Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty ®

 

LOL...and yes, there is actually a small town for sale down here in Texas...about 70 miles outside of Austin called Albert Texas..although the asking price is $2.5 Million, the last I checked the ebay bid was well below 10K :).

Albert Texas is about 13 acres, has a School house, a dance hall and an ice-house

Check out the pictures here http://www.alberttexas.com/home/pics.php

I know I don't get any money for further advertising this property, but hey, I've got to share this story :).  How many times to get a whole town for sale? :) 

so check out http://www.alberttexas.com for yourself to see what Albert Texas is all about!, and if you need a buyers agent, I sure can help you out :)!!

Yeah, you're welcome   !, and what's even weirder, is that it's actually already owned by someone :)
