listing: How to get rid of telltale furniture dents in carpet - 11/18/11 12:52 AM
I just sold a house with carpet in the bedrooms and family room. The tenants who lived there previously apparently had some very heavy furniture. The dents in the carpet were still there, even after the carpet was shampooed and steam-cleaned--twice. I wish I had known about these two methods of removing the dents so I could have passed it on to my client. Thanks to Barbara, I will know next time. Check it out:

This blog post encompasses just about everything a seller (and an agent) would need to consider before putting a listing on the market. It's a very impressive and useful checklist from a creative mind indeed. Thank you for taking the time to write this, Sebastian!

listing: SOLD! Stylish and charming home for sale at 30 Caswell Circle, San Antonio, TX 78240 - 03/29/11 11:42 AM
This home is in one of my favorite neighborhoods near the South Texas Medical Center, UTSA, and USAA insurance headquarters. Everything you need is nearby, including the brand-new, expanded HEB supermarket and Huebner Oaks shopping center, as well as lots of great places to eat (like Aldo's!). It's only a short distance to shopping meccas such as La Cantera Mall and The Rim, and a little farther the other direction to downtown.
But you'll be tempted just to stay in and cook dinner, or go out on the deck to rustle up a barbecue for your friends. This home is ready … (3 comments)

listing: Fit for a chef: Home for sale at 178 High Oak, Universal City, Texas 78148 - 02/21/11 09:16 AM
The sellers of this home bought it just a few years ago and promptly updated the kitchen, which is fabulous. Now they are moving out of state to a new job and town that will bring their kids closer to the grandparents. That should help them get over the sadness of leaving their house and saying goodbye to all the friends they've made here.
Meadow Oaks is a small, established neighborhood on the northeast side of the San Antonio metro area. It is within easy commuting distance of Randolph Air Force Base and Fort Sam Houston, but tucked away from traffic. … (5 comments)

listing: SOLD! Gorgeous updated home at 1 Camden Oaks in Inwood, San Antonio, Texas 78248 - 01/22/11 02:37 AM
My client did a fabulous job updating this home in the gated neighborhood of Inwood on San Antonio's north side. It is situated on a corner lot, with a greenbelt in back and a large lot next door. There are lots of beautiful live oak trees surrounding the home, and the patios and rooftop terrace take advantage of the shade they bring. My favorite is the master bathroom; it is sumptuous, with marble floors, a whirlpool tub, separate granite-clad vanities, and a large walk-in shower.

listing: Sold! Another beautifully updated home in Hollywood Park: 379 Donella, San Antonio, Texas 78232 - 08/13/10 01:43 PM

Got deer? If not, just move to popular Hollywood Park, on the north side of the San Antonio metro area. Homes here are on large, tree-studded lots, and deer roam happily, coexisting with joggers and dog walkers. This home was completely remodeled, so the happy new owners can watch the deer through the windows of their gourmet kitchen!

listing: Sold! Another beautifully remodeled home for sale: 14219 Bold Ruler, San Antonio, TX 78248 - 02/19/10 09:20 AM
I am excited to be marketing another remodeled and updated home for sale in Churchill Estates. This one has dual master bedrooms, three full baths, a huge covered patio and extended deck, plus a swimming pool. Even though it has not exactly been warm in San Antonio the last couple of months, the pool already looks quite inviting! Some home buyers are going to be very happy in this home come summertime.

listing: 3007 Oak Sprawl: Refreshed, renewed, and remodeled home in San Antonio, Texas - 01/20/10 01:00 AM

This is another lovely remodeled home that has been transformed with hardwood floors in the living areas, ceramic tile, granite-tile counter tops, and new carpet upstairs. One of the more attractive features of this Sitterle-built home is the tile roof. It also has a three-car garage, unusual in this neighborhood. Stately live oak trees dot the front and back yards and are set off by professional landscaping and newly sodded grass. It's a great home in an established neighborhood, and ready for new residents.

listing: Sold! a beautifully remodeled home at 13127 Hunters Valley in Hunters Creek, San Antonio, Texas 78230 - 10/11/09 02:09 AM
This lovely home is in one of my favorite neighborhoods in north-central San Antonio, Hunters Creek. (I know, I have a lot of favorite neighborhoods.) The home has access to a pretty deck from the kitchen, breakfast room, and sun room, as well as access to a patio from the sun room and the master bedroom. You can step right outside and enjoy the view of lush grass and flowering shrubs, dappled with shade from several oak trees. Plus, the interior has been completely updated with new flooring and fixtures, with granite counter tops and tile in all the wet areas.
Enjoy the … (4 comments)

listing: 385 Brush Trail Bend for sale in the Estates of Deer Creek, Cibolo, Texas - 08/31/09 10:10 AM
This home has just been refreshed and renewed with more neutral-colored paint in the living areas. Thanks to the recent rains, the grass is looking greener and the landscaping is perking up. The sellers spent tens of thousands of dollars planting mature trees and flowering shrubs, and they maintained the home very well. The covered patio is quaint and cozy.
I like the flexibility of this Ryland floor plan, with a bonus room upstairs that could be a family room, workout studio, media room, or gameroom; or some combination of those. It has a storage closet, wood blinds, and added shelving. The … (5 comments)

listing: A beautifully remodeled garden home at 8209 Windway in Windcrest, TX - 07/20/09 10:35 AM
I love these remodeled homes in older, closer-in neighborhoods like Windcrest. You have the advantage of being in an established, convenient neighborhood close to amenities, plus an updated home to add to your comfort. The sellers did a great job updating this home and enhancing the landscaping.

This lovely home is a good example of what you can find northeast of the San Antonio city limits, but still in Bexar County and the San Antonio metro. This area is convenient for commuting to Fort Sam Houston, the city's largest employer, or Brooke Army Medical Center, as well as to Rackspace's new headquarters, … (4 comments)
