Hello,This is the first time that I have submitted a Blog so any comments will be greatly appreciated.  My husband Larry and I have one daughter, son-in-law and one fabulous granddaughter.  We all reside in Longwood Village in Cypress, Texas.  Before moving to Houston 22 years ago we lived in Shreveport, La then my husband decided to move his business to Houston.  For many years my career has led me to work in Customer Service and Accounting with Customer Service being the background for my Real Estate business.  Then I decided to change careers and selected Real Estate specializing in all phases.  As I begin my career I remembered something my parents taught their childern and that was "No matter who they are you always treat people the way you want to be treated."  To this day that is...

The Houston Texans have started off their season 2-0.  Wow! Now that is unbelievable for us.  We beat N.C. Panthers today 34-21.  Our guys are looking great and on the local news tonight that is about all they talked about!  Now, I have friends in North Carolina, and I don't want to brag, but you have to understand, we have really been bad for a long time!  It gets so depressing year after year.  I am so excited and wanted to share.  We are allready doing better than we usually do all year!  lol  I may be exagerating, as I usually give up watching halfway through. I am sure some of you have laughed at the Houston Texans before, but I think times are changing with the Texans.

Building Wealth: The Slow and Steady Wayby Erion Shehaj "The fastest way to get rich quick ... is to not get rich quick" Dave Ramsey Today I wanted to write about a conservative real estate investment strategy that is single handedly responsible for the creation of a large amount of wealth in this country. Chances are you don't hear much about this strategy because it does not make you a millionaire overnight, and as such you will probably not see a spokesperson with a Pepsodent smile taunting it in a late night infomercial as the newest way to hit it big.The investment strategy I am referring to is: The steady and disciplined purchase of rental properties.Now, before you click out of this article because "you have no intention of becoming a landlord", allow me to explain what I mean as...

We hear it in many places over the US and beyond, "If you don't like the weather, wait 10 minutes and it will change."  Houston is no different where afternoon showers are actually quite common in the summertime.   This picture I took two days ago.  I was out sleuthing around a construction site that I think is quite interesting and exciting at the same time.  The sky was blue with amazing cloud formations so I did some walking around, took some photos and headed in to the office.    When I got to the office I had an amazing surprise!  Some of my clients had sent me this gorgeous flower arrangement.  Thank You so much!!                                                                                                                                     I was only at the office about an hou...

Where To StartI guess this first attempt should be an introduction.  You at least have a right to know where I'm coming from.  My credentials if you like, or lack thereof.  I grew up in a refinery town in Southeast Texas.  Among intellectual giants. True giants.  For me the runt, it was a humbling experience. There are fourteen or fifteen certifiable geniuses in that family picture. The runt, definitely not included in that category, is the little fella in the striped shirt at the bottom right corner.I have three degrees...two legitimate, one less recognized but no less hard earned.  A testament to perseverance, not intellect.My early career was spent in the corporate world.  Insurance, Medical research, Banking.  Surprisingly successful, an indication perhaps of the inherent weaknesses...

 Looking for some Southbelt football? Look no further than the Dobie Longhorns!For decades longhorns have been a symbol of strength and pride, forging a rich history for all Texans. Now, the traditions that have characterized J. Frank Dobie High School and forged a link through the years are being retold in a new facility, for a new generation. The story continues.From the burnt orange brick on the outside of the building, to those same colors combined with black and white in the school's interior, the campus serves as the perfect setting for academic excellence and YOU SHOULD SEE THE FOOTBALL FIELD!Varsity Schedule 2007-2008 S = SCRIMMAGE, D = DISTRICT GAME, HC = HOMECOMING, SN=Senior NightDATEOPPONENTSITETIMESEPT6CLEMENTS (S)NEWCOMB FIELD 7:00SEPT14CLEARBROOK (S) DISTRICT STADIUM7:00S...

Flood meeting a success - Southbelt Area residents get behind Corps' planMore than 100 concerned residents attended the Clear Creek drainage improvement meeting on Tuesday, Aug. 21. The discussion included representatives from both the Harris County Flood Control District and the Army Corps of Engineers.Although many in attendance were concerned about their specific needs, the main topic for the evening was the corps' long-range plan to construct a local watershed, an area where all water running off the land drains to a specific location. The proposal, referred to as the National Economic Development (NED) Alternative, would require that all in the area (17 cities and four counties) agree on the project. For the most part, those at the meeting were overwhelmingly in favor of the plan.T...

                               The housing market in the Houston area seems to have held up well... so far!  According to the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR) statistics, sales have come up from the previous couple of months decline.  The inventory entering the market has slowed from its fast pace.  The price segment of the market that is still showing signs of weakness is the $80,000 to $150,000 range.  Most likely, this is a result of the current mortgage climate.  The active listings have increased 9.2% over the same month last year and the median home price has had no significant change during the same time frame.       Existing single-family home sales increased almost 4% from July of 2006.  The homes sold in the month of July of 2007 were on the market an average of 76 days.....
