Hey, are there any deals out there?  Have you heard that question, too?  I hear it a lot and the answer is yes, just look around!  I live in the Lake Conroe/Woodlands Texas area.  We've been relatively lucky in that we haven't seen prices crumbling, tumbling downward like other parts of the count...

Do you realize that because you and the three other REALTORS they called were "too busy" to help out, you have missed out on $998,875 in sales so far? I am so glad I was able to h...

I realize that some people may think an inspection done prior to putting a home on the market is just a crazy idea and a complete waste of money. These very same people may think that the less they know about something, the better, or have the,"I'll deal with it when we get there." attitude. But ...

Well, I finally did it! I broke free from the “branded” real estate company to go out on my own. In making the decision, I found that almost everyone I spoke with, clients, friends, past clients, neighbors, etc. were very supportive and encouraging.
