fort worth: Texas My Texas, all Hail the Mighty State.....Ok....don't judge until - 04/22/10 06:16 AM
You see the Bluebonnets that are blooming right now!
If you love wild flowers ...in any state...you will love driving the Texas Highways and seeing the blooming flowers in all areas of Texas right now.
The Bluebonnet is the state flower of Texas and we could not have picked a more beautiful or dramatic flower.  They only bloom for a few weeks and all along the roads people can be seen stopping to photograph their families with these brightly colored fields.
 
When First Lady, Lady Bird Johnson choose beautifying America as her pet project, planting wildflowers was a natural spinoff.  … (2 comments)

fort worth: Sometimes It is Best to FIRE a SELLER! Yikes! - 02/02/10 06:52 AM
If you are like me, most of the time you have clients who are cooperative and who are extremely motivated to sell their properties.  In fact, the most motivated sellers welcome most suggestions that their agent provides.  Here are some of the symptoms that may lead you to rethink if the "problematic" seller is worth the aggrevation.
*   Has a demanding style of asking questions
*   Becomes angry if showings are requested even though the showing instruction states a specific preference of notification or cancels showings that have been set up
*  Talks to you like you do not know how … (66 comments)

fort worth: TEXAS-TARRANT-FORT WORTH....and Short Sale Properties - 09/22/09 08:00 AM
I have done many Short Sales over the years and .....they used to be a lot easier to do!
This year, what I find is that there are several problems and issues to deal with and I am speaking from the Listing Agent side of the Transation.
1.  Sellers who are facing foreclosure have limited knowledge about Short Sales and how they work.
2. Buyers agents have limited information about how Short Sales and Short Sale Negotiations work.
3. Many Listing Agents, do not have a clue about how Banks deal with short sale transactions.
------------------This lack of information and lack … (2 comments)

fort worth: July Success for my Sellers! - 08/11/09 02:06 PM
I count my lucky stars that I make home and work in Tarrant County, Texas!  While the market has been a bit strange since February, it all came together for my clients in June and July to produce sales on almost all of my listings!  I have had colleagues ask...."how did you do that?"  My answer is that I worked closely with my sellers and we looked honestly and objectively at our current market.  The workable word here is CURRENT..
The market of last year is gone, The market of last month is gone............we are just IN THE NOW OF this … (2 comments)

Fort Worth, Texas...the city, Park Glen, the Subdivision,
Mr. and Mrs. Perfect Seller........the owners.  This home was put in tip top shape before the sellers signed their listing agreement.  They made sure everything was as nice as it could be and they also had recently redone the kitchen to include beautiful tumbled marble counter tops.  The neutral carpet is spot free, the back living room view is of the Green Belt, and upstairs has a balcony overlooking the backyard and the greenbelt.  Wow........Price $148,000.  If all that is not enough, it is in walking distance to Bluebonnett Elementary School, which is … (0 comments)

fort worth: Short Sales and Uninformed Agents and Their Buyers - 03/17/09 01:15 AM
 
 
Maybe you have experienced the Uninformed Agent while working through a Short Sale:  Most recently it has begun taking much longer to work through a short sale and that often tests the patience of the buyer and the buyer's agent.  It seems that no matter how many times the uninformed agent is told that the process has to be worked through on the bank's terms, there is a level of mistrust and disbelieft.  It seems that each transaction is different from the last.  Each bank has their own process and each tests the professional behavior of the listing agent … (0 comments)
