Often when I sell a New Home... when the buyers and I get around to doing their "pre-closing walk-thru" with the Builder, my buyers sometimes ask me whether or not they should first get their home inspected by a Professional Home Inspector.Of course, that should always be the buyer's choice to make.  And I would always encourage buyers to do what they felt they needed to do to insure in their mind that they were getting a quality-built home.Sometimes, though, the buyers are extremely tight on cash.  The $350 or so that the typical home inspector may charge can be a real hardship on them.  So, what should they do ?Well, as usual, the answer is "it depends."  Sometimes the buyers DO get the home inspected by an outside inspector before they do their "walk thru" with the builder.  I have f...

The Alliance Corridor in Fort Worth, TX is a fantastic place to live, work and play.  The Hillwood Company has done a fantastic job of accomplishing and implementing its vision of building first class commercial, industrial, and retail space.  Now, Hillwood is continuing to expand its vision with the town square concept at Heritage Trace Parkway and I-35W in North Fort Worth.  With Cabelas in place and Sam Moon soon to come, the Alliance Corridor is fast becoming a shopper's paradise.  Perhaps the best thing about this area are the home prices and the cost of living.  Although energy prices have risen in past years in Texas, Fort Worth continues to provide great opportunites for home buyers and business owners alike.

Hello Friends,I wanted to let you know about this group of comedians. They are called the "Four Day Weekend". I have been twice and when friends come into town I love to take them to see these guys. The comedy style is pretty PG and hilarious. It is a cross between "who's line is it anyway" and "stand-up". The atmosphere is relaxed being that it is in one of Fort Worths old Stage theaters with theater seating. No small cramped tables with so much smoke you have to bring a fan to see the act. There is a open bar and lounge before you enter the theater. One of the two times I have been there, there was a new act/singer in the lounge. As you see this is a bit more upscale and for more of the mature audience, there are some young patrons there as well.I make this a must see when you visit t...

I just found out an interesting thing.  While the town of South Lake is a wonderful place to live there are some who moved there ten years ago and are ready to get out due to the rapid growth. If you are one of these people let me know.  I have lots of contacts in places like Argyle, Bartonville, Flower Mound (the western side), Roanoke, Trophy Club, and Justin.  As a matter of fact I know a nice house in a new neighborhood in Argyle that the owner is selling it himself.  It is a wonderful place.  Call me and I'll make arrangements.  The owner is a friend of mine.If you are ready to move to a Downtown Fort Worth condo I can help you.How about the "up-and-coming" Fort Worth South area?  There are some really neat things happening in that historic neighborhood.I have probably the most rel...

    My Buyers emailed me with 17 homes that they wanted to see in a specific area.  They said that we could do the home tours over the course of a couple days because 17 homes is a lot in one day...                                    Well, I am Super Agent...                                                                              (please note...this is not really me...)          I researched every home and mapped them all out and informed my Buyers that we could do it all in one day and within 2.5 - 3.0 hours .... I set up all the appointments.   Only one of the homes had the lockbox on the back door and there is security for which I get the code and password.           Unfortunately, this was the Neighborhood Garage Sale Day.....  Needless to say, there were people and cars everyw...

There is going to be a ski resort built in Ft. Worth, TX, just west of Dallas.  This resort is going to be a Bearfire Resort.  Bearfire has several other resorts across the country, but when they're done with this one, it's going to be the largest one built yet.Now, you're probably thinking, It doesn't snow very much in DFW, muchless does it keep a consistently cold temperature during the winter months.  Well, these factors won't be of any concern.  The "snow" is going to be some kind of carpet called Snowflex that allows for a smooth skiing experience. I've been been skiing before, so I won't be able to judge the difference, but I'm very excited for the opportunity to learn! Along with the slopes, there will be a 600 room hotel and convention center! (courtesy of the Star Telegram)They...

By Barbara Newton   Nu Home Source Realty    Dallas  Real  Estate  Forum Before they approve you for a home mortgage, lenders want to be sure that you will be able to repay it.  They will take a detailed look at your financial situation to determine this.  There are several things you can do to improve your chances of getting approved for a home mortgage.  Not only will these actions help your approval they will also prepare you for managing your home mortgage payments once you obtain the home mortgage.

When an offer is made on a house, it usually accompanied with a check.  This check is what is known as an earnest money deposit, made to let the seller know that the buyer is earnest in his or her attempt to purchase the home.  An earnest money deposit distinguishes serious buyers from those who aren’t so sure about the purchase. The deposit amount is different from one purchase to the next.  Many factors can sway the amount of the deposit.  In seller’s markets, earnest money deposits are often larger than in buyer’s markets.  This is because properties tend to have more inquiries in seller’s markets.  Thus, it takes a little more to convince the seller to accept a certain offer. In a steady or buyer’s market, you shouldn’t make an earnest money deposit in an amount that is greater than...

 In the early history of Fort Worth Texas one area of Downtown Fort Worth was known as Hell's Half Acre. This location was one of the most notorious high crime Red Light District. Hell's Half Acre started during the city's heyday as a stop for cowboys taking cattle to Kansas in the early 1870s. As the Half Acre became more popular the area covered more than two acres and the level of crime and violence also grew. It wasn't until a Baptist Preacher named J. Frank Norris in 1911 began to link certain businessmen with property in the Acre and he announced their names from the pulpit at the First Baptist Church in Fort Worth. As the battle against Hell's Half Acres heated up in 1912, Norris's church was burned to the ground.  Norris continued the attacks on the Acre but accomplished little ...

For those familiar with the Westside of Fort Worth one of the landmarks is Camp Bowie Boulevard. Camp Bowie is the famous Red Brick Road. The Boulevard starts at the intersection of 7th Street and University and continues west then become Camp Bowie West. Camp Bowie has been a favorite place for young people to go cruising for decades. In the 60's and part of the 70's Griff's was the place to meet people. That was when I was growing up. Now the place to hang out must be the Sonic Drive In. The old Ridglea Theater is another landmark on the Boulevard. It is just west of the intersection of Camp Bowie and Bryant Irvin Road. It once was the picture show but now is a place where bands play. Most of the bands that play at the Ridglea are bands that teenagers listen to. However, about 3 years...

The Cowtown Marathon - Every year in late February the annual Cowtown Marathon is held. Thousands of people run the marathon - half marathon -the 10K or the 5K. I for one have never finished the marathon only because I did not enter. I use to be a runner but one day I quit running and haven't run since. However, I do enjoy watching the runners in the marathon. There is just something special about people that have what it takes to run the marathon. Most runners are not running against other runner but are running to prove to what ever it is within that they can finish. How great it must feel to attempt a marathon and finish. My hat is off to all those who enter the race! If you get a chance to see the runners give them a hand because they are trying. Have great race runners I will be ch...

Give me a home where the buffalo roam. That can be the Fort Worth Nature Center located in the city limits of Northwest Fort Worth. The Fort Worth Nature Center has a little bit of everything from forests, prairies, wetlands and plenty of wildlife. Besure to plan a day to enjoy nature at it's best and bring some comfortable shoes. It is a great place to take in the fresh air and listen to the sounds of nature.
