The new year is upon us and one of the top resolutions for 2015 is to make more money.  Some resolutions are easier said than done.  You can’t just walk up to your boss and demand that $5,000 raise.  If you are lucky and you work hard you will probably earn it.  That is still a maybe in my book.  No matter how hard you work, some things in life are...

Not all homes in Austin sell at original list price.  Looking for a deal?  These properties have dropped their price over 15% in the last 60 days.  Sometimes agent or sellers price their homes too high and have to drop their price to get inline with expectations.   A 15% price drop tell me that the seller was getting a little greedy.   Give us a call and...

Just the other day while I was sitting in church I was overcome with this feeling that I was not doing enough to create lasting memories of my life.  I don’t really know why I started thinking about that, it was not the topic of the sermon, it just came over me.  I could not get it out of my head for the whole service.  I finally had to take out my...

If you have been reading my updates or following me on Facebook you know by now that I am learning to fly.  It is a lot of fun, but it is taking way longer than it should.  Silly things like work or the weather keep getting in the way.  I expected those to slow things down, but what I did not expect was having to change flight instructors. As I have found...

The time has come for you to purchase a home and maybe you’ve heard from friends or family about how many multiple offers and bidding wars there are on houses.  You may have also heard the saying, “Cash is King,” before.  So, as a buyer who is getting a mortgage, how can you compete against a cash buyer? According to Realtor Magazine and...

It’s official, we have expanded our reach to the forth city in Texas.  Houston, Austin, and Dallas are just not the same without San Antonio.  San Antonio has just become the newest place we sell homes.  That’s right, we just can’t stay in one place.  It must be at ADHD the doctors told me I had growing up.  Anyway, sorry for the delay in...
