Fort Worth Real Estate View

Earlier tonight I read a great post written by an Active Rainer who had just CLOSED her very first Active Rain referral.  She was so excited... as well she should have been.  How cool ! Of course, I congratulated her.  I told her how glad I was for her that she "broke the ice" and got her first A...

Ilene and Ben Dover have been talking about putting their home on the market for about a year now.  Well, they have finally made up their minds.  They have decided that "now is the time." They have a fairly good idea of what they think their home is worth. After doing their own homework online wi...

I wrote a post yesterday... What if My Daughter Grows Up to be a Republican ? In the post... I asked for my readers to share some of the things... the websites, the "whatevers" that they went to... when they wanted to distract themselves from either the craziness, or the boredom of the everyday w...

I confess.  I'm somewhat of a political junkie.  I know, what a surprise !  Sure, I blog about real estate stuff, closing techniques, an occasional post about a listing, and sometimes I even get into ideas about financing and seller concessions. I'm also not very shy about writing political posts...

I am sure some of you have figured it out.  Some Active Rainers were not able to access any of the blog posts that are labeled "Member's Only."  The good new is...

In Jean-Paul's post... he t...

I remember the last time I was in the DC area.  It was almost exactly four years ago.  I drove up to Reston, Virginia... just a smidge west'ish of Fairfax... outside the Washington beltway... heading west.  I went there for one of Joe Stumpf's three-day By Referral Only seminars.  The seminar was...

The Fort Worth real estate market is thriving.  Many fence-sitters have hopped off their perch... and jumped into the market. Oh sure... at first it was less of a jump, and more like sticking your little toe into the water... but once new home buyers find that the water is just fine... in they ju...

The Planned Parenthood location in McKinney, Texas which is north of Dallas, Texas... was firebombed this past Tuesday night. Earlier that same day... this location of the women's health clinic was picketed by a local group of anti-abortion protesters. As said in the video below... there were no ...

Amy Winehouse "Went to Black" yesterday.  How sad.  How truly sad. She was way too young.  Such talent and such hurt... and one incredibly bluesy voice. Of course some many of us have seen Amy in the news for quite some time... and most of it, if not all of it, many folks mostly perceived as nega...
