Local Real Estate Related Service Providers Kingwood, Humble, Atascocita, Houston TX I am often asked for my professional recommendations for service providers involved in real estate and financial investment.  The most common service providers involved at any one time include an insurance/risk aversion advisor, a home mortgage consultant, a financial planner, an estate planner, a home and pest inspector, and a title insurance representative.  Over the last 5 years in building a successful business, I have made it my intentions to surround myself with others that have the same values and integrity in the ways they conduct their businesses.  They must also have sound ethical standings both in the work place and in their personal lives because they are interconnected.  By sending my clien...

My Home is Not Selling - Pricing Misconceptions that Lead to Undesired Results "My home is not selling, why?"  This is often the result of two things first being price and second that the current real estate agent is not sharing with you the appropriate market information to position in your pricing to achieve your goal of selling your home.  It is very important to price your property at competitive market value at the signing of the listing agreement.  Historically, your first offer is usually your best offer. Here are some pricing misconceptions. It is not what you paid!It is not what you need!It is not what you want!It is not what your neighbor says!It is not what another agent says!It is not what it would cost to rebuild today!

Pictures and Video of Hurricane Ike in Kingwood TX Staying at home for my first hurricane was truly an unforgettable experience. Two days before the storm came ashore, Hurricane Ike was expected make landfall somewhere between Corpus Christi and Freeport. Being about 25 miles north of Houston, I was only expecting tropical storm force wind and some rain. As the storm approached the projected landfall kept moving north, and moved north again. The eye crossed Galveston island, made a hard right turn, and crossed right over Kingwood TX. Surprise. The outer bands of the storm really started to be felt around midnight with the power going out at 12:03 am. Looking outside our exposed windows green flashes filled the skies and transformers began to blow. The wind begin to howl and it did not s...

Kingwood Real Estate Market - The Truth Found in the Numbers What is extremely frustrating to me as a professional in the residential real estate market in the northeast Houston area including Kingwood, Humble and Atascocita, is that I hear real estate agents throwing around numbers and formulating opinions based on anything and everything but the numbers.  Make sure the agent you hire either to purchase a home or sell your home knows the numbers. Let's take a look at August 2007 vs. August 2008 to see how much of a difference exists between the two years to decide whether or not much change has happened to the local market despite all the national hype of a crashing real estate market.

Yes, it has been tough, but I know of people having it tougher following the passing of hurricane Ike.  We are now experiencing day 9 without electricity and though we experienced a God sent cool front the first few days it is steadily getting hotter outside.  My wife, Laurie, has just wrapped up the first trimester of pregnancy and is not enjoying this the least bit.  We were finally able to get our 2-year-old daugheter back into school today since they were some of the lucky few in the Kingwood area to regain power.  I am sitting outside of the Harris County Public Library branch located on Rustic Woods in Kingwood feeding off the WiFi.  Though it is tough, there are people dealing with much more. The Blessings that I have received from this tragedy are many, first that my family is s...

Jennifer Shuble, a graduate of Kingwood High School, has won the Gold at the 2008 Olympics. Jennifer won the Olympic Gold Medal for her performance in the Paralympic Games' Women's Cyclist 500m Time Trial. She not only won the Gold but broke the world's record! Jennifer has set a new record for the CP4 class. Not bad for a newcomer to the U.S. track cycling program, which she joined in 2006.   Jennifer's name may not have been world known before, but it is now. Before her win, she wasn't even considered a "big contender".   However,  other cyclists and cycling enthusiasts now know that Jennifer is a competitor to be contended with. Jennifer's family and friends already knew she was a champion to contend with long before the Olympic Games. Jennifer received the high honor of being appoin...

Annouced Sunday, the Treasure Secretary Henry Paulson laid out a rescue plan to keep mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae from plummeting do to the unchecked and irresponsible fiscal policies in the industry.  Both companies were placed into a conservatorship, replaced both CEO's and boards of directors (Although I believe I heard that the prior CEO's are assisting in the transition, and why would they take individuals that allowed the companies to be in their current state to assist in a transition.  Do we not remember Enron, and the consequences from poor leadership?), and developed a plan to infuse billions of dollars to stabalize the housing market.  Where do those billions come from, We the People?  Are we moving to nationalizing the housing market?  What happened to allowing...
