than you would otherwise.  
Keep sidewalks cleared. Mow, water, weed, and edge the lawn. Paint faded window trim. Since the color yellow evokes a buying emotion, plant yellow … (9 comments)

valero energy: Gone To Texas - 03/28/08 12:39 AM
According to Census Bureau estimates released Thursday, four metropolitan areas in Texas were among the biggest population gainers in 2006 and 2007.  At the top of the list is the combined Dallas - Ft. Worth area which grew by more than 162,000 residents.  A report issued earlier this month by Global Insight reported that housing prices in the Dallas area were undervalued by as much as 30 percent.  16 percent of Americans who moved to other states between July 2006 and July 2007 came to Texas.  Much of the growth in the South is credited to relatively strong local economies and housing prices that … (0 comments)

valero energy: Relocation - 03/25/08 02:15 PM
Relocating can be stressful, expensive and time consuming.  Your move may be prompted by a new job, retirement, military orders, or a wish for a change in climate.  With relocation, you risk the expense of buying a new home and selling your existing home, and the time and effort of moving your family to a new location where you hope the entire family will be happy.
Relocation companies do a good job of specializing in helping manage the logistics of your move, such as making sure your furniture arrives in a timely manner.  But finding the right neighborhood or town is often … (0 comments)
