I often hear clients say they want to buy a home with a Pool in Rowlett and quite honestly, who wouldn't love a Pool during the heat of the Texas summer!?! But to some, caring for a pool is a task they'd rather not have. So what's the next best thing? Buying a Home in a Rowlett Community that has a POOL of course!     The Rowlett Communities that have Community Pools are: Waterview, Lakewood, Mariners Point & Harborview. The Waterview Community is known for their Pool. It's a very FUN swim area (see the pictures below) that has 2 kiddie pools, a big pool with a waterfall cove, a splash water pad and 2 water slides!                              In Rowlett, there is no Public Pool but there is a Water Park, Wet Zone, that offers discounted Season Passes for Rowlett Residents. The Wet Zone...

Are you wondering how the Housing Market in Rowlett is doing? If so, you're not alone ... it's actually a question I get a lot!   Well let me tell you, The Rowlett Housing Market is certainly better than last year! Prices are steadily increasing and by that, I'm talking $10-20,000 more! Because of the increase in Sale Prices, more people are putting their homes on the market to sell. One not so good thing is that the Interest Rates are also starting to increase but they're still lower than what they were when the market crashed.   Soooo what's my 2 cents??? Quite simply put ... If you're contemplating BUYING a home, the longer you wait, the more it's going to cost you! If you're contemplating SELLING your home, now really is a great time!   Below are the Numbers of how the Housing Marke...

Special Government Rehab Program- Rowlett Texas FHA 203K Renovation Loans. This article will explain the little-known special government loan program that is part of FHA (Federal Housing Administration- a department within HUD). A home buyer or existing home owner can remodel or update their home without having a higher cost second lien thanks to this special FHA loan program. You are not allowed to finance "Luxury items" such as a hot tub or swimming pool through this FHA loan program. You can repaint, remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms, replace appliances and flooring, add wallpaper, or even add a room to an existing structure (which will increase the value of your home because of more square footage). There are many advantages with this government loan program but the bigges...
